Curtis Ousley (February 7, 1934 – August 13, 1971), who performed under the stage name King Curtis, was an American saxophone virtuoso known for rhythm and blues, rock and roll, soul, blues, funk and soul jazz. Variously a bandleader, band member, and session musician, he was also a musical director and record producer. Adept at tenor, alto, and soprano saxophone, he was best known for his distinctive riffs and solos such as on "Yakety Yak", which later became the inspiration for Boots Randolph's "Yakety Sax" and his own "Memphis Soul Stew".
Curtis Ousley was adopted, with his sister, Josephine Ousley Allen. They were raised together in Fort Worth, Texas. Ousley attended I.M. Terrell High School, and studied and performed music with schoolmate Ornette Coleman.
Ousley started playing saxophone at the age of twelve in the Fort Worth area. He took interest in many musical genres including jazz, rhythm and blues, and popular music. As a student pursuing music, he turned down college scholarships in order to join the Lionel Hampton Band. During his time with Hampton, he was able to write and arrange music and learn guitar. In 1952 Curtis decided to move to New York and became a session musician, recording for such labels as Prestige, Enjoy, Capitol, and Atco. He recorded with Nat Adderley, Wynton Kelly,Buddy Holly, Waylon Jennings and Andy Williams.
Memphis soul, also known as Memphis sound was the most prominent strain of Southern soul. It is a shimmering, sultry style produced in the 1960s and 1970s at Stax and Hi Records in Memphis, Tennessee, featuring melodic unison horn lines, organ, bass, and a driving beat on the drums.
Many of the songs in this style were performed by vocalists backed by the house bands for Stax and Hi Records. The Memphis soul sound was different from the Motown Sound from Detroit. After the rise of disco in the late 1970s, Memphis soul declined somewhat in popularity. Stax Museum of American Soul Music is dedicated to preserving the Memphis sound.
Jim Stewart and Estelle Axton converted an old movie theater into a recording studio at the corner of McLemore Avenue and College Street in Memphis, Tennessee. Shortly after, former WDIA disc jockey Rufus Thomas and his daughter Carla recorded the label's first hit, "Cause I Love You." Soon after, the Mar-Keys, a local R&B group that included Estelle's son, recorded "Last Night."
The Memphis Dynasty is a team of the Women's Spring Football League which began play for the 2010 season in the Women's Football Alliance. Based in Memphis, Tennessee, home games were played at Evangelical Christian School.
For its inaugural season, the Dynasty was known as the Memphis Soul, in the season thereafter, they went without a nickname. In 2012, the team adopted the nickname "Dynasty". After 3 seasons in the WFA, the team moved to the WSFL and continued to play as the Dynasty until the end of the 2014 season. At the end of the 2014 season, the team decided to disband. There were four players that played with the franchise all five years, Ashley Bembow-Scarbough, Terri Gilchrist, Jessica (JP) Plunkett, and Sharon Tatum. The Head Coach, David Gilchrist, was the only coach to remain for all five seasons.
Over the five years of play, the Dynasty compiled a winning percantage of 78.7% (37-10). The Dynasty won four division titles (2 in WFL and 2 in WSFL), two conference titles (American WSFL), and two national tiles (WSFL). Individual league year end honors were 2010 Offensive Player of the Year - WFA (Jessica "JP" Plunkett), 2012 Defensive Player of the Year - WFA (Sharon Tatum), 2013 League MVP - WSFL (GT Shuttles), 2013 Championship Game MVP - WSFL (GT Shuttles), 2013 Coach of the Year - WSFL (David Gilchrist), 2014 League MVP - WSFL (Terri Gilchrist), 2014 Championship Game MVP - WSFL (Anglica "Jelly" Wilson), and 2014 Coach of the Year - WSFL (David Gilchrist). In addition, players received weekly honors as offensive or defensive player of the week (JP Plunkett, Sharon Tatum, Lori Conklin, Shae Blackwell, Tonya Dean).
