Midnight Sun
The midnight sun is a natural phenomenon that occurs in the summer months in places north of the Arctic Circle or south of the Antarctic Circle, when the Sun remains visible at the local midnight. When the midnight sun is seen in the Arctic, the Sun appears to move from left to right, but in Antarctica the equivalent apparent motion is from right to left. This occurs at latitudes from 65°44' to 90° north or south, and does not stop exactly at the Arctic Circle or the Antarctic Circle, due to refraction. The opposite phenomenon, polar night, occurs in winter, when the Sun stays below the horizon throughout the day. Details Around the summer solstice (approximately 21 June in the Northern Hemisphere and 21 December in the Southern Hemisphere), in certain areas the Sun does not set below the horizon within a 24-hour period. Geography Because there are no permanent human settlements south of the Antarctic Circle, apart from research stations, the countries and territ ...

Overall, the quintet were exponents of good-times music with strong roots in blues and Texas-regional traditions. Group's origins Doug Sahm, a veteran of the professional music scene who first sang on radio at the age of five, formed the Quintet (first called simply 'Sir Douglas') in 1964 with longtime friend Augie Meyers and the other original members, Jack Barber, Frank Morin, and Johnny Perez.

''Midnight Sun'' is an album by jazz saxophonist Lou Donaldson, recorded for the Blue Note label in 1960, but not released until 1980 and performed by Donaldson with pianist Horace Parlan, bassist George Tucker, drummer Al Harewood and congalero Ray Barretto. Reception The album was awarded 3 stars in an Allmusic review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine who states "''Midnight Sun'' is as strong as any of the hard bop records Donaldson released in the early '60s. Part of the reason the quality is so high is the fact his supporting quartet is so strong... Any dedicated Donaldson fan should search for this record; even if it doesn't reach the heights of '' Blues Walk'' and '' Here 'Tis'', it still has plenty of fine music.Erlewine, S.
