2:38
R&B singer Kim Weston sings "Lift Ev'ry Voice and Sing" in front of a 100,000 at Wattstax--a festival at the Los Angeles Coliseum on August 20, 1972 organized by the Memphis Stax label to commemorate the 7th anniversary of the Watts riots and black power, pride, culture, tradition and heritage struggle. The party and peacefulness was seen by some as "African Americans answer to Woodstock". Be it charity or benefit, in order to encourage as many members of the black Americans community in LA to attend the event at Memorial Coliseum, tickets were sold at $1.00 each. Customs included advertisements and commercials in play for the event. There have been several recordings from this festival and a documentary film. It was a celebration to upstage all celebrations. Reverend Jesse Jackson gave the invocation, which included his "I Am - Somebody" poem, which was recited in a call and response with the assembled stadium crowd. There was a film directed by Mel Stuart which was nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Documentary in 1974. The songs in the film, in order of appearance: "What You See Is What You Get", performed by The Dramatics "Oh La De Da", performed by the Staple Singers "We the People", performed by the Staple Singers "Respect Yourself", performed by the Staple Singers "Star-Spangled Banner", performed by Kim Weston "Lift Ev'ry Voice and Sing", performed by Kim Weston "Someone Greater Than I", performed by Jimmy Jones "Lying on the Truth", performed by the Rance Allen Group "Peace Be Still", performed by The Emotions "Old-Time Religion", performed by William Bell, Louise McCord, Debra Manning, Eric Mercury, Freddy Robinson, Lee Sain, Ernie Hines, Little Sonny, the Newcomers, Eddie Floyd, the Temprees, Frederick Knight "Son of Shaft/Feel It", performed by The Bar-Kays "I'll Play The Blues For You", performed by Albert King "Jody's Got Your Girl and Gone", performed by Johnnie Taylor "Walking the Backstreet and Crying", performed by Little Milton "I May Not Be What You Want", performed by Mel and Tim "Picking Up the Pieces", sung by Carla Thomas "The Breakdown", sung by Rufus Thomas "If Lovin' You Is Wrong, I Don't Want to be Right", sung by Luther Ingram "Theme from Shaft", sung by Isaac Hayes "Soulsville", sung by Isaac Hayes More on the song: Lift Ev'ry Voice And Sing is often called "The Negro National Anthem" (or Black National Anthem)—was written as a poem by James Weldon Johnson (1871-1938) and then set to music by his brother John Rosamond Johnson (1873-1954) in 1900. It was first performed in public in the Johnsons' hometown of Jacksonville, Florida as part of a celebration of Lincoln's Birthday on February 12, 1900 by a choir of 500 schoolchildren at the segregated Stanton School, where James Weldon Johnson was principal. Singing this song quickly became a way for African Americans to demonstrate their patriotism and hope for the future. In calling for earth and heaven to "ring with the harmonies of Liberty," they could speak out subtly against racism and Jim Crow laws — and especially the huge number of lynchings accompanying the rise of the Ku Klux Klan at the turn of the century. In 1919, the NAACP adopted the song as "The Negro National Anthem." By the 1920s, copies of "Lift Every Voice and Sing" could be found in black churches across the country, often pasted into the hymnals. During and after the American Civil Rights Movement, the song experienced a rebirth, and by the 1970's was often sung immediately after The Star Spangled Banner at public events and performances across the United States where the event had a significant African-American population. In 1990, singer Melba Moore released a modern rendition of the song, which she recorded along with others including R&B artists Anita Baker, Stephanie Mills, Dionne Warwick, Bobby Brown, Stevie Wonder, Jeffrey Osborne, and Howard Hewett; and gospel artists BeBe and CeCe Winans, Take 6 and The Clark Sisters. Partly because of the success of this recording, Lift Ev'ry Voice and Sing was entered into the Congressional Record as the official African American National Hymn. More on singer Kim Weston: Kim Weston born December 20, 1939 in Detroit Michigan is a Motown Records alumna. She made an album for the label This Is America which included her popular version of the Black National Anthem "Lift Every Voice and Sing" was released as a single and featured in the movie Wattstax.

kim weston - helpless

4:38
"HELPLESS" - Released 1966. KIM WESTON, born Agatha Natalie Weston, December 20th 1939 in Detroit, Michigan is an African American soul singer, and Motown Records alumna. She was signed to the record label in 1963, scoring a minor hit with "Love Me All the Way" (R&B #24, Pop #88). Her biggest solo hits with Motown were "Take Me in Your Arms (Rock Me a Little While)" (R&B #4, Pop #50, 1965; later covered by The Isley Brothers, Blood, Sweat & Tears and The Doobie Brothers) and "Helpless" (R&B #13, Pop #56, 1966; previously recorded by The Four Tops on their Second Album LP). Her biggest claim to fame was singing the classic hit "It Takes Two" with Marvin Gaye in 1966 and her later recording of the Black National Anthem, "Lift Every Voice and Sing." It was the success of "It Takes Two" with Marvin Gaye that caused Motown to seek Tammi Terrell to replace her as his singing partner, which spawned even more success for the label. Kim left Motown in 1967 and later sued the label over disputes about royalties. She and her then-husband William "Mickey" Stevenson (former A&R head at Motown) both went to MGM Records. Weston cut a couple of singles for MGM, "I Got What You Need," and "Nobody," which went largely unnoticed due to lack of airplay and promotion. Kim made an album for the label, This Is America, which included her popular version of the Black National Anthem, "Lift Every Voice and Sing," was released as a single and featured in the movie Wattstax. All the money from the single was donated to the United Negro College Fund. Kim recorded several more albums for various labels, Stax/Volt among them, and also made an album of duets with Johnny Nash. None of these recordings charted, and Kim reportedly relocated to Israel, where she worked with young singers. Along with many of her fellow Motown alumni/alumnae, she signed with Ian Levine's Motorcity Records in the 1980s, releasing the single Signal Your Intention which peaked at #1 in the UK Hi-NRG charts. It was followed by the album Investigate (1990) which included some re-recordings of her Motown hits as well as new material. A second album for the label Talking Loud (1992) was never released although all the songs were included on the compilation The Best Of Kim Weston (1996). Today Kim is a disc jockey on a local Detroit, Michigan radio station, where she sponsors the summer events at Hart Plaza. She also tours sporadically, often alongside former Motown colleagues Mary Wilson, Martha Reeves and Brenda Holloway. She is also featured on the 2006 four CD release of the Motortown Revue series.

http://www.thewestonmercury.co.uk/cs/forums/1795/ShowForum.aspx In memory of Weston Grand Pier Weston Pier was built in 1904 (5 years before the Titanic) Hi they are 'midi tunes' of popular songs - the first one is the song "Dream" (all you have to do is dream)to represent the ability of us to remember the pier as it was, I kind of remember my aunts/mum talking about holiday's in Weston in the 50's/60's for example - and simon and garfunkel's "sound of silence" - which is the empty kind of feeling you get when something has changed in your everyday life that you have no control over.
