    David Janssen and Edward Whitelock. 2009. Apocalypse Jukebox: The End of the World in American Popular Music. Berkeley: Soft Skull Press/Counterpoint LLC. Reviewed by David Gutkin While any attempt to characterize a nation and "a people" is bound to expire in dubious generalization, claims about the essence of the United States and constitution of the "American character" have often been marked by especially outlandish and totalizing rhetoric-by American and non-American writers alike, both affirmatively and critically. j One example is Jean Baudrillard's 1986 book America. Poised as the postmodern successor to Alexis de Tocqueville, Baudrillard, perceiving American culture simultaneously as pre-civilized (an old trope) and as the paradigm of hypermodern simulacral "spectrality," characterizes the nation as both "the only remaining primitive society" and as "a giant hologram."2 If representations of the United States from the last half-century are inflected by the post-World War II phase of American exceptionalism, this has affected not only imperial apologists and vulgar nationalists but even, residually, writers on the left, like Baudrillard. More generally, the United States has always been a strongly symbolic nation, whether imagined as the singular beacon of democracy or as the paradoxical no-place/no-face oflate capitalism. For this reason, critical studies of the American mythos are important, and, as Greil Marcus realized some decades ago, popular music serves as a good lens through which to view the agglomerated fragments of"America."3 Clearly indebted to Marcus, David Janssen and Edward Whitelock, profes­ sors of English at Gordon College and authors of Apocalypse Jukebox: The End of the World in American Popular Music, take as their entry point into the American imagination a perceived deep relationship between rock and apocalyptic thought.

  • The 50 Best Albums of 2017 | New York Music Daily
    N E W Y O R K M U S I C D A I L Y A VIVID, CONSCIENTIOUS BROOKLYN PHOTOGRAPHER ABOUT ARCHIVES FAQS HOW NOT TO GET PRESS HERE HOW TO GET AROUND THIS SITE INDEX LINKS MOST POPULAR NEW YORK CITY LIVE MUSIC CALENDAR THE NEW YORK MUSIC DAILY PUBLICITY STUNT UPCOMING AT NEW YORK MUSIC DAILY Global Music With a New York Edge The 50 Best Albums of 2017 by delarue Scroll down for links to stream each of the albums here…except for the very newest one, which happens to be #1. The best and most relevant album of 2017 was Fukushima, by the Satoko Fujii Orchestra New York. This haunting, epic five-part suite is not a narrative of the grim events of March 11, 2011, but rather the Tokyo-born pianist/bandleader’s reflection on personal terror and horror in the wake of the worst nuclear disaster in world history. Fujii’s stock in trade is not political music. Her vast catalog – over eighty albums as a leader or co-leader since the 90s – encompasses everything from epic improvisational soundscapes, to dark, acerbic piano compositions, rainy-day Japanese-flavored jazz-folk and collaborations with a global cast of artists. This may be her greatest achievement to date, as lush and sweeping as it is anthemically tuneful. And as a response to greed- fueled attempts to cover up the deadly environmental damage caused by the meltdowns, it’s as savage as Shostakovich’s greatest symphonies or Charles Mingus’ political broadsides. It’s not streaming anywhere at present (end of December 2017), but it’s just out and available from Fujii’s Libra Records.

  • Record Dreams Catalog
    RECORD DREAMS 50 Hallucinations and Visions of Rare and Strange Vinyl Vinyl, to: vb. A neologism that describes the process of immersing yourself in an antique playback format, often to the point of obsession - i.e. I’m going to vinyl at Utrecht, I may be gone a long time. Or: I vinyled so hard that my bank balance has gone up the wazoo. The end result of vinyling is a record collection, which is defned as a bad idea (hoarding, duplicating, upgrading) often turned into a good idea (a saleable archive). If you’re reading this, you’ve gone down the rabbit hole like the rest of us. What is record collecting? Is it a doomed yet psychologically powerful wish to recapture that frst thrill of adolescent recognition or is it a quite understandable impulse to preserve and enjoy totemic artefacts from the frst - perhaps the only - great age of a truly mass art form, a mass youth culture? Fingering a particularly juicy 45 by the Stooges, Sweet or Sylvester, you could be forgiven for answering: fuck it, let’s boogie! But, you know, you’re here and so are we so, to quote Double Dee and Steinski, what does it all mean? Are you looking for - to take a few possibles - Kate Bush picture discs, early 80s Japanese synth on the Vanity label, European Led Zeppelin 45’s (because of course they did not deign to release singles in the UK), or vastly overpriced and not so good druggy LPs from the psychedelic fatso’s stall (Rainbow Ffolly, we salute you)? Or are you just drifting, browsing, going where the mood and the vinyl takes you? That’s where Utrecht scores.

  • Interview with Bruce Botnick, Producer Of
    This interview with BRUCE BOTNICK, co-producer of “Forever Changes” by Love,” was conducted by the Library of Congress on August 10, 2016. Bruce Botnick LIBRARY OF CONGRESS: Legend has it that there was a lot of in-fighting among the members of Love at the start of this album’s recording. Is that true? Did you know that going in? And how did you mitigate that? BRUCE BOTNICK: I tried not to get too involved in the drama. The reason we brought in the Wrecking Crew [a group of talented studio musicians working in LA at the time] was that the band really was just not together; they didn’t have a common purpose. Arthur [Lee] was actually starting to look to replacing parts of the band but never verbally said it out loud, but the band could feel it. So, in this instance, when we brought in the Wrecking Crew, it rattled the band’s cage a bit, causing them to come to the front and then they played really well. They didn’t want to end up not being part of the album. LOC: You have worked with both the Doors and Love. Can you compare your studio experiences with both groups? BB: With the Doors you had four individuals who were one. With Love, you had one individual—Arthur Lee. Arthur wrote most of the music and the lyrics. The record was all Arthur’s, except for the two songs Bryan MacLean wrote, “Alone Again Or.” and the beautiful and haunting “Old Man.” But Arthur was it.
