It is an honor and a privilege to work with so many highly talented musicians. I am filled with gratitude for the road I have traveled, and look forward to many more years of helping to bring live music to the world! Cover photo J.C. Juanis Cover lettering Mike Dolgushkin © 2021 Music has always been my passion. As a young guy I remember riding the #37 bus downtown to stop at the record store to pick up the latest albums. From my hometown of Baltimore I listened to WCAO radio Top 40 hits, and watched The Buddy Deane Dance Party every day after school. My early musical heroes were Dion, Paul Anka, Neil Sedaka, Little Eva, Ray Charles, Chubby Checker, Gene Pitney, Roy Orbison, The Four Tops and, Stevie Wonder…. My parents were also music fans.

  • Pachuau 1 the Use of Music and Song As a Medium of Human
    Pachuau 1 The use of music and song as a medium of human expression has been prevalent throughout history. Music has been used to explore and to give vent to a whole range of emotions, feelings and concerns- from the joyful to the disheartening. Music is therefore, a revelatory medium of not just an individual concern, but that of society as well. Protest music, whether through lyrics, performance or context, gives us an insight into discontent, both personal and societal. Basically, a protest song is a song which is associated with a movement for social change. According to Elizabeth J.Kizer, ―to protest is to verbalize a dissatisfaction with the status quo‖, and as such, a protest song verbalizes discontent, either overtly or covertly and calls for a change or rectification. The song of dissent… may appear to represent the feelings of a sole lyricist, but if the discontent is widely felt, then the protest becomes a voice for and about many people. In some instances, the identity of the composer becomes of secondary importance, and the song is a collective cry for change. The originator, or message source, tends to be forgotten, to some extent, as the protest song evolves as a cultural message. No longer is the protest viewed as an individual message but as part of a larger, cultural or social one. (Kizer, np) As an expression of cultural and political resistance, protest music has been prevalent as far back as the Peasant‘s Revolt of 1381 in England, wherein there was a movement for the reform of feudalism and the oppression of the working classes.

  • Pop Goes to War, 2001–2004:U.S. Popular Music After 9/11
    1 POP GOES TO WAR, 2001–2004: U.S. POpuLAR MUSIC AFTER 9/11 Reebee Garofalo Mainstream popular music in the United States has always provided a window on national politics. The middle-of-the-road sensibilities of Tin Pan Alley told us as much about societal values in the early twentieth century as rock and roll’s spirit of rebellion did in the fifties and sixties. To cite but one prominent example, as the war in Vietnam escalated in the mid-sixties, popular music provided something of a national referendum on our involvement. In 1965 and 1966, while the nation was sorely divided on the issue, both the antiwar “Eve of Destruction” by Barry McGuire and the military ode “The Ballad of the Green Berets” by Barry Sadler hit number one within months of each other. As the war dragged on through the Nixon years and military victory seemed more and more remote, however, public opinion began to turn against the war, and popular music became more and more clearly identified with the antiwar movement. Popular music—and in particular, rock—has nonetheless served con- tradictory functions in American history. While popular music fueled opposition to the Vietnam War at home, alienated, homesick GIs eased the passage of time by blaring those same sounds on the battlefield (as films such as Apocalypse Now and Good Morning, Vietnam accurately document). Rock thus was not only the soundtrack of domestic opposition to the war; it was the soundtrack of the war itself. This phenomenon was not wasted on military strategists, who soon began routinely incorporat- ing music into U.S.
