Marni Nixon (Margaret Nixon McEathron)
(February 22, 1930 – July 24, 2016)

NEW YORK (AP) — Hollywood voice double Marni Nixon, whose singing
was heard in place of the leading actresses in such classic movie musicals
as "West Side Story,” ”The King and I" and "My Fair Lady," has died.

Michael Kirsten, senior vice president of Nixon’s talent agency, Harden-
Curtis Associates, said she died Sunday of cancer in New York. He said 
"She passed away peacefully with her family at her side. 

Nixon, who was initially unaccredited for her work, early on resented the
dubbing work but later came to terms with it. "I realized now that this was
something that would outlive me. Something that would last," she wrote
in her 2006 memoir, "I Could Have Sung All Night."

After signing a new recording contract with RCA Victor  Artie Shaw chose
"Begin the Beguine" to be the first of six tunes he would record with his new
14 piece band at this, his first recording session with RCA. The session was
held at RCA’s "Studio 2" on East 24th Street in New York.

Artie Shaw (Arthur Jacob Arshawsky)
(May 23, 1910 – December 30, 2004)

Shaw was also an actor and a author who wrote both fiction and non-
fiction. He remained a force in popular music and jazz before retiring
from music completely in 1954.

The song "Cold as Ice" by British-American rock band Foreigner became
one of the best known songs of the band in the U.S., peaking at number
6 in the Billboard Hot 100. It was initially the B-side of some versions of the
"Feels Like the First Time" 45 rpm single.

The "Surfer Girl" single backed with "Little Deuce Coupe"  entered the
Billboard chart on August 3 and it would then hit the Top 40 on August
17 at the number 28 position. After the single had been on the charts
for six weeks it peaked at number 7 on September 14, 1963. It placed
at number 5, for three weeks in Cash Box. The single also peaked on
the Billboard R & B chart at number 18 in September 1963.
