School Day Live the RHYTHM & BLUES REVUE with THE School Day Live THE RHYTHM & BLUES REVUE WITH THE MICHAEL-DAVID BAND Friday, May 3, 2019 11:30 a.m. TEACHER’S GUIDE The Apollo Theater Education Program is pleased to present The Rhythm & Blues Revue with the Michael-David Band, as part of our 2018/19 School Day Live season. Through, The Rhythm & Blues Revue will be comprised of “road trip” that will take students to different cities around the country in order to understand the historical context of Rhythm &Blues and how the music reflected societal, political, and cultural changes in America. Beginning with the birth of Rhythm & Blues in the 1940s, we will travel through the decades of the 20th century arriving to the present day and the lasting influence of Rhythm & Blues on contemporary performers. This interactive performance will also show how songs are created and include opportunities for audience participation. Additionally, students will learn that: o Rhythm & Blues is an art form rooted in the Gospel and Blues traditions; o Songs are stories that reflect personal and social concerns; o Music combines personalized vocal delivery with arranged accompaniment; and o Rhythm & Blues is a musical genre that continues to influence music worldwide. As with the Great Migrations of Black people from the more rural areas of the American south to cities in the north, east and western parts of the U.S., the story of Rhythm & Blues is one of movement. The sound of Rhythm & Blues has been influenced as much by the regional location of its creators and performers as by its origins in Gospel music, Jazz and the Blues. The Rhythm and Blues Student Study Guide provides essential information on the history of Rhythm & Blues and can also be used as a pre- and post-performance tool. The Guide includes links to several online videos that will provide you and your students with a better idea of the performers and performance styles discussed in the Guide and in the show. The Student Study Guide can be used pre- or post-performance to connect students to American history and the ways in which Rhythm & Blues has been used to express a range of ideas. The information can also be applied to the English Language Arts, a Social Studies, and/or Arts curriculum. A suggested lesson follows which includes essential questions, Common Core Learning Standards and Blueprint for Teaching and Learning in the Arts benchmarks. APOLLO THEATER EDUCATION PROGRAM |253 WEST 125TH STREET NEW YORK, NY 10027|(212)531-5363 |APOLLOTHEATER.ORG The Apollo has a long and storied history with Rhythm & Blues which dates back to the late 1940s. The original Rhythm & Blues Revue provided a very successful show format for the Apollo in the 1950s and 1960s. (Take a look at the film, Rhythm & Blues Revue, which was inspired by the Apollo’s revue format and features performers who frequently appeared on the Apollo stage during this period.) For further context on this musical genre, take a look at our String Stories study guide which discusses the history of stringed instruments in the creation of the Blues as well as regional influences on the music. About the Michael-David Band Singer and actor Michael-David Gordon is a dynamic entertainer who explores pop and R&B drawing on his experience with the Temptations, as an actor with the Irondale Ensemble Project, and as a featured vocalist with several NY groups. With a love of music that connects with audiences anywhere, he has wowed crowds from NYC’s subway stations to St. Petersburg, Russia. Band Members: Michael-David Gordon, vocals Hollis Headrick, drums Adam Armstrong, bass Ilya Lushtak, guitar Rob Henke, trumpet Felicia Renae, vocals Irwin Hall, tenor sax Logan Evan Thomas, piano/keyboards Feel free to contact us if you have any questions. We look forward to seeing you at the world famous Apollo on May 3rd. Enjoy the show! APOLLO THEATER EDUCATION PROGRAM |253 WEST 125TH STREET NEW YORK, NY 10027|(212)531-5363 |APOLLOTHEATER.ORG SUGGESTED LESSON: Rhythm & Blues Café During the performance on May 3rd, three songs will be presented which focus on how artists have related societal concerns through the genre of Rhythm & Blues in their songs. The songs are Love Train by the O’Jays, What’s Going On, by Marvin Gaye and Ain’t No Stoppin’ Us Now, by McFadden and Whitehead. The following lesson is adaptable across grade levels 3 – 12. Objective: Students will create an original song that reflects their feelings about a particular topic or issue. (DOK 4) Lesson Overview Students are