Magical Mystery 4

About

Jim Fraser grew up playing the snare drum in a marching band. From there he moved on to play with a local Boston band called Dry Ice. Dry Ice recorded and album that never got released and opened for some big name recording artist. The singer of Dry Ice went on to fame and fortune as the lead singer of the 70's metal band, Angel. .Jim retired from music and took up golf. After a few years he started working at a golf course and became a PGA professional. He worked in golf for thirty five years all the time keeping his hand in music, mostly playing for fun. In August of 2008, Jim had a accident which will probably prevent him from playing golf or working in the golf business full time again. he turned back to his first love, music. In the thirty five years that Jim was away from music, he taught himself how to play guitar and sing. Today, he is plays rhythm guitar and sings John Lennon's parts in the Magical Mystery 4. Jim also plays the drums in the classic country band, The Hankaholics. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ JJ Johnson has been a musician all his life. He has played in many, many bands and is an instructor at Rick's Music World in Raynham, MA. he teaches guitar, bass and voice. JJ plays bass and sings the Paul parts in the band. He also is called on to play harmonica occasionally. JJ is the musical director and helps the other members work out the intricate harmonies of the Beatles. JJ also plays in a Santana Tribute band, a Led Zepplin tribute band and in his spare time, works on his original music. ........................................................................................................................... At twenty eight years old, Alan Langely is the baby of the group. But, because he loves the Beatles and can play the guitar like George Harrison, he has no problem fitting in well with a bunch of fifty somethings. Alan is mature beyond his years as he owns his own excavation company, Langely Construction and is constantly on the go. Alan's backup harmonies are very important to the bands sound and his occasional lead vocal evokes memories of George............. *************************************************************************
Rich Moon, alias Blingo. Is as good a Beatles drummer as there is today. He works hard to get every detail of Ringo's drumming down starting certain fills with his left hand as Ringo did. Like Ringo, Blingo is "very fussy about his drums". He owns and plays a 1965 Slingerland kit that looks like the came off the showroom floor this morning. He has spent hours restoring that set and is very proud of it. Richie played in the Boston area band, Sass in the 1980s and also plays part time with the Flashbacks.
