Originally from Brooklyn, New York, Elliott grew up in the Jewish tradition of his family. Desiring to become a cowboy, inspired by the rodeos he attended at Madison Square Garden during his youth, he was pushed by his parents to become a doctor like his father. He refused and left home at the age of 15 to join a famous rodeo school at that time, the J.E. Rodeo on the banks of the Mississippi River. He traveled to New England, pursued by his parents, and it was during a three-month tour that he first met a cowboy showman, who sang, played guitar and banjo. Forced to return home, Elliott taught himself to play guitar, and performed on the road to support himself. He was taught by Woody Guthrie, with whom he lived as a student and observer. He soon met Derroll Adams, with whom he toured Europe, especially England, where he made a great impression. By 1960, he had already recorded three albums (on the Topic label). Living from day to day in London pubs and clubs, unwittingly building a reputation in West End cabarets, he perfected his technique (everything Elliott had learned was later passed on to his adopted son Arlo Guthrie) and made a big impression on Bob Dylan, then a college student. Upon his arrival in New York, Bob Dylan was sometimes referred to as "Jack Elliott's son," because Elliott used to play Bob's songs by announcing "Here's a song from my son, Bob Dylan. Elliott continued as a performer, troubadour, covering and bringing old songs to new audiences. Elliott influenced Phil Ochs, and participated in his albums as a session musician, singing or playing guitar. In the mid-1970s, Elliott participated in the Rolling Thunder R***e (a Bob Dylan tour) and played the song Longheno de Castro in the Dylan film Renaldo and Clara, in which he also participated as an actor. Elliott has performed in every genre, from country to blues, bluegrass and folk. His 1995 album, South Coast, earned him his first Grammy award, and in 1998 he received the National Medal of Arts.

HOW LONG

The band were formed in December 1972 in Sheffield as "Ace Flash and the Dynamos", but the name was soon abbreviated to "Ace". The members were assembled from various professional bands. Carrack and Terry Comer had previously played with Warm Dust, and Alan "Bam" King with Mighty Baby, whose antecedents were the 1960s band The Action. Ace were popular on the pub rock circuit. Their music was a fusion of pop and funk.

Before the recording of their debut album, Five-A-Side, the former drummer of Bees Make Honey, Fran Byrne, replaced Steve Witherington. The single "How Long" was taken from this record, and was a significant chart success, achieving a top 20 place in the UK Singles Chart, and reaching number three in the US Billboard Hot 100 chart in the spring of 1975. The Five-A-Side album did well on its own, too, peaking at number 11 on the Billboard 200. Carrack, the band's keyboardist and chief songwriter, sang lead on "How Long", but was not the band's only vocalist. Follow-up singles were sung by other band members.

Ace eventually moved to the United States, and replaced Phil Harris with Jon Woodhead in June 1976, releasing their third and final album No Strings in January 1977. Unlike earlier Ace LPs, this album featured an emphasis on Carrack's vocals, and the two singles issued from the album both featured Carrack as lead singer. The singles, however, didn't chart and the group disbanded in July 1977, when Carrack, Comer and Byrne all joined Frankie Miller's backing band.

In addition to his solo career, Carrack has since played in Eric Clapton's band, Roger Waters' The Bleeding Heart Band, Roxy Music for the Manifesto album and tour, Squeeze in the early 1980s, and Mike + The Mechanics, for which he is best known. His solo re-recording of "How Long" became a UK top 40 hit again in 1996.

Mild High Club is an American psychedelic pop group, led by the musician Alexander Brettin.

Brettin grew up in the Midwest, playing flute in his school band. He majored in jazz studies at Columbia College in Chicago, and started Mild High Club in 2013. Brettin worked on Mild High Club's first album, Timeline, for almost three years until its release in 2015.

His sophomore LP, Skiptracing, was released in 2016. Pitchfork reviewed the album, stating Skiptracing is an improvement from Timeline, where "a more confident artist emerges with a fuller vision and voice."

"Homage", from the album Skiptracing, was certified Gold by RIAA in 2022.

Willie Nelson knows the success, with Waylon Jennings, at the beginning of the Seventies thanks to a new country genre not answering any more the criteria of the " Nashville sound ". Willie Nelson asserts his choice by releasing in 1976 an album called Wanted! The Outlaws (with Jessi Colter and Tompall Glaser), the first country music album to go platinum.

Willie Hugh Nelson is the son of Ira D. Nelson, a pool hall owner, and Myrtle Nelson. He learned music as a child from his grandfather, who gave him a guitar, and began playing in polka bands. He joined the US Air Force in 1950. Nelson entered Baylor University in Waco, but soon dropped out of school. He became a musician and disc jockey.

Willie Nelson settled in Nashville in 1960. He signed a publishing contract and composed for many artists, including Patsy Cline, Faron Young and Roy Orbison, but was less successful as a performer. He returned to Texas in 1970 and continued to record. Nelson became involved in the outlaw country movement and achieved mainstream success with the 1975 album Red Headed Stranger. It peaked at #28 on the Billboard 200 (then called Top LPs & Tape) and became #1 on the country charts. The album was certified gold. The following year, several of the singer's songs appeared on the compilation Wanted! The Outlaws, the first country record to go platinum. The album Stardust, produced by Booker T. Jones and released in 1979, sold four million copies.

Nelson made a guest appearance on T***s and the Maytals' True Love album, which won the 2004 Grammy for Best Reggae Album. In 2005, Nelson released a reggae album titled Countryman which featured T***s Hibbert on the song I'm a Worried Man. T***s Hibbert is also featured in the official video for the song, filmed in Jamaica, and in 2007, in the official release of the concert video for Willie Nelson and Friends - Outlaws & Angels. Nelson appeared in the 2011 BBC documentary Reggae Got Soul: The Story of T***s and the Maytals.
