2010 ELECTION NATIONAL ANTHEM - FREE!

	ALBUQUERQUE, NM - By popular demand, New Mexico's only Entertainment Industry 
General Licenser, VANDOR MOTION PICTURES, PHONORECORDS AND MUSIC PUBLISHING GROUP, 
has released, for the third time, Bobby Farrell and the Beer Joint Baritones' 
recording, "(This) GETTING UP TO NOTHING (is Getting Through to Me)" on Vandor 
International Records.
	Free downloads and CDs are available upon request to all broadcasters including 
Educational Stations and internet radio.  The CD Single is Public Performance 
Royalty-Free world wide, a boon to All News and Talk Radio, and on sale via all 
major licensers, record stores and outlets.
	GETTING UP TO NOTHING is being called the "2010 Election National Anthem," "Tea 
Party Lullaby" and "Battle Hymn of the Independents" due to its biting lyrics 
and cross-party satirical denunciations.  Audio/Cartoon versions are posted on 
MySpace - http://www (dot) myspace.com/beerjointbaritones - and YouTube - http://www 
(dot) youtube.com/watch?v=M11ZHqS5iaw
	GETTING UP TO NOTHING reached #1 in Greater Southern's European and US Independent 
Charts holding the position for three consecutive months; #1 in the Eu-Am-Asian 
Chart for four months; charted in the Atlantic Satellite Top-2,500 for over two 
years; reached #8 on Indie World Top-40 from April until September 2008, and 
airing through the November Elections.  A January 2010 chart from Russia shows 
the song at #9.  The song returns every election cycle.
	Originally recorded at STUDIO IN THE VALLEY, Albuquerque, in 1987, produced 
and engineered by Andrew T. Cravenna, GETTING UP TO NOTHING is a political satire 
with prophetic lyrics that apply more today than they did over twenty years ago. 
  The song is a favorite crowd-rouser at political and town hall public gatherings 
and still receives sporadic broadcast in non-election years.  The cornball comedy 
arrangement and sound are by deliberate design.
	Bobby Farrell made his first public appearance, at six years old, on December 
5th, 1942, at WMMN, Fairmont, WV, during a broadcast of the Sagebrush Roundup. 
 Financed and managed by Howard "BUDDY" Mack, he was taught to play guitar by 
Legendary Black Folk Singer, Hudie "LEADBELLY" Ledbetter.
	His first recording, "HARBOR LIGHTS" (Cozy, Philadelphia, PA), February 6th, 
1943, established a sound between Popular and Country that carried such stars 
as Patti Page, Gale Storm, Eddy Arnold, Jo Stafford, Tennessee Ernie Ford, Frankie 
Laine and others of the era to musical history.  His recordings featured hard 
driving on-the-beat drums, rich bass, sweet guitars, lavish strings, close harmony 
backup vocals and light woodwinds with very little brass.  He founded Bobby Farrell, 
International at Dayton, OH, in 1959, now Vandor Music Group.
