Neal Addresses NHS Class by THOMAS MATTSON TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER NORTHBRIDGE — U.S Mailed free to requesting homes in Douglas, Northbridge and Uxbridge Vol. III, No. 17 Complimentary to homes by request ONLINE: www.blackstonevalleytribune.com “Honesty is the first chapter in the book of wisdom.” Friday, January 22, Neal addresses NHS class BY THOMAS MATTSON TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER NORTHBRIDGE — U.S. Rep. Richard Neal, D-Massachusetts, spoke on a variety of subjects Thursday, Jan. 14, and then answered questions from students at Northbridge High School. Neal noted every bill goes through the House Ways and Means Committee, of which he is a member. He said there are 20 Democrats and 16 Republicans on that committee. He noted the group deals with taxes, tariffs, trade, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and welfare. He said he had worked for educa- tion, health care and manufactur- ing jobs in Massachusetts. “Every tax bill goes through my committee,” Neal said. He noted the importance of growing the economy but also of meeting responsibilities. “We find ourselves in an eco- nomic morass,” he declared of the country. Neal spoke of picking up and going forward, with one slight caveat. He would do that without entering a partisan fray, “but if it becomes a matter of demagoguery (from the other side), I’ll get into it.” By that, the congressman seemed to mean he would not sit Thomas Mattson photo idly by if conservatives attack Congressman Richard Neal (left) with NHS senior James Tabur.

Though he disavowed the role, Garcia was viewed by many as the leader or "spokesman" of the group. One of its founders, Garcia performed with the Grateful Dead for their entire thirty-year career (1965–1995). Garcia also founded and participated in a variety of side projects, including the Saunders-Garcia Band (with longtime friend Merl Saunders), the Jerry Garcia Band, Old and in the Way, the Garcia/Grisman acoustic duo, Legion of Mary, and the New Riders of the Purple Sage (which Garcia co-founded with John Dawson and David Nelson).

  • A Conversation with Sarah Hawker of the Lonesome Sisters by Frank Goodman (8/2006, Puremusic.Com)
    A Conversation with Sarah Hawker of The Lonesome Sisters by Frank Goodman (8/2006, Puremusic.com) Like a marriage, like a boxing match, like figure skating, there is something magical in the duo paradigm. A trio never stands naked like a duo does. But in that nakedness lies a much more intimate and illuminating experience, especially in the rare instances of vocal resonance as one finds in The Lonesome Sisters. Sarah Hawker and Debra Clifford are to the music born, but in much different ways. Debra is a veteran of many old time country and bluegrass groups from upper New York State. She's a very strong guitarist and banjo player, and a superlative vocalist. Sarah grew up a closet singer, dwarfed by a deeply talented Virginia family on one side and musically adrift from a non-artistic family on the other. She tells a stirring story of how she came out as a singer through the death of her musical grandfather, Ben Hawker. She's the niece of Ginny Hawker, a highly regarded singer, and Tracy Schwartz, who was a longtime member of the trailblazing New Lost City Ramblers, who showed the world where old time music was at in the '60s, and for many years to come. The story contained in the following conversation with Sarah includes her fateful meeting with Debra Clifford at a camp of her aunt's. It should be an inspiration to all who have a voice within them that they would like to set free. As only a great duo will do, their music started resonating with other people immediately, the way it did and does with each other.

  • Introductory Essay “Hearing History in Bluegrass's High, Lonesome Sound,” by Rachel Rubin, Professor of American Studies at the University of Massachusetts
    Session Four: Country and Blue Grass Introductory Essay “Hearing History in Bluegrass's High, Lonesome Sound,” by Rachel Rubin, Professor of American Studies at the University of Massachusetts Bluegrass is generally considered a sub-genre of country music that developed in the second half of the 20 th century. Although for purposes of radio airplay bluegrass songs were programmed on country music stations beginning in the late 1940s, bluegrass as a musical form did not develop directly out of the generation of recorded commercial country music that preceded it. Rather, the two forms share the same roots in the traditional music of the Appalachian region and the Irish and Scottish ballads that informed it. The description commonly offered of bluegrass that distinguishes it from mainstream country music is its’ “high lonesome sound.” This phrase was coined in 1963 by New Lost City Ramblers co-founder John Cohen, who used it to name a short film he made about Kentucky mountain music. The “high lonesome sound” quickly became a familiar catch-phrase for bluegrass music's emotionally intense, soaring-to-the-point-of-audible- strain vocal style, a style that often gives even happy songs an undercurrent of bleakness. Musician Bill Monroe, considered the “father of bluegrass,” used to claim that he would practice a song by singing it as high as he could—and then go on stage and sing it a half- step higher. Monroe's boast seems to indicate that part of the bluegrass aesthetic is an underlying anxiety that you might not make it to that “high, lonesome sound”—and a combination of pride and relief when you do.
