  • Love, Oh Love, Oh Careless Love
    Love, Oh Love, Oh Careless Love Careless Love is perhaps the most enduring of traditional folk songs. Of obscure origins, the song’s message is that “careless love” could care less who it hurts in the process. Although the lyrics have changed from version to version, the words usually speak of the pain and heartbreak brought on by love that can take one totally by surprise. And then things go terribly wrong. In many instances, the song’s narrator threatens to kill his or her errant lover. “Love is messy like a po-boy – leaving you drippin’ in debris.” Now, this concept of love is not the sentiment of this author, but, for some, love does not always go right. Countless artists have recorded Careless Love. Rare photo of “Buddy” Bolden Lonnie Johnson New Orleans cornetist and early jazz icon Charles Joseph “Buddy” Bolden played this song and made it one of the best known pieces in his band’s repertory in the early 1900s, and it has remained both a jazz standard and blues standard. In fact, it’s a folk, blues, country and jazz song all rolled into one. Bessie Smith, the Empress of the Blues, cut an extraordinary recording of the song in 1925. Lonnie Johnson of New Orleans recorded it in 1928. It is Pete Seeger’s favorite folk song. Careless Love has been recorded by Louis Armstrong, Ray Charles, Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash. Fats Domino recorded his version in 1951. Crescent City jazz clarinetist George Lewis (born Joseph Louis Francois Zenon, 1900 – 1968) played it, as did other New Orleans performers, such as Dr.

  • Neville Brothers -- the first Family of New Orleans Music -- Has Vowed Not to Return to New Orleans
    Dec. 15, 2005-- Cyril Neville boarded Amtrak's City of New Orleans train with a full head of steam. He joined singer-songwriter Arlo Guthrie earlier this month for the first leg of a 12-day journey from Chicago to New Orleans, playing concerts along the way to raise funds for victims of Hurricane Katrina. Neville, however, won't be on the train when it rolls into his old hometown. He won't be going home at all. Neville, 56, percussionist-vocalist and youngest member of the Neville Brothers -- the first family of New Orleans music -- has vowed not to return to New Orleans. During a heartfelt conversation before embarking on the train journey, Neville explained he and his wife, Gaynielle, have bought a home in Austin, Texas. Cyril Neville joins his nephew Ivan Neville, as well as the Radiators and the Iguanas as popular New Orleans acts who have settled in Austin. Some even perform in an ad hoc band known as the Texiles. They sing a different song about the promised recovery of New Orleans. "Would I go back to live?" Neville asked. "There's nothing there. And the situation for musicians was a joke. People thought there was a New Orleans music scene -- there wasn't. You worked two times a year: Mardi Gras and Jazz Fest. The only musicians I knew who made a living playing music in New Orleans were Kermit Ruffins and Pete Fountain. Everyone else had to have a day job or go on tour. I have worked more in two months in Austin than I worked in two years in New Orleans.

  • 2)GEORGE PORTER Jr Di Massimo Luna.Pdf
    Introduzione: Ci troviamo a 1Vew Orleans tra gli anni 60' e 70'. Un periodo particolarmente fertile e creativo, che favorì la nascita della musica R & B e Funk. E' la New Orleans delle band che nascono dalla strada, dei musicisti che imparano a suonare da qualcuno che sa suonare meglio di loro, conle una sorta di tradizione orale, di insegnamento non scritto e del tutto legato all'esperienza diretta. La sera si va nei locali, si suona, si fanno Jam Sessions, è cosi che nascono le nuove formazioni, i nuovi gruppi. Questa è la realtà in cui vive George Porter Jr.. Lui stesso in un' intervista racconta quanto sia stato importante, anche a livello umano, crescere in quell'ambiente. Tra le esperienze più sigriificative per George c'è sicuramente quella con "the Meters", definil:i una delle più grandi band rock-fusion degli anni 701,con all'attivo 11 dischi in 15 anni circa di attività. Loro sono stati la prima jam band della storia, come dichiara lo stesso George. Andavano sul palco e suonavano partendo da qualcosa di stabilito, per poi virare verso il riff o il carribio che qualche membro del gruppo aveva proposto sul momento.. .un perfetto esempio di interplay! I loro brani presentavano spesso delle parti "open", con dei pedali e con qualche solo di organo. Ai nostri giorni è usuale che rapper ed esponenti della musica hip hop, usino alcuni loro brani come basi per rappare sopra, vista la forte spinta ritmica da cui sono caratterizzati. Biografia: George Porter Jr. nasce nel 1947 a New Orleans Louisiana.

