Tickets for this event are now on sale at the main desk of the Erb Memorial Union. Admission will be $3.00 for University students and $4.00 for the gen eral public. Willis Alan Ramsey says his music was influenced by Woodie Guthrie, Bob Dylan, Al Jolson, James Taylor, and some old prison songs and field "hol lers’'. He went to college twice, once for one month, and again for two and a half months. Having completed his formal education, he started his professional genesis on the so-called National Coffee House cir cuit, composing his songs and developing a perfectionist s accent in his performances as he traveled. In April, 1970, Ramsey auditioned for Peter Asher, James Taylor s manager/producer, but was turned down. He continued to write and perform until several months later when he asked Leon Russell if he could sing for Shelter Records. An audition took place on the spot and atterwards he signed with the Shelter label. His debut Shelter album, Willis Alan Ramsey, was taped in five different recording studios from coast to coast and took nine months to complete Definitely a perfectionist, Ramsey s music has been recorded by other well known bands. His song, Muskrat Candlelight, was made a hit single by The Captain & Tenille and America. The Bellamy Brothers are also having similar success with another Ramsey song, Satin Sheets. Ramsey’s comfortable sound changes from honky-tonk and folk to foot-stompin' country and southern blues. He has extracted from life and envi ronment a beautiful southern folk sound all his own His perfectionism also shows in his selection of places to play while on tour The Beall Concert Hall is close to acoustically perfect and is the finest facility in Eugene for any musical performance However, due to the Hall's limited seating capac ity, there are only 500 tickets available for his con cert Local performers Emily and Antonia, with their fresh and original vocal stylings, will provide a fitting opening act for the evening Auditions Cor an English opera Auditions for principal and choral roles for the Eugene Opera! production of Bizet’s Carmen are scheduled for Oc tober 23 and 30.
