  • Robert Johnson, Folk Revivalism, and Disremembering the American Past
    The Green Fields of the Mind: Robert Johnson, Folk Revivalism, and Disremembering the American Past Blaine Quincy Waide A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Folklore Program, Department of American Studies Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: William Ferris Robert Cantwell Timothy Marr ©2009 Blaine Quincy Waide ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract Blaine Quincy Waide: The Green Fields of the Mind: Robert Johnson, Folk Revivalism, and Disremembering the American Past (Under the direction of William Ferris) This thesis seeks to understand the phenomenon of folk revivalism as it occurred in America during several moments in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. More specifically, I examine how and why often marginalized southern vernacular musicians, especially Mississippi blues singer Robert Johnson, were celebrated during the folk revivals of the 1930s and 1960s as possessing something inherently American, and differentiate these periods of intense interest in the traditional music of the American South from the most recent example of revivalism early in the new millennium. In the process, I suggest the term “disremembering” to elucidate the ways in which the intent of some vernacular traditions, such as blues music, has often been redirected towards a different social or political purpose when communities with divergent needs in a stratified society have convened around a common interest in cultural practice. iii Table of Contents Chapter Introduction: Imagining America in an Iowa Cornfield and at a Mississippi Crossroads…………………………………………………………………………1 I.

The analysis draws an empirical distinction between choreographed and improvised movements by tracking the ways participants deal with variations in the projectability and contingencies of upcoming movements. A detailed specification of temporal patterns and relationships between rhythms shows how different rhythms are used as interactional resources. Systematic disruptions to their rhythmical

  • The Fado & the Blues
    1 The Fado (Destiny or fate) The "Blues" of Portugal and American Blues Fado and the Blues - 1 Story of the Blues - 17 Ana Moura Bio - 4 Articles - 19 Origin & Genre - 6 Magic Melody (Kern) - 44 Moura Interview II - 7 Conclusion - 93 Spirituals - 9 Music - 95 The Fado & the Blues While working on the story behind the song “April in Portugal” I found the composer of the English version was Jimmy Kennedy, the lyricist of many popular songs. He added lyrics that did not mirror the Brazilian words but did try to keep the emotion behind the original music and lyrics by Raul Ferrdo and Jose Galhardo. Upon further research I found out that the tune was what is called a “Fado” (fate) in Portugal. In Portugal the Fado is considered the national music. Its impression is a nostalgia felt when missing someone or losing someone (in Portuguese the word ‘saudade’ is used much as the word blues is used). The origin of the Fado is said to have been a mixture of African slave rhythms with the traditional music of Portuguese sailors and Arabic influences. This fact got me thinking about the similarities and differences between the Fado and the Negro Blues. Further research finds that some jazz players also became interested in the Fado. Don Byas had an interest in the Fado and actually performed with Fado singers. There are many similar things about Fado and the Blues. Both seemed to have origins in Negro Slaves. Slaves during the era of slavery that went to Brazil numbered 3,646,800.

  • OFFERS INVITED by Mark Berresford Rare Records the Chequers, Chequer Lane, Shottle, Derbyshire, DE56 2DR, England
    OFFERS INVITED by Mark Berresford Rare Records The Chequers, Chequer Lane, Shottle, Derbyshire, DE56 2DR, England. Tel: (+44) 1773 550275 Email: [email protected] Postage and packing in purpose-built new boxes extra. Winners only notified. Condition, as ever, guaranteed. Minimum bid unless stated £8/$10, however I reserve the right to refuse bids I consider unrealistic. AUCTION CLOSES MIDNIGHT 18th FEBRUARY 2018 HOW TO BID Basically, there are two ways of bidding; first is the simple Straight Bid - you offer a fixed amount for an item and if yours is the high - est bid, you win. Secondly, and easier for those more familair with internet auctions, and for those collectors unsure of what to offer, is the Maximum Bid. You offer a bid to a maximum amount, which will be increased in 10% increments over the nearest bid up to your maximum amount. For example, you bid to a maximum of $100 on an item, but the next highest bid is $20 - you will pay $22, i.e. 10% over the the next highest bid. In the event of a tie the fixed bidder, or earliest-placed bid wins. IMPORTANT! Please make clear the system of bidding you are using and currency you are bidding in (Pounds Sterling, Euros or US Dollars). If you have a maximum budget to spend, please advise with your bids. Please also double check your item numbers when bidding - I do not use titles or issue numbers on my auction spreadsheet, so if you bid on the wrong number and win it, it’s yours! NOTE: Some of the categorisation of certain instrumental-based artists has been, by necessity, arbitrary so please check all sections.
