Doctoral Dissertations. 1946. https://opencommons.uconn.edu/dissertations/1946 Fréhel and Bessie Smith: A Cross-Cultural Study of the French Realist Singer and the African American Classic Blues Singer Tiffany Renée Jackson, DMA University of Connecticut, 2018 ABSTRACT In this dissertation I explore parallels between the lives and careers of the chan- son réaliste singer Fréhel (1891-1951), born Marguerite Boulc’h, and the classic blues singer Bessie Smith (1894-1937), and between the genres in which they worked. Both were tragic figures, whose struggles with love, abuse, and abandonment culminated in untimely ends that nevertheless did not overshadow their historical relevance. Drawing on literature in cultural studies and sociology that deals with feminism, race, and class, I compare the the two women’s formative environments and their subsequent biographi- cal histories, their career trajectories, the societal hierarchies from which they emerged, and, finally, their significance for developments in women’s autonomy in wider society. Chanson réaliste (realist song) was a French popular song category developed in the Parisian cabaret of the1880s and which attained its peak of wide dissemination and popularity from the 1920s through the 1940s. -

THE GOD GROOVE by DAVID RITZ
For immediate release Contact: Yona Deshommes Associate Director of Publicity [email protected] (212) 698-7566 THE GOD GROOVE By DAVID RITZ David Ritz has written over 50 books. Ritz’s job as a ghostwriter molded his prime directive into becoming the voice of who he was writing about, rejecting the temptation to implant his/her own point of view into the story. So, you’ve never really seen a clear portrait of the man himself until The God Groove, his first memoir. Seeking an escape from death by boredom in advertising, Ritz began his 40-plus year journey as a writer and ghostwriter with a simple but seemingly impossibly goal: to be Ray Charles’ first biographer. What began with a 32-year-old husband and father of two’s plane ride from Dallas to Los Angeles to bang on Ray’s front door began an odyssey from which he never truly returned as the same man. The God Groove places Ritz in rooms with artists, musicians and academics who have shaped the last 50 years in American culture: the late Aretha Franklin, Blues legend Etta James, and the tortured genius of Marvin Gaye, for whom he writes the titles to the now- classic “Sexual Healing”, the first stone on the path to Ritz becoming a songwriter in his own right. For immediate release Contact: Yona Deshommes Associate Director of Publicity [email protected] (212) 698-7566 Ritz documents the thoughts and feelings of late bluesman B.B.

Constructing Robert Johnson Sean Lorre
Constructing Robert Johnson Sean Lorre I don’t think I’d even heard of Robert Johnson when I first found [King of the Delta Blues Singers (1961)]; it was probably fresh out. I was around fifteen or sixteen, and it came as something of a shock to me that there could be anything that powerful... It was almost as if he felt things so acutely that he found it almost unbearable…. At first it was almost too painful, but then after about six months I started listening, and then I didn't listen to anything else. Up until the time I was 25, if you didn't know who Robert Johnson was I wouldn't talk to you. -Eric Clapton1 I was thirteen years old when Woodstock-era nostalgia swept through my small suburban world in the early 1990s. By that time, I had amassed a large collection of classic rock LPs including my personal favorites, Cream’s Greatest Hits and Led Zeppelin IV. In the year or so following, on the recommendations of my local record store clerks and friends in the know, I picked up a copy of the brand new Robert Johnson: The Complete Recordings (1990). These most trusted of advisors let it be known that if I liked Eric Clapton, then I would love Johnson, because he was “the real deal,” “where rock n’ roll came from.” When I brought the boxed set home – cassettes, mind you, not CDs – I poured over the liner notes before popping in the tapes. Following an 8,000-word essay about the greatness of Robert Johnson divided into sections entitled “The Man” and “The Music,” came the testimonial of my idol, Clapton himself, who 1 The Complete Recordings 1990, 22 128 Musicological Explorations professed his love for Johnson in no uncertain terms, stating “I have never found anything more deeply soulful than Robert Johnson. -
A Band Together. but Who Knew We'd Find As Durable an Application Of
o R M D EVERY MUSICIAN KNOWS IT’s THE RHYTHM SECTION THAT HOLDS a band together. But who knew we’d find as durable an application of that maxim as the one exemplified by the history of Fleetwood Mac? & Over the last thirty years, Fleetwood Mac has comprised fifteen musicians shuffled through six major lineups, resulting in endless tin- kerings with tone and genre. Yet the two members to survive it all rarely write tunes and never front the recordings. They’re the beat- keepers - drummer Mick Fleetwood and bassist John Me Vie. The fact that a rhythm section could sustain a band through thirty years seems all the more amazing considering the traumatic histories of the band’s shifting array o f stage-front stars. Together, their personal lives have given rock one of its most elaborate and juicy plotlines. (L Religious conversions, spells o f madness, “incestuous” liaisons within the band, drug freak-outs, alleged brainwashings, imperson- Mick ^ stevie ations, everything short of murder have spun Nicks, John McVie, Christine McVie, Lindsey Fleetwood Mac’s legacy into a story worthy of Buckingham (from left) Scheherazade. & Musically the band has endured just as many twists, moving from blues to rockabilly to laid-back California folk rock - finally to bloom into purveyors of some of the most popular and endur- ing music of the Seventies. (L It all began humbly enough. In 1967, the B Y J I M FÄRBER The band in '69: Peter original foursome convened as arch Fame entrant, Santana). If that wasn’t enough, Rose also saw the Green, Fleetwood, Jeremy devotees of the blues, arriving in the band adding nineteen-year-old Danny Kirwan (who’d played in Spencer, Danny Kirwan, second wave of U.K.
