At first, Kay’s mother was hesitant, but her aunt had a business sense and saw that there was a future for Kay, insisting that she enter a number of amateur contests, leading to her performances at radio stations in Dallas and Memphis and finally being hired by famous violin­ ist and bandleader Joe Venuti whose guidance helped her achieve fame. She told us about her work with the Bob Crosby Band, her one week stint subbing for Marion Hutton with Glenn Miller at Glen Island Casino and her years with the Charlie Barnet Band, where she recalled pressing Kay Starr Capitol CD cover the band ’ s uniforms as well as being a featured vocalist.

  • Brand New Beat
    Ready for a BRAND NEW BEAT How “DANCING IN THE STREET” Became the Anthem for a Changing America MARK KURLANSKY Riverhead Books A member of Penguin Group (USA) Inc. New York 2013 C H APT E R O N E ARE YOU RE ADY? or my generation rock was not a controversy, it was a fact. F My earliest memory of rock ’n’ roll is Elvis Presley. For others it may be Bill Haley or Chuck Berry. For people born soon after World War II, rock ’n’ roll was a part of childhood. The rock- ers, especially Elvis, are remembered as controversies. But there was no controversy among the kids. They loved the songs, their sense of mischief and especially the driving beat. The controversy came from adults. Only adults attacked Elvis or rock ’n’ roll. The controversy was only in their minds—on their lips. It was the begin- ning of what came to be known as “the generation gap,” a phrase coined by Columbia University president Grayson Kirk in April 1968, shortly before students seized control of his campus. There has never been an American generation that so identified with its music, regarded it as its own, the way the Americans who grew up in the 1950s and 1960s did. The music that started as a subversive movement took over the culture and became a huge, commercially dominant industry. The greatest of the many seismic shifts in the music industry is that young people became the target audience. In no previous generation had the main thrust of popular music been an attempt to appeal to people in their teens.

  • Porgy and Bess Composer: George Gershwin Section of the Work to Be
    Title: Porgy and Bess Composer: George Gershwin Section of the work to be studied: ‘Summertime’ Interpretation in performance 1: Leontyne Price, from 1:11 to 4:32, Porgy and Bess: High Performance, RCA Interpretation in performance 2: Billie Holiday, The Quintessential Billie Holiday, Vol. 2: 1936, Columbia, this recording is also available on a number of compilation CDs. Score: Summertime, single for voice and piano. Alfred Publishing. (AP.VS5985) The following notes are designed to inform discussion. They are not to be considered as representative of the VCAA or amuse. The notes are to be used as starting points. Paul Curtis 2009 Briefly: Gershwin completed the work in September 1935 following 20 months of work. The show opened on 30 September 1935 at Boston’s Colonial Theatre. The show opened in New York at the Alvin Theatre on 10 October. The show ran for only 124 shows at the Alvin. The critical reaction was mixed and the entire monetary investment was lost. Gershwin wrote the following defense of his work: It is true that I have written songs for Porgy and Bess. I am not ashamed at writing songs at any time so long as they are good songs. In Porgy and Bess I realized that I was writing an opera for the theatre and without songs it could be neither of the theatre nor entertaining from my viewpoint. But songs are entirely within the operatic tradition. Many of the most successful operas of the past have had songs….Of course, the songs in Porgy and Bess are only a part of the whole…I have used symphonic music to unify entire scenes.

Most everything contained will be multiple CD sets, DVDs, CD/DVD sets, books and the like. Of course, you can always look though our back issues to see what came out in 2017 (and prior years), but none of us would want to attempt to decide which CDs would be a fitting ad- dition to this guide. As with 2016, the year 2017 was a bit on the lean side as far as reviews go of box sets, books and DVDs - it appears tht the days of mass quantities of boxed sets are over - but we do have some to check out.

Bolig American Discography Project UC Santa Barbara Library © 2017 John R. Bolig. All rights reserved. ii The Victor Discography Series By John R. Bolig The advent of this online discography is a continuation of record descriptions that were compiled by me and published in book form by Allan Sutton, the publisher and owner of Mainspring Press. When undertaking our work, Allan and I were aware of the work started by Ted Fa- gan and Bill Moran, in which they intended to account for every recording made by the Victor Talking Machine Company. We decided to take on what we believed was a more practical approach, one that best met the needs of record collectors. Simply stat- ed, Fagan and Moran were describing recordings that were not necessarily published; I believed record collectors were interested in records that were actually available. We decided to account for records found in Victor catalogs, ones that were purchased and found in homes after 1901 as 78rpm discs, many of which have become highly sought- after collector’s items. The following Victor discographies by John R.
