Show TTBnfis Week Weekend concert moved Those planning on attending the Southern Pacific concert at ParkWest June 9 will have to drive up the road a ways, but it's no big loss- the concert has been moved to Deer Valley. United Concerts, promoters of the event, say they only expect 2,000 people to attend the concert, which will feature Southern Pacific along with fellow country coun-try musicians Shenandoah, SKB, and Bailie and The Boys. The change comes as a result of concern by Summit County authorities over scheduling two concerts con-certs in a row at ParkWest, since Heart will play June 9. Southern Pacific is touring to promote their new album, Zuma. The album is a pleasingly melodic effort which crosses over country lines to pursue some poprock routes. Tickets for the show are $14.25 in advance, or $16.25 day of show. They are available in advance at ParkWest. "i Heart plays ParkWest Few people will recognize the names Anne and Nancy Wilson, but most people peo-ple know the sisters as Heart, and they will be at ParkWest July 9, at 7:30. During the seventies, Heart gained widespread popularity with classic tunes like "Barracuda," "Magic Man," and "Dog and Butterfly." The pair combined their clean voices with intricate guitar work to create some serious rockers with a melodic touch. Heart has remained popular into the eighties, capitalizing on their looks to gain them a name in the video music industry. Tickets for the concert are $16.25 in advance, or $17.25 day of show. They are available locally at the ParkWest business office. : s Bluegrass on the plaza The Oquirrh Ridge Drifters, one of the West's premiere bluegrass bands, will be out on Main Street, in one of the pocket plazas, June 9 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. - The Drifters are no strangers to Park City, having played past Art Festivals, the Deer Valley Bluegrass Festivals, and this year's Barn Dance at the Racquet Club.

Saturday night at the Deer Valley kickoff performance of the tJtah Symphony summer series, Murphey not only entertained the largest Deer Valley symphonycrowd sym-phonycrowd ever (more than 5,000) he even had conductor Christopher Wilkins rockin' and reelin' while conductin'. Under rose-colored skies The Southwestern Experience, as it was billed, featured Murphey and his Rio Grande Band, former Nitty Gritty Dirt Band member John McKuen sitting in and "the largest bluegrass band ever assembled" the Utah Symphony. Setting the mood the Symphony began the evening with a Hayman arrangement ' of Pops Hoedown. Champagne corks settled and gourmet picnics were consummed as couples snuggled up to one another in the romantic outdoor setting. set-ting. Then Wilkins introduced the award-winning country artist by telling the crowd he was delighted to have Murphey back because "his music speaks of the heart." Murphey Mur-phey opened his show with his acoustic guitar and the lyrical Crystal which he dedicated to his seven year old son in the audience. He explained he had written the song on a camping trip for another son, now 19 and performing with him, when that boy was seven. Country western music, Murphey said comes from the tradition of storytelling and he proved himself a master at blending musical stories that evening. From such well-known Murphey songs as Medicine Man to new releases like Pilgrams on the Way he displayed his eucumenical sense that we all here to help one another. And his love songs were spun out of communication breakdowns from Disenchanted to What's Forever For. But it was the love of the land where Murphey's tales were the strongest. In an introduction to the title cut from his newest album, Murphey talked of this being the 20th anniversary of the wild and scenic rivers act. He pointed out ever. Wilkins runs rivers when he's not conducting and he then played Rivers of Time. ' For banjo strumming Murphey relied on McKuen to pick out the popular Carolina in the Pines and the symphony provided the hot sax player for Drifters-style goodbye-summer-number I'm going to miss you, girl. Murphey read a cowboy poem from a former Utahn about an old horse that was a friend and then the symphony took off with a new age sounding piano introduction to Murphey's Mur-phey's classic Wildire. The first standing ovation of the evening came for Cherofeee Fiddle where the tempo kept picking up reminicent of Orange Blossom Special. Wilkin's arms were waving the musicians on who were clearly engaged in producing the fullest country sound around. McKuen picked and Murphy strummed and the hand-clapping crowd kept time. Murphey introduced his tribute to the creatures of the wild by thanking his good friends Norman and Claire Weiss, of Dolly's bookstore, for all the years they brought him up to Utah to enjoy the wilderness. (Norman (Nor-man Weiss former super agent for stars from Judy Garland to the Beatles had also served as Murphey's Mur-phey's agent early in his career.) Children oth Wild World received . another standing ovation as did Murphey's imaginary story of men at the Alamo, Tonight We Ride. The final encore piece featured Murphey's 19 year old son, Ryan and it had the two men asking each other advice about women. Entitled Talkin' to the Wrong Man each decided they "still ain't got them women figured out." As was the case last year the popular Michael Martin Murphey introduced in-troduced a crowd to the Symphony who might otherwise not have attended. at-tended. Hopefully now that they've been heard the magic of the Utah Symphony under the stars they'll return for other shows.
