"Got My Mind Set On You": Before George Harrison, Its Singer's Tragic End
by
Lee Jensen
When former Beatle George Harrison released "Got My Mind Set On You" in October 1987, it became his third number one single. But only the most avid record collectors realized that the track was not a Harrison original; written by Rudy Clark, it was rhythm and blues singer James Ray who first recorded the song in 1962 as part of an LP titled "James Ray." The album included Ray's only hit, "If You Gotta Make A Fool Of Somebody." But Ray would not live long enough to enjoy its success.

Rockabilly Revival - The Music Lives On
by
Jacqui Munn
The '50s are seen as a time of innocence - and of innocence corrupted. It was a period of intense conservatism and the rise of suburbia on the one hand and rock and roll and a new rebellious spirit among the young, on the other. Rockabilly was the sound of the decade and while it might have been born out from the jazz, blues and blue grass of the US south, it's lived on through five decades in one form or another.
