  • Beatles History – Part One: 1956–1964
    BEATLES HISTORY – PART ONE: 1956–1964 January 1956–June 1957: The ‘Skiffle Craze’ In January 1956, Lonnie Donegan’s recording of “Rock Island Line” stormed into the British hit parade and started what would become known as the ‘skiffle craze’ in Great Britain (vgl. McDevitt 1997: 3). Skiffle was originally an amateur jazz style comprising elements of blues, gospel, and work songs. The instrumentation resembled New Or- leans street bands called ‘spasms,’ which relied on home-made instru- ments. Before skiffle was first professionally recorded by American jazz musicians in the 1920s and 1930s, it had been performed at ‘rent parties’ in North American cities like Chicago and Kansas City. Many African- American migrant workers organized rent parties in order to raise money for their monthly payments (vgl. Garry 1997: 87). Skiffle provided the musical entertainment at these parties, as everybody was able to partici- pate in the band, which usually consisted of home-made acoustic guitars or a piano backed by a rhythm section of household instruments, such as a washboard, a washtub bass, and a jug (vgl. McDevitt 1997:16). Jazz trumpeter and guitarist Ken Colyer pioneered the skiffle scene in Great Britain. In 1949, he formed the Crane River Jazz Band in Cran- ford, Middlesex, together with Ben Marshall (guitar), Pat Hawes (wash- board), and Julian Davies (bass). Their repertoire included skiffle songs “to illustrate aspects of the roots of jazz and to add variety to a pro- gramme” (Dewe 1998: 4). After leaving the group in 1951, Colyer mi- grated to the United States to work with jazz musicians in New Orleans.

  • The Perth Sound in the 1960S—
    (This is a combined version of two articles: ‘‘Do You Want To Know A Secret?’: Popular Music in Perth in the Early 1960s’ online in Illumina: An Academic Journal for Performance, Visual Arts, Communication & Interactive Multimedia, 2007, available at: http://illumina.scca.ecu.edu.au/data/tmp/stratton%20j%20%20illumina%20p roof%20final.pdf and ‘Brian Poole and the Tremeloes or the Yardbirds: Comparing Popular Music in Perth and Adelaide in the Early 1960s’ in Perfect Beat: The Pacific Journal for Research into Contemporary Music and Popular Culture, vol 9, no 1, 2008, pp. 60-77). Brian Poole and the Tremeloes or the Yardbirds: Comparing Popular Music in Perth and Adelaide in the Early 1960s In this article I want to think about the differences in the popular music preferred in Perth and Adelaide in the early 1960s—that is, the years before and after the Beatles’ tour of Australia and New Zealand, in June 1964. The Beatles played in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Adelaide but not in Perth. In spite of this, the Beatles’ songs were just as popular in Perth as in the other major cities. Through late 1963 and 1964 ‘I Want to Hold Your Hand,’ ‘I Saw Her Standing There,’ ‘Roll Over Beethoven’ and the ‘All My Loving’ EP all reached the number one position in the Perth chart as they did nationally.1 In this article, though, I am not so much interested in the Beatles per se but rather in their indexical signalling of a transformation in popular music tastes. As Lawrence Zion writes in an important and surprisingly neglected article on ‘The impact of the Beatles on pop music in Australia: 1963-1966:’ ‘For young Australians in the early 1960s America was the icon of pop music and fashion.’2 One of the reasons Zion gives for this is the series of Big Shows put on by American entrepreneur Lee Gordon through the second half of the 1950s.

  • The British Invasion: Finding Traction in America by Piacentino Vona A
    The British Invasion: Finding Traction in America by Piacentino Vona A thesis presented to the University Of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Arts in History Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2018 © Piacentino Vona 2018 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract As a period of American History, the 1960s has provided historians and academics with a wealth of material for research and scholarship. Presidents John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson and Richard Nixon, the Vietnam War, the hippie era, and the Civil Rights Movement, among other topics have received thorough historical discussion and debate. Music was another key aspect in understanding the social history of the 1960s. But unlike the people and events mentioned above, historians have devoted less attention to music in the historical landscape. The British Invasion was one such key event that impacted America in the 1960s. Bands such as the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and the Who found their way into the United States and majorly impacted American society. Using secondary sources, newspaper articles, interviews and documentaries on these bands, this thesis explores the British Invasion and its influence in the context of 1960s America. This thesis explores multiple bands that came in the initial wave. It follows these bands from 1964-1969, and argues that the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and the Who shared common multiple factors that allowed them to attain the traction to succeed and to maintain that success in the United States.