encouraged to create a song about an issue, and to mimic the rhythm, tone, and emotions of the Rhythm & Blues songs they’ve heard. Students’ knowledge of the issues, situations, and emotions that inspire Rhythm & Blues will help them understand the feelings evoked in the performance by The Michael-David Band. Essential Questions How do Rhythm & Blues artists relay messages about and make connections to societal events through their work? How do song lyrics demonstrate the artists’ passions and interests? In what ways do the song lyrics, tones, and emotions created through Rhythm & Blues music connect to poetry? How do current events and occurrences in society connect to song lyrics? Activities Do Now: 3-2-1 10 min. Ask students listen to and review the lyrics for one of the songs. Based on what they have heard and read, have them list topics they think helped inspire the song. Instruct students to turn and talk with a classmate to help one another narrow down the topics to two. Ask the students to narrow down the two topics to one that they are most passionate about. Song Writing 15 min. Using the lyrics of “What’s Going On” and “Love Train” as a guide, ask students to create a song title and a few verses of a song that show how they feel about the topic they have chosen. Students should seek to mimic the rhythms presented and feelings evoked in the songs they’ve heard during the week. Encourage any students who would like to share out their songs. Main Activity: Rhythm & Blues Cafe 20 min. Ask students to share their songs with the class. Students can sing their songs, recite their songs in a poetic style, or present it in any way they feel comfortable. As each student presents their song, ask other students to write down what topics and emotions are illustrated in the songs that are presented. APOLLO THEATER EDUCATION PROGRAM |253 WEST 125TH STREET NEW YORK, NY 10027|(212)531-5363 |APOLLOTHEATER.ORG Common Core Learning Standards: SL-1(a) Engage effectively in a range of collaborative discussions (one-on-one, in groups, and teacher- led) with diverse partners on grade 4 topics and texts, building on others’ ideas and expressing their own clearly. L-1 Demonstrate usage of standard English grammar and usage when writing or speaking. SS Participate in activities that focus on a classroom, school, community, state, or national issue or problem. Blueprint for Teaching and Learning in Music: Strands III. Making Connections By investigating historical, social, and cultural contexts, and by exploring common themes and principles connecting music with other disciplines, students enrich their creative work and understand the significance of music in the evolution of human thought and expression. IV. Community and Cultural Resources Students broaden their perspective by working with professional artists and arts organizations that represent diverse cultural and personal approaches to music, and by seeing performances of widely varied music styles and genres. Active partnerships that combine school and local community resources with the full range of New York City’s music and cultural institutions create a fertile ground for students’ music learning and creativity.

Everybody is Talking About the Good Ole Days: RZA on the Soul of Music by Ericka Blount Danois If hip-hop tours, white appropriation, anniversary celebrations, books and hip-hop documentaries aren’t an indication that hip-hop has reached the status of Beatles-style nostalgia and reverence, then releasing a Wu-Tang Clan 20th anniversary reunion album, A BetterTomorrow, is solid proof that the genre has officially arrived. RZA, always the heart of the operation, worked tirelessly to round up the troops and dissolve beefs for the reunion album that dropped Dec. 2, 2014. “I wanted to make a record that pays homage to soul music and hip-hop,” he said about the making of this album. “I went to the past to make something for the future.” RZA came out of his own pockets to fund the album to the tune of half a million dollars. Some of the best in the industry are featured on the album—Rick Rubin, Adrian Younge, David Porter, Kenny Gamble and Rob Cavallo, all had their hands in the pot. Wu-Tang has always done things big and with vision. RZA led the 9-member group to an unprecedented label deal where each member was able to launch solo records. The deal allowed them to become the most revolutionary rap group of the mid-’90s releasing five group and 19 compilation albums totaling over 6 platinum records and over 40 million sold.

