Former coffee-house singer plays at Beall
The EMU Cultural Forum will present for his first
performance in Eugene, Shelter recording artist Wil
lis Alan Ramsey this Saturday at 8 p.m. The concert
will be held in Beall Concert Hall.
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

Local performers Emily and Antonia, with their
fresh and original vocal stylings, will provide a fitting
