As a guitarist, A & R man, engineer, producer, songwriting partner of Otis Redding, Eddie Floyd and a dozen others and founding member of both Booker T. and the MG’s and The Mar-Keys, Cropper was literally involved in virtually every record issued by Stax from the fall of 1961 through year end 1970.Such credits assure Cropper of an honored place in the soul music hall of fame. As co-writer of (Sittin’ On) The Dock Of The Bay, Knock On Wood and In The Midnight Hour, Cropper is in line for immortality. Born on October 21, 1941 on a farm near Dora, Missouri, Steve Cropper moved with his family to Memphis at the age of nine. In Missouri he had been exposed to a wealth of country music and little else. In his adopted home, his thirsty ears amply drank of the fountain of Gospel, R & B and nascent Rock and Roll that thundered over the airwaves of both black and white Memphis radio. Bit by the music bug, Cropper acquired his first mail order guitar at the age of 14. Personal guitar heroes included Tal Farlow, Chuck Berry, Jimmy Reed, Chet Atkins, Lowman Pauling of the Five Royales and Billy Butler of the Bill Doggett band.

  • For Hodges, Music's 'All About Love' : Go Memphis
    For Hodges, music's 'all about love' By Bob Mehr Thursday, July 21, 2011 Charles Hodges has seen the light twice in his life. The first time was as a 13-year-old boy, performing at his eighth-grade graduation. "The teacher asked me if I would play 'What I'd Say' by Ray Charles. I did and got such huge cheers, a standing ovation. All I could see was the (stage) lights, but I could hear the applause and the whistles," says Hodges. "Right then I said, 'This is what I want to do. I want to be a musician.'" Some 40 years later, Charles Hodges saw the light again; this time it was God sending out a signal to change his ways. Hodges would do just that, giving up his secular music career and becoming an ordained minister. In between those two life-altering events, Hodges was responsible for some of the most vital and familiar sounds in all of American music. As the keyboardist for Memphis' Hi Records house band, his signature organ work colored the great hits of O.V. Wright, Al Green, Ann Peebles and Syl Johnson. This past week Hodges released his second solo CD, God He's Able, a collection of soulful spiritual and worship songs. For the 64-year-old Hodges, the record is just another marker in a long musical journey and personal journey. The sixth of 12 children, Hodges was raised in what were then the farm lands of post- World War II Germantown. "It was just a two-lane highway out there," recalls Hodges.

  • U.S. Platinum Record Winner Launches Amsterdam Clinic to Help Dutch Artists
    Click here to read the article online U.S. Platinum Record Winner Launches Amsterdam Clinic to Help Dutch Artists ©Nugen Music Perry Michael Allen (right) working with a music production student. Nugen Music Supplied to NL Times This promotional feature was sponsored by Nugen Music. Wherever Perry Michael Allen goes, music always follows. His six-decade career in the music industry is filled with experiences from being connected to the best and brightest soul and R&B musicians ever to grace the charts, and the brilliant backing musicians that helped them become world famous. Allen wants to use that background to help the new musicians of the Netherlands grow and evolve. This week Allen launched Nugen Music in Amsterdam, a production company he has been developing for 15 years with the purpose of helping talented youth by teaching them the ins and outs of recording so they can put out material that is more likely to find commercial success. "I want to do a service called 'The Clinic' which is training for musicians and vocalists and music students, and anybody that realizes they need assistance or some counseling about their productions or recording technique," he says. "I'm teaching kids how to play; how to be able to walk into a session and just play." Aspiring musicians and producers may book an appointment with Allen via the Nugen Music website. He walks students through life as a developing talent, in some cases teaching them how they can initially launch their careers as recording musicians and support players. After all, if there is anyone who knows what the life of a session musician is like, and what it takes to be successful as one, it is Allen.

  • A RESOLUTION to Honor the Memory of Legendary Guitarist Reggie Young
    SENATE JOINT RESOLUTION NO.101 By Johnson A RESOLUTION to honor the memory of legendary guitarist Reggie Young. WHEREAS, the members of this General Assembly were saddened to learn of the passing of Reggie Young of Nashville, a humble gentleman whose talents as a guitarist were incomparable among his peers yet accessible to the average listener; and WHEREAS, during a brilliant career that spanned seven decades, Reggie Young served as the anchor of house bands at Memphis's Royal Studios/Hi Records and American Studios and was later one of Nashville's finest session players; and WHEREAS, greatly revered among his peers, Reggie Young was not a household name, but his signature work on guitar and sitar continues to be heard and appreciated worldwide; and WHEREAS, his talents earned him engagements with a stunning array of artists, from Bob Dylan to Gladys Knight, the Staple Singers to Paul Simon, Herbie Mann to Joe Cocker, and B.B. King to Sinead O'Connor; and WHEREAS, Mr. Young played on many monumentally popular recordings, including Dusty Springfield's "Son of a Preacher Man," the Box Tops' "Cry Like a Baby," Elvis Presley's "Suspicious Minds" and "In the Ghetto," and literally hundreds of other hits and classics; and WHEREAS, always a self-effacing professional, Reggie Young never sought to stand out among his fellow musicians in the studio; he played within the context of the song, adding special touches that magically made the song and the recording better, but he also excelled as a soloist when need be; and WHEREAS, he invented and played the iconic opening to Dobie Gray's "Drift Away" on the spot in the studio and recorded one of the greatest sitar solos of all-time on B.J.