    Thanking Mayor William Samaras and the Mayor’s Holiday Fest Planning Committee and all the generous sponsors for helping end youth homelessness in our community! from all the Staff and Students at CTI’s YouthBuild of Greater Lowell Program 155 Merrimack Street, Lowell MA 01852 978.459.0551, www.commteam.org #LowellYouthHousing A Message from Mayor Bill Samaras and Karen Frederick, CEO, CTI Youth homelessness is a persistent problem in the City of Lowell. Community Teamwork estimates that there are over 100 young people in Lowell each year who are experiencing homelessness for a variety of reasons including family conflict and abuse, sexual identity, pregnancy, addiction or mental health issues, contact with the juvenile justice system or aging out of foster care. To help combat this issue and to provide support to these young people in our community, Mayor Bill Samaras is continuing the fundraising effort started last year and we hope that you will join with us to help make it a success once again! All proceeds from the event will be donated to Community Teamwork and their efforts as the lead agency for the Merrimack Valley Youth Consortium that works to prevent youth homelessness. This program has been working with teens to help them reunite with their families or find safe affordable housing on their own. In many cases, it is simply a matter of helping a young person with a security deposit or to clear up past debts that can save them from spending years couch surfing, sleeping in their cars or in places not fit for human habitation.

Trade Mark No. 1584236, LOVE TRAIN, is registered in respect of “Services in the fields of stage presentations, discos, nightclubs, cabarets and dances and publishing; all included in Class 41”. It was applied for on 7 September 1994. The registration process was completed on 11 September 1996. The registration is subject to a disclaimer of the word LOVE but nothing turns on the presence of the disclaimer. 2. On 16 June 2005 Stephen Williams, Dewi Richards, David Bird and David O’Brien (trading as Lovetrain) applied for revocation of this registration claiming non-use during the period ending on 22 June 2004. In the alternative, if the proprietor can show use during that period, the applicants seek revocation with effect from 16 June 2005. Although the statement of grounds does not refer to the relevant Section of the Act, the above claims are clearly intended to relate to Section 46(1)(b) of the Act. At this stage it seems that the attack was against all the services of the specification. 3. The registered proprietor filed a counterstatement and, pursuant to Rule 31 of the Trade Marks Rules 2000 (as amended) evidence of use of the mark under cover of a witness statement from Mr Wanless himself.

Michigan Avenue Chicago, Illinois 60616 [email protected] www.thehistorymakers.com Creator: Levert, Eddie W. Title: The HistoryMakers® Video Oral History Interview with Eddie Levert, Dates: August 28, 2013 Bulk Dates: 2013 Physical 9 uncompressed MOV digital video files (4:21:17). Description: Abstract: R & B singer Eddie Levert (1942 - ) was a founding member of The O’Jays, one of the most prominent R&B music groups of the 1970s. Levert was interviewed by The HistoryMakers® on August 28, 2013, in Henderson, Nevada. This collection is comprised of the original video footage of the interview. Identification: A2013_242 Language: The interview and records are in English. Biographical Note by The HistoryMakers® Singer, and member of the famed O’Jays, Edward “Eddie” Levert, was born June 16, 1942, in Bessemer, Alabama. When Levert was eight years old, he moved with his family to the town of Canton, Ohio, where he attended McKinley High School. At a young age, Levert and childhood friend Walter Williams began performing as a gospel duo. As teenagers, the two were inspired to form a singing group after seeing a performance by Frankie Lyman and the Teenagers. Levert and Williams brought together fellow students Bobby Massey, William Powell, and Billy Isles, to form their first group, The Triumphs. In 1960, The Triumphs signed with Syd Nathan, owner of King Records, and the group was renamed The Mascots. The next year, The Mascots recorded their first single, “Miracles”, which was deemed a local success, and drew the attention of famed Cleveland disc jockey Eddie O’Jay.
