I’m still a fan of the group today.

  • Kosher Country: Success and Survival on Nashville's Music Row V
    Kosher Country: Success and Survival on Nashville's Music Row V Stacy Harris uring the last few years, Nashville's country music in- dustry has been mourning a larger number of its citizens Dthan usual. These losses included two, Norma Gerson ("makeup artist to the stars") and Rainbow Room owner/- erstwhile "Hee Haw" bit-player David "Skull" Schulman ("the mayor of Printers' Alley"), that underscore the little-known range and diversity of roles Jews have played in Nashville and country- music history. According to Karen B. Fine, Nashville's Jewish music indus- try population numbers "about 60 or 70."1 Few would characterize this minority as a vocal one. Indeed, when Life staff writer Charles Hirshberg wrote about the relationship between Jews and country music in the Forward, he titled the article "Nashville's Jewish Newcomers Assert Themselves (Softly)."2 Likening the reluctance of Jewish country-music industry participants to medieval Marranos who, Hirshberg believed, kept "their Jewishness private to protect their livelihoods," Hirshberg's observations of five years ago seem equally as dire in 1999.3 There would well be a justification for this. Country music's heritage is rooted in traditions of a Protestant-Christian America. Six years ago, this author wrote, "Most country artists have re- corded at least one album of sacred songs; indeed it is almost expected."4 112 SOUTHERN JEWISH HISTORY Nonetheless change may be imminent. With many more new artists and a younger listener base, this expectation no longer exists. While it still looks good for a country singer to have a press kit containing biographical information noting that the subject's earliest memories are of "hymns or more fervent gospel songs" and of his/her own performances in church, whether true or not, such references are increasingly less mandatory.

  • CHAPTER 11 Gospel Versus Profane Music in Slovakia1
    CHAPTER 11 Gospel versus profane music in Slovakia1 Yvetta Kajanová Abstract This study provides a historical perspective on the establishment of church music as a market segment. The political changes after 1989 meant that sacred music became a regular part of Central Europe culture, and the previously homogenous market became divided between secular and sacred segments. 11Due to the communist ideology and strong atheist propaganda in the former communist countries of Central Europe, the separation processes followed a different path than in the western world. The research has shown that, during the communist regime, illegal recording studios and secretive distribution of sacred music were the basis for the later character of music market. Up to the present time, the music industry still maintains the secular‐sacred segmentation even though the two music streams are tending towards convergence. The author uses historical, analytical, and statistical methods to explain the particular case of the winners of the 2009 Eurovision Song Contest in Slovakia, in which both gospel and profane music singers participated and where the gospel music supporters outvoted the profane audience. From numerous historical facts obtained during a 2005–2008 study of oral tradition, those relevant for the formation of the Slovak audience, its self‐confidence, and transformation have been selected to support this paper. 1. Beginnings Contrary to the traditional idea of cultural identity, which spoke of a solid and fixed self, umbilically related to a territory and collective history, nowadays we must take in account the volatility of these identities. Crane’s perspective on this is of course of the utmost importance (2002).

  • HARD, HARD RELIGION: FAITH and CLASS in the NEW SOUTH By
    HARD, HARD RELIGION: FAITH AND CLASS IN THE NEW SOUTH by JOHN HERBERT HAYES (Under the Direction of KATHLEEN CLARK) ABSTRACT “Hard, Hard Religion: Faith and Class in the New South” argues that a fervent people’s religious culture permeated the rural New South, and was a central element in the persona and music of an iconic figure from that world, Johnny Cash. A distinct religious sensibility—a regional “popular religion,” or what one white farm laborer called “hard, hard religion”—constituted a central medium through which the rural poor, white and black, articulated and engaged with the hard everyday forces in their lives in the New South: confinement, marginality, injustice, and ridicule. This sensibility was not a static “old time religion,” an “otherworldly” compensation, or a psychological coping mechanism. Indeed, through the mediated forms of “folk” music and early “hillbilly” and “race” records, this popular religion has recurrently attracted outsiders for its complex engagement with modernity and its discontents, even though the dominant categories of historical analysis, those that conceptualize southern power relations and religion solely through the lens of race, have obscured it. I focus in on the persona and music of Johnny Cash, demonstrating that a principal aspect of his durable popular appeal was his creative engagement with the “hard, hard religion” he absorbed in his youth, in a rural community in Arkansas in the 1930s and ‘40s. In wrestling with the meaning of his inherited faith, Cash sang basic themes from the older culture—an abiding sense of evil and of perpetual struggle against darkness, a via negativa as the path to God, a feeling of mystery and the stark limit in life, and a democratic spirit of favoritism for the lowly—into American popular culture from the 1960s until his death in 2003.
