SAFE GIGS: Musicians Australia “This is our opportunity to rebuild the music industry on our terms.”
As restrictions ease, musicians are being asked to play gigs at rock-bottom rates in unsafe working conditions. Let’s get one thing straight: if a venue is opening, and serving drinks and food, they’ll be paying staff and ensuring compliance with Work Health and Safety laws. If they also want to put on gigs, the musicians that play those gigs also deserve to be safe and paid a fair fee.
The ‘SAFE GIGS’ framework launched by Musicians Australia members across the country tonight will ensure that musicians are safe at gigs, and won’t be ripped-off in the process.

A great memory by a wonderful vocal poet and folk music artist – Dory Previn (Dorothy Veronica Previn, née Langan; October 22, 1925 – February 14, 2012)
This audio clip is of a live performance from recording vocal artist Dory Previn & Band on the Old Grey Whistle Test television show, London England, 1977 with Art Phillips (owner of 101 Music Pty Ltd, www.101.audio & www.artphillips.com) on acoustic guitars, electric guitars and mandolin, Peter Jameson on acoustic guitars, slide and e-bow, and Tom Kellock on acoustic piano and synth keyboards.
Dory Previn was an American lyricist, singer-songwriter and poet. During the late 1950s and 1960s she was a lyricist on songs for many famous motion pictures and, with her then husband, André Previn, received several Academy Award nominations for their compositions. Together they wrote five songs for the movie ‘Valley of the Dolls’.
They also wrote many famous songs recorded by big name recording artists such as Frank Sinatra, Matt Monro, Rosemary Clooney, Jack Jones, Doris Day, Sammy Davis Jr., Nancy Wilson, Dionne Warwick, Bobby Darin, and many more.
Dory Previn also wrote Come Saturday Morning, music by Fred Karlin, for the film ‘The Sterile Cuckoo’. Andre Previn was a famous music composer, pianist and conductor, who later married Mia Farrow. Rowen Farrow, now famous author and journalist, is the son of Mia Farrow. Mia was also married to Frank Sinatra early on.
Previn’s lyrics and music from the period of her recording artist success are characterized by their originality, irony and honesty in dealing with her troubled personal life as well as more generally about relationships, sexuality, religion and psychology. Until her death in 2012, she continued to work as a writer of song lyrics and prose.
The Old Grey Whistle Test was a British television music show. It was commissioned by David Attenborough and aired on BBC2 from 1971 to 1988.

Nomination – Production Music Association, PMA 2018 Mark Awards
September 18th, 2018
Dear family, friends and ‘101 Music’ sub-publishers/distributors,
This came as a wonderful surprise and is an absolute honor to receive a nomination for ‘Best Production Music Library Jazz Artist’ from the PMA (Production Music Association) in the USA, 2018 MARK AWARDS.
The album release where this nomination aligns to is from my production music library record label ‘101 Music Pty Ltd’ that created ‘ITALIAN HOLIDAY’ (101M032) – composed, produced & performed by myself, Art Phillips/Arturo DiFilippo (electric and acoustic guitars).
‘ITALIAN HOLIDAY’ was released in the 101 Music Pty Ltd production music library catalog in January 2018 ‘ITALIAN HOLIDAY’ (101M032) – 101 Music Pty Ltd, production music release and is also commercially released and can be purchased at the Apple Music store ‘ITALIAN HOLIDAY’ – artist: Art Phillips/Arturo DiFilippo, commercial release (apple store)
This is a special distinction for me and I am thrilled to receive this nomination, especially as the album is a tribute to my father who was a great guitarist from Erie, Pennsylvania (USA), also named Arturo Phillips, and how I learnt from the age of 5, playing the old classic Italiano songs together with my grandpa on mandolins, my Dad and I on guitars – playing in nonno’s kitchen many a night per week all through my childhood.
On this project, I played my fathers ‘1937 Gibson L-12 guitar’ with a classic ‘40’s DeArmond’ floating pick-up, and I also played my grandpa Antonio DiFilippo’s ‘1942 Gibson A-40 mandolin’. DiFilippo is my heritage family name, hence the release name with Arturo DiFilippo as the tribute.
I thank my father for his inspiration, love and passion with music, and I also gratefully thank and acknowledge the Production Music Association (PMA) for all that you do for our industry on an international level. In particular, I acknowledge the late Andy Mark for the creation of ‘The Mark Awards’, and thank all the judges who put in an extraordinary amount of time and expertise into the awards system each year.
This album, Italian Holiday, features the most synchronized and performed works from the ‘101 Music’ catalog:
Quote: “Art, I listened to your Italian album ‘Italian Holiday’ (101M032), beautiful work – I felt as if I were in Italy. ‘Amore’ is especially gorgeous”.
Barry Manilow – vocalist & recording artist, songwriter, music producer & arranger (June 2018).
Thank you for your friendship and continued support of the ‘101 Music Pty Ltd’ ® catalog.
Regards,