The Kingpins featuring Lorraine Muller - The Queen of Ska was a ska band from Montréal, Canada that created Stomp Records label with fellow Montreal Ska band The Planet Smashers. The last Kingpins tour took place in 2004, after which the members of the band reformed under the name Lo and the Magnetics founded by Muller in order to reflect the drastic line-up changes (and musical changes) that had taken place since the band's inception in 1994. During their ten-year reign, the band toured extensively in Canada, the U.S., France, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, Italy, and Japan. They are known for their danceable ska rhythms, and their catchy song-writing abilities in both English and French.
The group formed in 1994 by founding members of the Kingpins were Eric 'Boum Boum' Boulanger on drums, Jordan Swift on bass, Ian 'Hot Tub' Hodkinson on organ, and Lorraine Muller (later given the nickname "The Queen of Ska" by Bobby Beaton), on alto saxophone (she later went on to play tenor and baritone saxes, and eventually became the lead singer and band leader.)
The Kingpins was an English pop vocal group, founded in the 1950s in Dewsbury. The group made three appearances supported by Tito Burns' 6-5ers on the BBC television series Six-Five Special between 13 December 1958 and 27 December 1958, and nine appearances supported by Bob Miller and the Millermen on the BBC television series Drumbeat between 4 April 1959 and 20 June 1959, and they contributed two tracks to the LP record entitled Drumbeat that accompanied the television series, the tracks were; a cover of Bobby Freeman's Shame On You Miss Johnson (written by Bobby Freeman), and Bobby Tempest's Don't Leave Me (Like This) (written by Brian Bushby aka Bobby Tempest). The Kingpins were managed by Tito Burns, and in 1959 toured on The Dickie Valentine Show, with The Fraser Hayes Four, and Billie Anthony.
Brian Adams and John Putnam later left The Kingpins, and replaced Vince Hill and Johnny Worth as members of The Raindrops alongside Len Beadle and Jackie Lee.

It was the third of June, another sleepy, dusty Delta
I was out choppin' cotton and my brother was balin' hay
And at dinner time we stopped and walked back to the
house to eat
And Mama hollered out the back door "y'all remember to
wipe your feet"
And then she said "I got some news this mornin' from
Choctaw Ridge"
"Today Billy Joe MacAllister jumped off the
Tallahatchie Bridge"
And Papa said to Mama as he passed around the blackeyed
peas
"Well, Billy Joe never had a lick of sense, pass the
biscuits, please"
"There's five more acres in the lower forty I've got to
plow"
And Mama said it was shame about Billy Joe, anyhow
Seems like nothin' ever comes to no good up on Choctaw
Ridge
And now Billy Joe MacAllister's jumped off the
Tallahatchie Bridge
And Brother said he recollected when he and Tom and
Billie Joe
Put a frog down my back at the Carroll County picture
show
And wasn't I talkin' to him after church last Sunday
night?
"I'll have another piece of apple pie, you know it
don't seem right"
"I saw him at the sawmill yesterday on Choctaw Ridge"
"And now you tell me Billie Joe's jumped off the
Tallahatchie Bridge"
And Mama said to me "Child, what's happened to your
appetite?"
"I've been cookin' all morning and you haven't touched
a single bite"
"That nice young preacher, Brother Taylor, dropped by
today"
"Said he'd be pleased to have dinner on Sunday, oh, by
the way"
"He said he saw a girl that looked a lot like you up on
Choctaw Ridge"
"And she and Billy Joe was throwing somethin' off the
Tallahatchie Bridge"
A year has come 'n' gone since we heard the news 'bout
Billy Joe
And Brother married Becky Thompson, they bought a store
in Tupelo
There was a virus going 'round, Papa caught it and he
died last Spring
And now Mama doesn't seem to wanna do much of anything
And me, I spend a lot of time pickin' flowers up on
Choctaw Ridge
And drop them into the muddy water off the Tallahatchie
