Spotlight Productions' Rock 'n Remember LIVE! concert series this June will showcase nine recording artists whose performances during each of their careers have sold out to audiences across the U.S. and beyond. The concert headliner, Jay and the Americans, charted a staggering 18 hits during their career, including five 'Top 10' records. The group has experienced a resurgence in popularity over the last several years when bringing three of the original members together to perform for fans across the U.S. The group's career began in 1962 with the hit record "She Cried." "Only in America" followed in 1963 and the hits just kept on coming. Jay and the Americans was one of the few American bands to successfully achieve musical status on various top recording charts following the arrival of The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. Their career extended all the way into the 1970s with hits like, "Cara Mia," "Some Enchanted Evening," "Let's Lock the Door," "Walkin' in the Rain," "This Magic Moment," and "Come a Little Bit Closer."

Both shows on June 3rd will also showcase these legendary performers including, Charlie Thomas' Drifters, (singing the group's hit recordings, such as "Under the Boardwalk," "Up on the Roof," "On Broadway," "Save the Last Dance for Me," and dozens more); Jay Siegel's Tokens ("The Lion Sleeps Tonight," "Tonight I "Fell in Love"); Emil Stucchio & The Classics ("Till Then"); and Chris Ruggiero (back by popular demand after turning in a roof-raising performance at last year's show). Spotlight Productions has also organized a one-night-only reunion of top female recording artists from the era─ The Marvelettes ("Please Mr. Postman"), Kathy Young ("A Thousand Stars"), and The Crystals ("Da Doo Ron Ron"). Adding some local flavor to the show will be Pittsburgh's own legends of group harmony, The Skyliners ("Since I Don't Have You," "This I Swear," "Pennies From Heaven").

Someone may not be able to do their part and you may need to step in. That is the joy and horror of live productions. This happened during my last jazz performance, one of our altos couldn’t make it to the concert and I had to learn their part. Here's my guide to making sight reading a little less scary.
