  • Young Americans to Emotional Rescue: Selected Meetings
    YOUNG AMERICANS TO EMOTIONAL RESCUE: SELECTING MEETINGS BETWEEN DISCO AND ROCK, 1975-1980 Daniel Kavka A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC August 2010 Committee: Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Katherine Meizel © 2010 Daniel Kavka All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Disco-rock, composed of disco-influenced recordings by rock artists, was a sub-genre of both disco and rock in the 1970s. Seminal recordings included: David Bowie’s Young Americans; The Rolling Stones’ “Hot Stuff,” “Miss You,” “Dance Pt.1,” and “Emotional Rescue”; KISS’s “Strutter ’78,” and “I Was Made For Lovin’ You”; Rod Stewart’s “Do Ya Think I’m Sexy“; and Elton John’s Thom Bell Sessions and Victim of Love. Though disco-rock was a great commercial success during the disco era, it has received limited acknowledgement in post-disco scholarship. This thesis addresses the lack of existing scholarship pertaining to disco-rock. It examines both disco and disco-rock as products of cultural shifts during the 1970s. Disco was linked to the emergence of underground dance clubs in New York City, while disco-rock resulted from the increased mainstream visibility of disco culture during the mid seventies, as well as rock musicians’ exposure to disco music. My thesis argues for the study of a genre (disco-rock) that has been dismissed as inauthentic and commercial, a trend common to popular music discourse, and one that is linked to previous debates regarding the social value of pop music.

  • Songstress Marilyn Ashford-Brown “Herstory” in the Making
    Songstress Marilyn Ashford-Brown “Herstory” in the Making Marilyn Ashford-Brown is an American Singer-Songwriter and Recording Artist of trans-continental acclaim, who followed Paul Anka’s lyric lead in his hit tune, My Way, by doing it “her” way. In today’s ever-changing, youth-targeted music industry, R&B veteran Marilyn Ashford-Brown has not allowed the new epochs of the marketplace to hamper her musical ontogeny. For more than three decades the Washington, D. C. native has performed stateside throughout the surrounding Metropolitan Areas of the Nation’s Capital. She has also wowed audiences abroad, working venues in Hamburg, Germany, The United Kingdom, Amsterdam, and Costa Brava, Spain, largely by word of mouth and social media outlets. With five (5) independently released cd’s to her credit, Marilyn wrote and co-produced ninety seven percent of the songs. She attributes her international success to her 2009 cd release entitled Just Doing Me, and simply trusting her instincts. Track one of that release, I’ve Got A Feeling, even today, remains timeless and of the moment. Although this cut did not garner much airplay on domestic radio stations, it managed to secure a spot on the playlists of international radio stations, including Tokyo, which led to international performance opportunities. Washington Post freelance writer, Mike Joyce, gave the Just Doing Me! release a glaring review in the publication’s September 4, 2009 Weekend edition. 1 Inspired at an early age by Diana Ross and The Supremes, Marilyn knew that music would be her life. She formed her first singing group, Nature’s Children, while in junior high school.
