The Morrison Hotel Gallery Presents Bruce Springsteen Photographs In “The River Collection”
Bruce Springsteen © Patrick Harbron/courtesy of Morrison Hotel Gallery
“One of my images being shown in the exhibit is from ‘The River’ tour. It was photographed January 21, 1981 -- exactly 35 years to the day from the exhibit opening. In fact, I probably shot it around 8:30 PM,” said Patrick Harbron.
By Jessica Mackin
Thirty-five years ago, Bruce Springsteen released his fifth studio album, The River. It’s become one of his best-selling albums and one of his highest certified studio releases. Currently, it’s being commemorated by a lavish box set and The River Tour 2016. Morrison Hotel Gallery, in its Soho Loft located at 116 Prince Street honors
this seismic album with a time capsule exhibit and sale, “The River Collection.” This show will feature photographs by the select few privy to documenting this landmark album, including lensmen luminaries such as David Gahr, Frank Stefanko, Jim Marchese, Joel Bernstein, Lynn Goldsmith and Neal Preston. The collection will be open to the public through February 11. Preceding the official opening there was a private

reception on January 21, sponsored by Macari Vineyards - a family owned and operated winery featuring world-class wines from the North Fork. The exhibit will also open in March 2016 at the West Hollywood gallery located in the Sunset Marquis Hotel. In 1985’s biography, Springsteen by Robert Hilburn, the artist spoke of the transformative time surrounding The River album saying, “I finally got to the place where I realized life had paradoxes, a lot of them, and you’ve got to live with them.”
“The River Collection” features images handpicked by the Bruce Springsteen camp. These photographs will also appear in the booklet that is being released with The River box set, and the documentary film included in the box set package. Taken as a whole, the collection gives an unprecedented and comprehensive look into the recording, the period surrounding the release of the album, and the career transformation in the aftermath of The River.

ON THE COVER: Christian Little's Exhibitionists #13 (Breakfast in Bed).
Deadline for submissions is Thursday at noon. Email to jessica@indyeastend. com.
Christian Little “Exhibitionists”
Sara Nightingale Gallery presents Christian Little's “Exhibitionists,” opening Saturday with a reception from 5 to 7 PM. Little’s recent body of work examines a voyeur culture preoccupied with sex, drama and the lives of others. His acrylic paintings on wood panel are intended, not to offer a representation of reality, but rather, to suggest simulations of imagined actualities. The paintings are simultaneously voyeuristic and participatory, erotic and sterile, stiff and fluid, analytic and absurd. Little’s series places human sculptures on top of pedestals, referencing shunga (spring drawings), a form of Japanese erotic ukiyo-e woodblock prints from the 18th Century. While most shunga contain sexually explicit imagery, Little’s “Exhibitionists” paintings create sexual innuendo using abstraction and an elaborate combination of painting styles to depict his figures and their implied activities. Contemporary culture’s addiction to over-sharing is also implied in the format of the paintings; their square shapes mimic Instagram and profile pics. Little challenges the dimensional limitations of traditional painting through the use of trompe l’oeil and decorative painting techniques, using paint self-consciously to address
painting’s histor y. Faux finishing techniques and simulated textures act as visual anchors in these wildly mannered works, alluding to the material world as well as the virtual and imagined. The exhibition will be on view through February 20.

A 70s Boogie Winter Wonderland By Kitty Merrill Confessions of a cover band groupie: I’ve travelled to Cedar Beach in Babylon to see them, driven to The Emporium, Dublin Deck, and 89 North in Patchogue for their music, and even braved the Hamptons summer trade parade traffic (two hours from East Hampton to Southampton College, a personal worst) to catch them at Cupsogue Beach in Westhampton. They’re that good. This Friday night East Enders have a chance to “Get Down, Get Down,” to the band credited with bringing live dance music back to Long Island – That 70s Band. Helmed by sax master Steve Interrante, That 70s Band boasts 10 members. A rhythm section, horn section, percussion, and four lead singers all work together to make sure fans boogie till they just can’t boogie no more. And, if you’re thinking you’re too cool to boogie, boy, oh boy, have I got news for you. The group compiles set lists that compell even the stodgiest or shyest spectator to get on up on the floor. “There’s an art to keeping everyone dancing,” Interrante informed. “When we write our sets, we want to make sure when we transition from one song to the next, we keep the vibe going.” Beyond thinking through the transitions, the group also picks up on the specific energy of a room and goes with it, shifting gears on the fly to build momentum. Donna Summer, Earth Wind & Fire, Chic, and Evelyn Champagne King are most requested artists, but That 70s Band doesn’t disappoint on any covers. The group celebrates its tenth anniversary this year, though some members first got together 14 years ago. Back then, Interrante recalled, it was rare to see live dance music at clubs. “If you went to a club, you heard classic rock or a DJ. Venue owners have
Independent/Courtesy That 70s Band.
said we created a cover band that broke the mold and set the standard.” Beyond a genius for selecting sets that keep the audience enthralled, members of the band pride themselves on sheer musical talent. There’s no sampling, no backing tracks on a computer to make up for musical weakness. “We don’t play along with a computer. Everything is live down to the tambourine,” Interrante said. Band members’ technical skill and talents are important, but ultimately, “It’s always about the music, always about enjoying the music. Once we get on the stage, we’re in our element. We act as a team and perform as a team. We really enjoy what we’re doing and that translates to the audience.” This Friday night, friends and fans from the East End have a chance to see That 70s Band right near home at the Suffolk Theater in Riverhead. They take the stage at 8 PM. You take the dance floor at 8:01. Tickets to the Boogie Winter Wonderland are $30. Visit the theater’s website or call 631-727-4343 to get yours.

