  • THE SHARED INFLUENCES and CHARACTERISTICS of JAZZ FUSION and PROGRESSIVE ROCK by JOSEPH BLUNK B.M.E., Illinois State University, 2014
    COMMON GROUND: THE SHARED INFLUENCES AND CHARACTERISTICS OF JAZZ FUSION AND PROGRESSIVE ROCK by JOSEPH BLUNK B.M.E., Illinois State University, 2014 A thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Colorado in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Master in Jazz Performance and Pedagogy Department of Music 2020 Abstract Blunk, Joseph Michael (M.M., Jazz Performance and Pedagogy) Common Ground: The Shared Influences and Characteristics of Jazz Fusion and Progressive Rock Thesis directed by Dr. John Gunther In the late 1960s through the 1970s, two new genres of music emerged: jazz fusion and progressive rock. Though typically thought of as two distinct styles, both share common influences and stylistic characteristics. This thesis examines the emergence of both genres, identifies stylistic traits and influences, and analyzes the artistic output of eight different groups: Return to Forever, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Miles Davis’s electric ensembles, Tony Williams Lifetime, Yes, King Crimson, Gentle Giant, and Soft Machine. Through qualitative listenings of each group’s musical output, comparisons between genres or groups focus on instances of one genre crossing over into the other. Though many examples of crossing over are identified, the examples used do not necessitate the creation of a new genre label, nor do they demonstrate the need for both genres to be combined into one. iii Contents Introduction………………………………………………………………………………… 1 Part One: The Emergence of Jazz………………………………………………………….. 3 Part Two: The Emergence of Progressive………………………………………………….. 10 Part Three: Musical Crossings Between Jazz Fusion and Progressive Rock…………….... 16 Part Four: Conclusion, Genre Boundaries and Commonalities……………………………. 40 Bibliography……………………………………………………………………………….

Alongside this series of reissues, a number of live albums and compilations have been released, of varying quality and varying interest to both the hardcore Gentle Giant fan and the nouveau audient. Santa Monica 1975 is one of these archival live releases, recorded, as the title infers, in Santa Monica California on 1 January 1975. Two additional tracks have been included to fill out the set, taken from a performance in Dallas TX on 19 March 1977. The iteration of the band featured here is generally considered to be the classic line-up; Kerry Minnear (keys, cello, vocals), Derek Shulman (vocals, sax), Gary Green (guitar), John Weathers (drums) and Ray Shulman (bass, violin, vocals). Sound quality is a bit of an issue here from time to time, most heavily seen on the album’s opening track, which sounds as if it had been recorded by a poorly aligned cassette deck on tapes covered in grape jam and under 15 feet of rushing water. This does fairly quickly resolve itself, reaching the level of a decent, but heavily generated, analogue recording of this vintage. From a positive standpoint, Santa Monica 1975 showcases a band near the top of their musical powers, playing tight and complex progressive rock heavy on multiple vocal parts, counterpoint, and layers of instrumentation playing with and against each other.

Arising out of the ashes of Simon Dupree And The Big Sound, a hard-working R&B unit playing the pub circuit in and out of London in the mid-60s who scoreda UK Top Ten hit in 1967 with “Kites” (B-side w/ “Like The Sun Like The Fire”), Gentle Giant releasedits self-titled debut album in 1970, consisting of a mixture of blues, rock, and soul while infusing a touch of the progressive elements that would so set apart Gentle Giant from its fellow and (unfortunately) frequently moresuccessful British counter- parts: King Crimson, ELP Yes and Genesis. The Giant would release 11 studio albums and onelive album from 1970-1980. To-state that Gentle Giant's music was progressiveis a tremendous understatement.