  • THE BEATLES IMAGE: MASS MARKETING 1960S BRITISH and AMERICAN MUSIC and CULTURE, OR BEING a SHORT THESIS on the DUBIOUS PACKAGE of the BEATLES
    THE BEATLES IMAGE: MASS MARKETING 1960s BRITISH AND AMERICAN MUSIC AND CULTURE, OR BEING A SHORT THESIS ON THE DUBIOUS PACKAGE OF THE BEATLES by Richard D Driver, Bachelor of Arts A Thesis In HISTORY Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Texas Tech University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS Approved Aliza S Wong Randy McBee John Borrelli Dean of the Graduate School May, 2007 Copyright 2007, Richard Driver Texas Tech University, Richard D Driver, May 2007 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This work could not have been possible without the encouragement and guidance of a number of individuals, as well as countless persons who pulled books, worked through interlibrary loans, and simply listened to me talk about it. Without the guidance, tolerance, insight, time, and encouragement of my committee, Aliza S Wong and Randy McBee, this thesis would have remained nothing more than a passing thought. Aliza, more than any other professor has been there for me since this project truly began over two years ago. It was her initial push for me to write about something I loved that drove me to attend Graduate school and then build upon what I had done previously with The Beatles “image.” Dr. McBee provided excellent guidance into understanding many of the post-war American facets of this work, not simply those related to The Beatles or music in general. Additional thanks are reserved for Dr. Julie Willett for her class on sexuality and gender where new methods and modes of historical thought were founded in this work. Finally, this thesis would have been impossible had I not been accepted into and granted a teaching position in the History Department at Texas Tech University, and it is to the entire department that I owe my greatest thanks.

  • Group 5: American Rock and Roll Imagine Your Group Is Helping One of the Beatles Write His Autobiography. You Will Work in Small
    Group 5: American Rock and Roll Imagine your group is helping one of the Beatles write his autobiography. You will work in small groups and use your knowledge of history to help your Beatle enrich his book. Here are the guidelines: • Below you will see your assigned historical term. Each group has a different term from a different period in their subject’s life. • You also have received sources related to that term. • Use this information to write a paragraph of 3-5 sentences for your Beatle’s autobiography. • Your sentences should connect his life to the term and use the first person. For example, “I remember watching the ships come in to the Liverpool docks.” • Write your paragraph on the board or on a piece of paper large enough for the whole class to read. • Share it with the class. • As the other groups share their paragraphs, copy the story in your “Autobiography of a Beatle” handout. Term: Cunard Yanks The “Cunard Yanks” were merchant seamen who traveled between New York City and Liverpool, bringing American fashion and music to Liverpool. (Cunard is a British-American shipping company that still operates today.) Some claim the Beatles got their American Rock and Roll records from these merchants before this music was discovered by the rest of Great Britain. The Beatles were heavily influenced by new sounds from American musicians such as Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, and Little Richard. The Cunard Yanks are a symbol of cultural diffusion.

    Playlist Sunday Sept. 2nd SMELLS LIKE THE BEATLES HEAR WHAT JOHN, PAUL, GEORGE & RINGO CREATED!!! Three hours of The BEATLES and the GROUPS they spawned. * * * * Featuring songs from the BEST of the British Invasion GROUPS from the 60’s & Power Pop BANDS from the 70’s…and a few cool things in-between. We’ll spin a Beatles song followed by a “Beatlesque” song from another group below…over and over and over for three FAB hours! HOUR I The Beatles - Love Me Do – Please Please Me (McCartney-Lennon) Lead vocal: John and Paul The Beatles’ first single release for EMI’s Parlophone label. Released October 5, 1962, it reached #17 on the British charts. Principally written by Paul McCartney in 1958 and 1959. Recorded with three different drummers: Pete Best (June 6, 1962, EMI audition), Ringo Starr (September 4, 1962), and Andy White (September 11, 1962 with Ringo playing tambourine). The 45 rpm single lists the songwriters as Lennon-McCartney. One of several Beatles songs Paul McCartney owns with Yoko Ono. Starting with the songs recorded for their debut album on February 11, 1963, Lennon and McCartney’s output was attached to their Northern Songs publishing company. Because their first single was released before John and Paul had contracted with a music publisher, EMI assigned it to their own, a company called Ardmore and Beechwood, which took the two songs “Love Me Do” and “P.S. I Love You.” Decades later McCartney and Ono were able to purchase the songs for their respective companies, MPL Communications and Lenono Music.

  • Gerry and the Pacemakers
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE DECEMBER 1, 2009 RIVER ROCK CASINO RESORT PRESENTS GERRY AND THE PACEMAKERS LIVE AT THE RIVER ROCK SHOW THEATRE FRIDAY, MAY 28 Richmond, BC – It was in 1962 when Gerry and the Pacemakers were signed by manager Brian Epstein as his second group after The Beatles and made their name with ballads such as “Ferry Cross the Mersey” and “Don't Let the Sun Catch You Crying.” But it was a Rodgers & Hammerstein song, '”You'll Never Walk Alone” which had enthralled Gerry Marsden since he saw the film, Carousel in his youth that was their biggest hit. For three decades, it has remained the anthem of the crowds at Liverpool Football Club and has been played before kick-off every Saturday inscribed on the club gates and always the most popular concert request. Marsden formed the group in the late ‘50s featuring himself on guitar and lead vocals, his brother Fred on drums, Les Chadwick on bass and Arthur Mack on piano who was replaced by Les McGuire in 1961. They worked the same Liverpool/Hamburg circuit as The Beatles and ran neck and neck with their rivals in local popularity. In 1963, they were signed by Epstein and began recording for the EMI/Columbia label under the direction of producer George Martin. Their first single was “How Do You Do It?” … a Mitch Murray tune that reached #1 on the charts. Similar to The Beatles, they starred in their own film, Ferry Cross the Mersey in 1965 for which Marsden wrote most of the soundtrack.
