Through an exploration of voice, lyricism, kinesthetic performance, instrumentality and visual aesthetics, this course examines the “world wide underground” of black women’s sonic cultures, and it re-interrogates pop music subculture theories through the intersecting prisms of race, gender, class and sexuality. It considers the ways that black women musicians operate as socio- political and cultural intellectuals, and it reads their work as historically-situated cultural texts that resonate in multiple contexts. Throughout the semester, we will explore the ways in which black women culture workers have stylized and innovated disruptive and iconic performance practices within the context of American popular music culture, from the postbellum era through the present day. Part of the aim of this course is to trace the tensions between the enormous influence and ubiquity of the black female singing voice in globalized popular cultures and the ways in which a range of entertainers have nonetheless negotiated eccentric and “obscure” musical gestures that signaled and affirmed the existence of resistant musical aesthetics in the face of panopticism.

Bear Family Records Sales Sheet
PRODUCT INFO (CD) August 7, 2020 Artist Ruth Brown Title Juke Box Pearls Mama, He Treats Your Daughter Mean Label Bear Family Productions Catalog no. BCD17542 EAN-Code 5397102175428 Price code: AH Format CD (Digipak) with 36-page booklet Genre Rock 'n' Roll, R & B No. of tracks 31 approx. 78:00 Min. Release date August 7, 2020 INFO: • She is not only the legendary Queen of Rhythm & Blues, she also had a baby they called Rock 'n' Roll! Her fantastic voice is genre-spanning - here is the proof! • Selected songs from Ruth Brown's career first released between 1953 and 1962 are uniquely compiled here. • Included are the rare re-recordings of her classics 5-10-15 Hours and Mama, He Treats Your Daughter Mean, which she recorded in 1958. • In addition to rock songs and teenage ballads, you can also hear mambo, gospel and soul roots. • Three recordings for the US Philips label in the early 1960s can be considered rarities: Walk With Me, Lord, Jim Dandy and Sea Of Love. • As a bonus, there are her live recordings from the 'Rhythm And Blues Revue', never before released on CD! • Of course her juke box classics are also included: This Little Girl's Gone Rockin'! • The 36-page color booklet includes the biography written by Chicago music journalist Bill Dahl, rare photos, illustrations and discographic information. The Queen of Rhythm and Blues This compilation of 31 songs impressively shows the extremely interesting career of Ruth Brown. Starting in the early 1950s, when she sang her way to the top of the R&B charts with her unique voice, which already had a high recognition value at that time, and thus created a solid financial basis for her label Atlantic Records, through the time in the mid 1950s, when she easily made the transition from her rather jazzy style of rhythm and blues to rock 'n' roll and teenage ballads and to early soul sounds, gospel and twist in the early '60s.