  • First International Conference of the ACADPROG Network Dedicated to Progressive Rock
    CALL FOR PAPER For the First International Conference of the ACADPROG Network dedicated to progressive rock Introduction to ACADPROG Network Thanks to the initiative of Allan Moore, many researchers from various horizons have decided to create ACADPROG in 2011. From the beginning, this international network has decided to use their various fields of competences to study all the aspects of progressive rock, a style of music born at the end of the 1960s. In order for their work to acquire a certain visibility and for this new field of research to find a place within the field of popular music studies, ACADPROG is organising its first international conference on the 10th, 11th and 12th december 2014 in Dijon (France), thanks to the support of the University of Burgundy, the GC and CIMEOS laboratories and some institutional partners. Have you said prog rock ? From a musical point of view, this trend is characterised by references to classical music (from the baroque to contemporary music) as well as jazz music, through its taste for long instrumental developments and its marked interest for sound innovation. Beyond the sound aspect, this music is also inspired by literature (especially heroic fantasy and science fiction) for its lyrics and illustrations, while it also included some theatricality in its performances. While most of the groups who new international fame in the middle of the 1970s originated from Great Britain (Pink Floyd, Soft Machine, Genesis, King Crimson, Yes, ELP, Van Der Graff Generator, Jethro Tull, Roxy Music, Hatfied and the North, Supertramp, UK, Marillon etc.), a few French, Italian, North American and Japanese bands also had an international career.

    ANKH, UJDA, SENEB (LIFE, STRENGTH, HEALTH): “LET FOOD BE THY MEDICINE,” AN EPISTEMIC EXAMINATION ON THE GENEALOGY OF THE AFRICANA HOLISTIC HEALTH TRADITION, WITH PRELIMINARY CONSIDERATIONS IN THE CITY OF PHILADELPHIA, 1967 TO THE PRESENT A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR of PHILOSOPHY by Heru Setepenra Heq-m-Ta Department of African American Studies December 2016 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Nathaniel Norment, Jr., Advisory Chair, African American Studies, Temple University Dr. Greg Kimathi Carr, Afro-American Studies, Howard University Dr. Abu Shardow Abarry, African American Studies, Temple University Dr. Wilbert Jenkins, History, Temple University Dr. Mario Hollis Beatty, External Member, Afro-American Studies, Howard University © Copyright 2016 by Heru Setepenra Heq-m-Ta All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT The utilization of natural elements of the earth to remedy corporeal maladies dates back to the medical systems of ancient Nile Valley culture. Given the continuity and intergenerational transmission of knowledge evident in African expressions of culture, these olden naturalistic health techniques, throughout time, have continuously been used as therapeutic modalities by posterior African cultures—both continental and Diasporic. Due to its tripartite approach to healing—of mind, body and spirit— this age-old African healing tradition has gained popularity in contemporary times and is commonly known today as the locution: holistic health. The principal objective of this intellectual project is to reveal an unbroken genealogy of a thriving Africana holistic health tradition upheld by both advocates and practitioners in the field. Notwithstanding the current state of health of Africans residing in the United States, the praxis of these ancient healing customs is extant within communities which the population is predominately African.

  • Rock Music Lyrics As Postmodern Poetry: Gentle Giant 'Realization'
    Martin Neef (Braunschweig, Germany) Rock music lyrics as postmodern poetry: Gentle Giant 'Realization' 1. Introduction: Rock music and rock music poetry In this paper, I talk about the text Realization of the British rock band Gentle Giant, which has released records in the period from 1970 to 1980. First, I will trace the story of Gentle Giant. Then I will turn to a particular text of this band, Realization. In doing so, I will first try to prove the existence of this text and determine its limits. Then I will go into the basic structure of this text and discuss some of the thematic focuses that I will address in the chapters In a glass house, The game, und Goodbye. In effect, my aim is to argue that Derek Shulman, a member of Gentle Giant, is among the most important postmodern lyricists of the 20th century. Lyrics of rock music are not at the centre of the scientific preoccupation with literary texts. Seriously taken poetry is first and foremost written poetry. This applies at least to contemporary poetry, less to old forms of poetry. I would like to plead for rock music in general and rock music lyrics in particular to be regarded as an art form to be taken seriously in cultural studies. If postmodernism is first and foremost a historical epoch, it can undoubtedly be said that rock music is one of the genres that has experienced the greatest boom in this epoch. If the term postmodernism is to be defined more in content than in history, one should at least be prepared to concede the grade postmodern to some works of rock music.
