Silas Green from New Orleans was an African American owned and run variety tent show, which in various forms toured the southern states between about 1904 and 1957.
Part revue, part musicomedy, part minstrel show, the show told the adventures of short, "coal-black" Silas Green and tall, "tannish" Lilas Bean. In 1940, Time Magazine said of the show :- "This year their troubles start when they go to a hospital with suitcases labeled M.D. (Mule Drivers), are mistaken for two medicos, end in jail. The show is garnished with such slapstick as putting a patient to sleep by letting him smell an old shoe, such gags as "Your head sets on one end of your spine and you set on the other." Silas gets broad at times, but never really dirty. What keeps it moving are its dances and specialty acts, its gold-toothed but good-looking chorus."
The show was originally written by vaudeville performer Salem Tutt Whitney, who sold or gave it to African American circus owner Ephraim "Eph" Williams (c.1855-c.1935). Williams was the only black circus owner in America. He had set up his first circus in Wisconsin in 1885, and by the mid-1890s owned 100 Arabian horses and employed 26 people. His circus business collapsed around 1902, but soon afterwards he acquired the rights to Silas Green From New Orleans.
Wide Prairie is a posthumous compilation by Linda McCartney. The album was compiled and released in 1998 by Paul McCartney after his wife's death, after a fan wrote in enquiring about "Seaside Woman"; a reggae beat type song which Wings had recorded in 1972, under the name Suzy and the Red Stripes, featuring Linda on lead vocals. Her husband compiled all her recordings with the help of Parlophone Records and MPL Communications. Lead guitar on the song "The Light Comes from Within" is played by the McCartneys' son, musician/sculptor James McCartney. The album reached number 127 in the UK charts, while the title track made the top 75, at number 74. "The Light Comes from Within" also charted, at number 56 in the UK charts.
All songs by Linda McCartney, except where noted.
New Orleans is a 1947 musical drama featuring Billie Holiday as a singing maid and Louis Armstrong as a bandleader; supporting players Holiday and Armstrong perform together and portray a couple becoming romantically involved. During one song, Armstrong's character introduces the members of his band, a virtual Who's Who of classic jazz greats, including trombonist Kid Ory, drummer Zutty Singleton, clarinetist Barney Bigard, guitar player Bud Scott, bassist George "Red" Callender, pianist Charlie Beal, and pianist Meade Lux Lewis. Also performing in the film is cornetist Mutt Carey and bandleader Woody Herman. The music, however, takes a back seat to a rather conventional plot. The movie stars Arturo de Cordova and Dorothy Patrick, features Marjorie Lord, and was directed by Arthur Lubin.
New Orleans has its origins in an abandoned component of an unfinished RKO Pictures feature film by Orson Welles — "The Story of Jazz" segment of It's All True. A history of jazz alternatively titled "Jam Session", the section of the film was being written by Elliot Paul in 1941 under contract to Welles. The story of Louis Armstrong was to have been central to that segment of It's All True.
New Orleans is the major-label debut studio album by American singer-songwriter PJ Morton. The album was released on May 14, 2013, under Young Money, Cash Money and Republic Records. The album is primarily produced by PJ Morton and features guest appearances by Lil Wayne, Tweet, Stevie Wonder, Busta Rhymes and Adam Levine.
The album's lead single, "Only One," which features Stevie Wonder, was nominated for the Best R&B Song at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards in 2014.
Silas or Silvanus (Greek: Σίλας / Σιλουανός; fl. 1st century AD) was a leading member of the Early Christian community, who accompanied Paul the Apostle on parts of his first and second missionary journeys.
Silas is traditionally assumed to be the Silvanus mentioned in four epistles. Some translations, including the New International Version, call him Silas in the epistles. Paul, Silas and Timothy are listed as co-authors of the two letters to the Thessalonians. Second Corinthians mentions Silas as having preached with Paul and Timothy to the church in Corinth (2 Corinthians 1:19) and Peter's first epistle regards Silas as a 'faithful brother' (1 Peter 5:12).