Photo by Richard Strauss, Smithsonian Institution Rhythm and Blues 53 Tell It Like It Is by Mark Puryear In 1964 The Dixie Cups®, a female vocal trio from New Orleans, crooned out a cheerful version of “Chapel of Love” and knocked the Beatles from their number one spot on the pop charts. A year later, the trio released “Iko Iko,” a song first released in 1954 by James “Sugar Boy” Crawford as “Jock-A-Mo,” whose lyrics recount the meeting of two groups of Mardi Gras Indians. Since then, this song has been cov- ered by artists from the Grateful Dead to Cyndi Lauper, and continues to move new generations with its infectious New Orleans rhythms. The career of The Dixie Cups, and their direct and indirect roles in carrying rhythm and blues (R&B) into mainstream consciousness, speaks to the enduring pow- er of this music to transcend region and musical category and become a representative sound of the country. Musical Crossroads by Dwandalyn Reece The National Museum of African American History of musical genres, highlighting musical innovations, and Culture (NMAAHC) was established by an act of significant time periods and events along with Congress in 2003 making it the nineteenth museum historic performances to capture the music’s impact of the Smithsonian Institution.

  • Magnus Hoem, Juni 2018, Trondheim
    Forord I det jeg gikk inn i prosessen med å velge tema hadde jeg en baktanke om å finne noe som ikke var så nøye utforsket fra før. Jeg hadde også et ønske om å finne et interessant og appellerende tema som kunne dekke mine interesser for både trommer, musikkutøvelse og svart musikk. Valget falt på en trommeslager som spilte på hitlåt etter hitlåt på 1960- og 1970-tallet, og som i nyere tid ikke har fått så mye oppmerksomhet. Denne oppgaven vil derfor handle om trommeslageren Al Jackson Jr., mest kjent fra sin tid i Stax Records, som en del av husbandet Booker T & the MGs. Takk til veileder, professor John Howland, for verdifulle innspill og tips, utømmelig faglig kunnskap, og en genuin interesse for temaet. Takk også til Stine og Frans for all tålmodighet og støtte i prosessen med å fullføre denne oppgaven.

  • 2019 Education Curriculum Guide
    Tennessee Academic Standards 2019 EDUCATION CURRICULUM GUIDE MEMPHIS IN MAY INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL Celebrates Memphis in 2019 For the fi rst time in its 43-year history, Memphis in May breaks with tradition to make the City of Memphis and Shelby County the year-long focus of its annual salute. Rather than another country, the 2019 Memphis in May Festival honors Memphis and Shelby County as both celebrate their bicentennials and the start of a new century for the city and county. Memphis has changed the world and will continue to change the world. We are a city of doers, dreamers, and believers. We create, we invent, we experiment; and this year, we invite the world to experience our beautiful home on the banks of the Mississippi River. The Bluff City…Home of the Blues, Soul, and Rock & Roll…a city where “Grit and Grind” are more than our team’s slogan, they’re who we are: determined, passionate, authentic, soulful, unstoppable. With more than a million residents in its metro area, the City of Memphis is a city of authenticity and diversity where everyone is welcomed. While some come because of its reputation as a world-renown incubator of talent grown from its rich musical legacy, Memphis draws many to its leading hospital and research systems, putting Memphis at the leading edge of medical and bioscience innovation. Situated nearly in the middle of the United States at the crossroads of major interstates, rail lines, the world’s second-busiest cargo airport, and the fourth-largest inland port on the Mississippi River, Memphis moves global commerce as the leader in transportation and logistics.

    Contact: Alisse Kingsley/Muse Media FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 323-467-8508: e: [email protected] DEE DEE BRIDGEWATER'S NEW ALBUM, "MEMPHIS...YES, I'M READY," SET FOR RELEASE SEPTEMBER 15TH VIA DDB RECORDS/OKEH/SONY MASTERWORKS Eagerly-Anticipated Project Has Been In The Works For Several Years As Bridgewater Returned To Her Birth City To Continue The Musical Exploration Of Her Roots And Influences “These were songs I listened to on the famous Black radio station WDIA, where my own father, Matthew Garrett, was a young on-air DJ with the moniker ‘Matt the Platter Cat.’ I was born in Memphis but my family migrated north to Flint, Michigan, when I was 3 years old. The South has always remained buried inside me, and coming back for this recording project has brought me full circle in my life.” -- Dee Dee Bridgewater Memphis, Tennessee. Every picture tells a story; every journey begins differently. The story of Dee Dee Bridgewater's stunning new album, "Memphis...Yes, I'm Ready," begins in that city, where she was born at Collins * 2658 Griffith Park Blvd., Suite726 * Los Angeles, CA * 90039* Chapel Hospital, located not far from where the album was recorded at Producer Willie Mitchell's historic Royal Studios. Dee Dee's father, a trumpet player also affectionately known as "Matt the Platter Cat" was a DJ at WDIA, the top Memphis radio station. Even when the family moved to neighboring Flint, Michigan, as a young girl Dee Dee would listen to the great sounds of the Memphis music scene by tuning-in late night from across state lines.
