Show C-4 The Park Record Sat/Sun/Mon/Tues, August 18-21, 2018 Continued from C-3 Ambrosia comes to Park City Discover Park City at: www.ParkCityHomesAndLand.com “We actually do five or six shows a year called Ambrosia and Friends when we play with these guys,” Puerta said. “The thing that has helped reinvigorate the band is (SiriusXM) radio. There is the Yacht Rock channel that plays the heck out of our catalog and of our friends.” Ambrosia also maintains close ties to The Doobie Brothers and its former lead singer Michael McDonald, who were signed with Warner Bros. Records during the late 1970s. “When they were at the height of their career, we opened for them in the big arenas, and became like brothers,” Puerta said. “To this day, we still perform with Michael, and we recently did a cruise where we were Michael’s band. That was a thrill for us.” Other people’s music aside, Puerta said that Ambrosia fans continue to tell him how much the band’s music means to them. “It’s sometimes hard to realize how much these songs have Kathy Vallée, CLHMS, CRS, GRI Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage PARK CITY’s FRIENDLIEST REALTOR® REALTOR® Since 2001 1153 Center Dr. G #200 Park City, Utah 84098 Mobile: +1 435 565 0797 www.parkcityhomesandland.com kathy@kathyvallee.com ©2018 Coldwell Banker Real Estate LLC.

Chris plugged in a more aggressive sound, while Jaco redefined jazz bass playing.” Looking back on his career, Puerta said he is thankful for the opportunities music has given him. “What other job is there when, at the end of the day, you get people to stand up and cheer,” he said. “I’ve never had a regular job. I always made my money by playing music, whether it was at Fort MacArthur at San Pedro at the noncommissioned officers club or a lesbian bar in North Hollywood while we were making our first album. I mean, there are not a lot of people who say they are going to ‘play’ when they go to work.” Ambrosia will play at 8 p.m. from Thursday through Saturday, Aug. 23-25, at the Egyptian Theatre, 328 Main St. Thursday tickets range from $29 to $45. Friday and Saturday tickets range from $35 to $55.

If the Arts-Kids weekly session succeeds, Hallisey would like to organize another weekly program at Aspen Village, the Park City apartment complex where many of the participating families live.

Puerta pointed to some of Ambrosia’s “romantic hits.” “When we play the songs, we can see people processing the experiences they had with these songs,” he said with a laugh. “They’re remembering when they were in the backseats of cars and things like that. We joke The idea back then was to put together, in our own little way, the best and innovative players we could...” Joe Puerta, Ambrosia bassist |