  • To Jazz Fest
    Tulane University She brings "Soul Power" to Jazz Fest May 03, 2012 2:30 AM Ryan Rivet [email protected] Five days a week, Melissa Weber is a manager in the Office of Cocurricular Programs of Newcomb- Tulane College. At nights and on weekends, however, she takes to the airwaves and club stages as her alter ego, D.J. Soul Sister. Tulane staff member Melissa Weber, a.k.a. D.J. Soul Sister, spreads the word about the music she loves. (Photo by Marc Pagani) Weber, who's hosted her “Soul Power” program on WWOZ-FM radio for 16 years, also has brought her show to the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival as both a performer and interviewer since 2009. A respected live disc jockey artist, Weber opened for Cee Lo Green on the Congo Square stage last weekend and interviewed drummer Bill Summers on the Allison Miner Music Heritage Stage. “This year was absolutely great, maybe my favorite experience out of all four years,” Weber says. “I really wanted to tap into the fun energy of Cee Lo, and so I did that with the music I played. The crowd was so energetic, like I've never seen before.” She uses both the performance and the interview as a “means to the same end,” Weber says. “My mission [is] sharing soulful music and stories of the pioneers who have paved the way,” Weber says. “I'm honored to do both in order to support the music and musicians that I believe in and have loved since I was very young.” Tulane University | New Orleans | 504-865-5210 | [email protected] Tulane University Weber describes herself as “extremely camera shy,” so it seems odd that she could be so passionate about being in front of large crowds.

  • Big Organ Trio Has Emerged As a Band with a Truly Unique Voice
    Band Contact: Booking Contact: [email protected] Jim Wadsworth Productions 330-405-9075 [email protected] Bio "This isn 't your standard jazz trio", remarked Jambands.com. Since its inception in 2004, Big Organ Trio has emerged as a band with a truly unique voice. Their acclaimed debut CD was released in 2006 and has led to thousands of music and merchandise sales in addition to concerts across the U.S. and internationally. B.O.T. 's groundbreaking approach to the organ trio format has drawn the attention of Keyboard Magazine, who featured the band in 2006, and many of the world 's greatest Hammond players. The combo has played with Keith Emerson (Emerson, Lake, & Palmer) and shared the stage with Melvin Seals (Jerry Garcia Band). Gregg Rolie (vocalist/organist from Santana) and Tony Monaco (world renowned jazz organist) have also commented on the trio 's fresh and inventive sound. High profile performances at major music festivals such as 10,000 Lakes Festival (MN) and Fillmore Jazz Festival (SF) as well as shows with the likes of Robby Krieger (The Doors), Umphrey 's McGee, Leo Nocentelli (The Meters), and Stanton Moore (Galactic) have helped fuel the buzz. With an exploding fan-base worldwide and gigantic internet presence the band has won fan voting polls on websites such as Jambands.com and seen their debut album become the top selling Hammond Organ album on CDbaby.com. B.O.T. music can also be heard on networks such as E! Channel and radio programs around the globe. Mike Mangan (Hammond B3 Organ), Bernie Bauer (Electric Bass), and Brett McConnell (Drums) all share a great love and respect for the old school spirit of blues and jazz improvisation.

  • The Long History of Indigenous Rock, Metal, and Punk
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Not All Killed by John Wayne: The Long History of Indigenous Rock, Metal, and Punk 1940s to the Present A thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in American Indian Studies by Kristen Le Amber Martinez 2019 © Copyright by Kristen Le Amber Martinez 2019 ABSTRACT OF THESIS Not All Killed by John Wayne: Indigenous Rock ‘n’ Roll, Metal, and Punk History 1940s to the Present by Kristen Le Amber Martinez Master of Arts in American Indian Studies University of California Los Angeles, 2019 Professor Maylei Blackwell, Chair In looking at the contribution of Indigenous punk and hard rock bands, there has been a long history of punk that started in Northern Arizona, as well as a current diverse scene in the Southwest ranging from punk, ska, metal, doom, sludge, blues, and black metal. Diné, Apache, Hopi, Pueblo, Gila, Yaqui, and O’odham bands are currently creating vast punk and metal music scenes. In this thesis, I argue that Native punk is not just a cultural movement, but a form of survivance. Bands utilize punk and their stories as a conduit to counteract issues of victimhood as well as challenge imposed mechanisms of settler colonialism, racism, misogyny, homophobia, notions of being fixed in the past, as well as bringing awareness to genocide and missing and murdered Indigenous women. Through D.I.Y. and space making, bands are writing music which ii resonates with them, and are utilizing their own venues, promotions, zines, unique fashion, and lyrics to tell their stories.

You may be surprised to find out that the lead vocalist and creator of Adwela and the Uprising was a football star, semi-pro football coach and team owner. However, after you hear and see the group share their talents, it’s believable that someone has a remarkable ability to pull together a team of people to do their incredible reggae presentations. Most of the facts about this phenomenal reggae group can be found on their website: www.AdwelaAndTheUprising.com which is fine. But to have the best experience with Adwela and the Uprising, you should see and here them live at one of their engagements. This story wouldn’t be happening if I would not have heard and saw them during their open for the legendary Wailers at the Irie Wine Beer, Reggae and Jazz Festival at Shiley Acres in Inwood, West Virginia this fall. Asking myself, “How does this group rank to open for the famous Wailers”? Winning the Virginia Reggae awards, “Favorite New Artist” award is one way to get you in a lineup with the Wailers.