There is some disagreement over the proper form of his name: he is consistently called "Silas" in Acts, but the Latin Silvanus, which means "of the forest," is always used by Paul and in the First Epistle of Peter; it may be that "Silvanus" is the Romanized version of the original "Silas," or that "Silas" is the Greek nickname for "Silvanus." Silas is thus often identified with Silvanus of the Seventy. Fitzmyer points out that Silas is the Greek version of the Aramaic "Seila," a version of the Hebrew "Saul," which is attested in Palmyrene inscriptions.
A Plea for Purging was a Christian metalcore band based out of Nashville, Tennessee. During their time active, they released four full-length albums on Facedown Records and two EPs. Their final release, The Life & Death of A Plea for Purging, reached #24 on the US Billboard Rock Albums chart and #11 on the Heatseekers chart. Guitarist Blake Martin played on Project 86's record, Wait for the Siren and was a touring member for Haste the Day. Drummer Aaron Eckermann was a touring member for Corpus Christi. Vocalist Andy Atkins was featured on The Crimson Armada's song "Composed of Stone", from their album Conviction.
In 2005, Blake Martin and John Wand recruited Justin Lewis, Aaron Eckermann, and Lyle Paschal to join their band, which they had originally called Silas. They later changed it to A Plea for Purging. The band recorded A self-titled EP with this line up, and soon after Justin Lewis quit the band.
The band then asked Andy Atkins (ex-With Blood Comes Beauty) to join the band. The band recorded an EP before signing to Facedown Records. Their Facedown debut was A Critique of Mind and Thought, with this line up, before guitarist Lyle Paschal quit.

Pick up your copy from your local record store or online HERE: https://LindaMcCartney.lnk.to/WidePrairie Paul McCartney on the song 'Wide Prairie': “I have always thought of this song as Linda’s fantasy. Her passion for horses and riding started as a young girl and remained with her all her life. Her tongue in cheek attitude and what we called her ‘twangy’ voice combined to make this joyful little rocker. She recorded it during sessions at EMI Studios in Paris where years before I had done the vocal for ‘Can’t Buy Me Love’. We travelled there shortly after Princess Anne’s first wedding in Westminster Abbey, taking the group van with other band members who at that time included Jimmy McCulloch and Denny Laine. As ...
This video is just for listening to one of the songs from Linda McCartney's album "Wide Prairie". There aren't any pictures or photos but the cover of the album. The album was released posthumously after Linda's death (in April 1998) on October 27, 1998. It's a compilation of all the songs Linda ever wrote and recorded. This song, Wide Prairie, was recorded by Wings on November 20, 1073 in Paris and in June 1974 in Nashville, Tennessee. Hope you'll enjoy it. I do not own the rights of the song or any other.
Track 1 of Linda's 1998 album, Wide Priarie
Recorded with Wings in France, November 1973; and in U.S.A., July 1974. Produced by Paul McCartney and officially credited to Linda McCartney, but the Paul McCartney Project site claims that Paul wrote it, and features an interview by Paul that suggest so. It's unlikely that Linda wrote alone this musically complex song (a mix of rock, jazz and bluegrass), so probably Paul wrote it. It was released without Paul's first verse and a slightly longer ending in November 1998 on the Wide Praire album, a posthumous compilation of songs sung by Linda, compiled by Paul. On YouTube it's alvailable an 8 minute version that features a long jazz coda. I personally edited the version on this video in order to create the most complete but also the most focused version possibile. I also equalized the volu...

Approved | 1h 16min | Crime, Drama, Film-Noir | March 1955 (USA) Filmed at White Heat...At the Bottom of Desire Street! A Navy veteran purchases a government surplus vessel and becomes involved in the capture of waterfront racketeers.
New Orleans is one of the most visited cities in the United States. But it also has a much darker face: that is one of the most dangerous cities in the country. Director: Camille Courcy and Patrick Chauvel
O rico Nick Duquesne (Arturo de Cordova) é o proprietário de um característico bar negro, onde as noites são regadas a muito bourbon e jazz com Billle Holiday e Louis Armstrong e sua banda até o amanhecer - e onde os brancos da sociedade sulista americana definitivamente não gostam de estar.Quando ele se apaixona pela cantora e socialite Miralle Smith (Dorothy Patrick), também uma nova admiradora da cultura negra, Nick percebe que a única maneira de ganhar o amor e admiração da jovem moça é enfrentar o preconceito da sociedade e lançar o jazz como uma música para todas as raças e palcos.
Several silent clips set to music.