today’s birthday by Miles X. Logan
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, 1756 A child prodigy and musical genius, Mozart mastered piano and violin, composed, and per formed before European royalty by the time he was five years old. By age 17 the young man held the prestigious position as a composer in the Salzburg royal court, but he grew restless. When he took off for Vienna he was dismissed from his official position. Mozart remained in Vienna, and though he never achieved the wealth or prestige he would have in Salzburg, he composed his most memorable works while in the capital city. Mozart became smitten with Constanze Weber just as his first opera was becoming popular. The pair married, though Mozart’s father approved only reluctantly. Mozart and Constanze had six children but only two survived infancy. Mozart immersed himself studying the work of Bach, Handel, and many of the Baroque masters. (Meanwhile, a young Beethoven was similarly smitten with Mozart’s work and began emulating him – it is unclear if the two composers ever met). Mozart became chronically ill over time, and though the subject of much conjecture it was probably one of the maladies of the day that took his life on December 5, 1791 and not foul play. Though he achieved considerable popularity during his life, Mozart is much more popular today, and with good reason: as the composer Haydn said in 1785: “I tell you before God, and as an honest man, [Mozart] is the greatest composer known to me by person and repute, he has taste and what is more the greatest skill in composition.”

East End Calendar Highlights
By Kitty Merrill
ARIES (Mar. 20 - Apr. 20) Now is the time for reason, and for seeing another person’s viewpoint. It is time for a balancing of accounts, on a physical, mental, and emotional level; and in negotiations, and financial or legal matters. Make preparations to reap what you have sown.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23 - Nov. 22) You need to become more aware, receptive, intuitive, and even psychic. To do so, know you must get your ego out of the way and let forces of a higher power work through you. Learn to let chaos work for you. Have faith that Justice will triumph.
TAURUS (Apr. 20 - May 21) You must gather and maintain great strength in reserve. You need to be disciplined. The strength of your will, character and body may soon be tested. Gather a nd preserve your resources now so you may confidently defend your position later. Stay faithful to your purpose.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21) You may have to bide your time, but stay faithful to your purpose. Rules are based on the sincere desire of those who came before us to preserve what was useful in their time. But your best interests are not always best served by blind obedience.
GEMINI (May 21 - June 22) A new way of looking at things is needed. This period may seem restrictive, but you are being forced to become more introspective, to listen to your higher mind. If you feel powerless, blocked, or stuck in a rut, you must “lift yourself up.”
CAPRICORN (Dec. 21 - Jan. 20) Tap your creative potential. Have an open and sympathetic heart and your wishes will be provided for. Be as gentle to yourself and your creations as you would be to an infant. Enjoy the riches of nature and the natural world.
CANCER (June 22 - July 23) You need to be a teacher who passes on the wisdom of the past. To do so, act sure, serene, and merciful as you learn and teach proven techniques and traditions. Spiritual values and traditions will comfort and sustain you.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 - Feb. 19) You need to get in touch with why you feel restricted or stuck. The suspension of progress may occur if learning reaches a plateau. If things are seen from a new perspective, change can occur. You are not being punished unjustly.
LEO (July 23 - Aug. 23) You need to know and speak the truth and perceive it in the words and deeds of others. Be fair and just with all and you will soon be able to detect dishonesty in yourself and others. Learn the rules that govern what you are involved with.
PISCES (Feb. 19 - Mar. 20) Go quietly within yourself, to first become aware of your eternal connection to all that is, was, and will be. The strength you gain from this knowledge will then bring insight. True power comes from the use of our spiritual energies, available to us all.

1 can black beans (washed) 1 tbsp ground cumin 1 tbsp paprika 1 tbsp chili powder 1 clove of garlic 1 lime juiced 1 handful cilantro (chopped) 3/4 c olive oil 1 c cheddar cheese (shredded) salt and pepper to taste
Method
Begin by preheating your grill. Blend the garlic, cumin, chili powder, paprika, salt, and half cup of olive oil together to make a marinade. Cover the chicken in the marinade and let it sit in the fridge for 20 minutes while you dice your vegetables for the salsa. Once the mango, avocado, tomato, cilantro, have all been chopped mix them with a touch of salt, and the lime juice. Now that the grill is hot, grill each of your tortillas on one side for about 20 seconds just to crisp them up a bit. Cook your chicken. When the chicken is cooked, slice it into strips. To assemble the quesadillas sprinkle a bit of cheese on the uncooked side of each tortilla followed by some beans and chicken. Fold them in half and bake in a 400 degree oven for five minutes. Top with the salsa and enjoy a tasty treat.

Hampton Coffee Company Aquebogue
Independent/Courtesy Hampton Coffee Company
By Jessica Mackin
Hampton Coffee Company has opened its fourth espresso bar & café in Aquebogue, one of the easternmost hamlets in the Town of Riverhead, and the gateway to the North Fork. The new
location opened on Sunday, January 17, with a full day of excited crowds welcoming the community-focused company to the neighborhood. The location has been repurposed and preserved from a 1940s-era
garage/service station while at the same time updated to a green café featuring LED lighting, Energy Star equipment, permeable parking lot material, and full local single-stream recycling of waste.
Hampton Coffee Company is a 22-year-old local family-owned and community-focused business providing quality year-round jobs to local Long Island residents. They are Long Island’s largest independent roaster-retailer.
