  • Midnight Special Songlist
    west coast music Midnight Special Please find attached the Midnight Special song list for your review. SPECIAL DANCES for Weddings: Please note that we will need your special dance requests, (I.E. First Dance, Father/Daughter Dance, Mother/Son Dance etc) FOUR WEEKS in advance prior to your event so that we can confirm that the band will be able to perform the song(s) and that we are able to locate sheet music. In some cases where sheet music is not available or an arrangement for the full band is need- ed, this gives us the time needed to properly prepare the music and learn the material. Clients are not obligated to send in a list of general song requests. Many of our clients ask that the band just react to whatever their guests are responding to on the dance floor. Our clients that do provide us with song requests do so in varying degrees. Most clients give us a handful of songs they want played and avoided. Recently, we’ve noticed in increase in cli- ents customizing what the band plays and doesn’t play with very specific detail. If you de- sire the highest degree of control (allowing the band to only play within the margin of songs requested), we ask for a minimum of 100 requests. We want you to keep in mind that the band is quite good at reading the room and choosing songs that best connect with your guests. The more specific/selective you are, know that there is greater chance of losing certain song medleys, mashups, or newly released material the band has.

  • 265 Edward M. Christian*
    COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT ANALYSIS IN MUSIC: KATY PERRY A “DARK HORSE” CANDIDATE TO SPARK CHANGE? Edward M. Christian* ABSTRACT The music industry is at a crossroad. Initial copyright infringement judgments against artists like Katy Perry and Robin Thicke threaten millions of dollars in damages, with the songs at issue sharing only very basic musical similarities or sometimes no similarities at all other than the “feel” of the song. The Second Circuit’s “Lay Listener” test and the Ninth Circuit’s “Total Concept and Feel” test have emerged as the dominating analyses used to determine the similarity between songs, but each have their flaws. I present a new test—a test I call the “Holistic Sliding Scale” test—to better provide for commonsense solutions to these cases so that artists will more confidently be able to write songs stemming from their influences without fear of erroneous lawsuits, while simultaneously being able to ensure that their original works will be adequately protected from instances of true copying. * J.D. Candidate, Rutgers Law School, January 2021. I would like to thank my advisor, Professor John Kettle, for sparking my interest in intellectual property law and for his feedback and guidance while I wrote this Note, and my Senior Notes & Comments Editor, Ernesto Claeyssen, for his suggestions during the drafting process. I would also like to thank my parents and sister for their unending support in all of my endeavors, and my fiancée for her constant love, understanding, and encouragement while I juggled writing this Note, working full time, and attending night classes. 265 266 RUTGERS UNIVERSITY LAW REVIEW [Vol.

  • Inside the Cages of the Zoo
    The Library of America • Story of the Week From Shake It Up: Great American Writing on Rock and Pop from Elvis to Jay Z (Library of America, 2017), pages 151–65. Originally published in Trips: Rock Life in the Sixties (1973). Copyright © by Ellen Sander. ▼ Ellen Sander Ellen Sander (b. 1944) was The Saturday Review’s rock critic in the mid- to late sixties and also wrote on rock for Vogue, The Realist, Cavalier, The L.A. Free Press, the Sunday New York Times Arts & Leisure section, and many other venues. She is the author of Trips: Rock Life in the Sixties (1973), an important source for those seeking to understand the texture and allure of 1960s rock culture. A unique aspect of that culture was captured in Sander’s piece “The Case of the Cock- Sure Groupies” (1968), a remarkably clear- eyed and nonjudgmental account of one of rock’s less celebrated scenes. After her years of rock writing, Sander worked in various capacities in the software industry, from tech writing to computational linguistics. She then returned to her first love, poetry; most recently she served as the Poet Laure- ate of Belfast, Maine (2013–2014). Several collections of her rock journalism are available as Kindle ebooks. ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ Inside the Cages of the Zoo Some years later, a group called Led Zeppelin came to America to make it, taking a highly calculated risk. The group had been put together around Jimmy Page, who had a heavy personal following from his previous work with the Yardbirds, an immensely popular British group that generated a great deal of charisma in the States.

  • Introduction to Rock Music
    A Beginner’s Guide to Rock Music By Christian Dubeau For the teachers: The purpose of this document is to teach students some basics about well-known rock musicians and commonly used instruments in rock bands. The first slide serves to teach the students about the musical alphabet (a,b,c,d,e,f,g). This slide is not essential for the student’s understanding of the document as a whole, but I have included it in case there is interest. The next few slides each give a brief background about an individual musician or band. Before explaining the information on each slide, the instructor should play an excerpt of a song by the artist on that slide. Recordings of pieces by these artists can be easily found on www.youtube.com. Here are my suggestions for songs to play: 1). Michael Jackson: Beat It 2). Bob Dylan: Blowin in the Wind 3). The Beatles: Let It Be 4). Led Zeppelin: Stairway to Heaven The last few slides show a picture of and give a brief background on different instruments that are commonly used in rock bands. Again, the instructor should show the students what each instrument sounds like before explaining the details provided on the slides. Again, I have provided some suggestions for recording to play, all of which can be found on YouTube. In each case, only an excerpt needs to be played, as some of the recordings are quite long. 1). Guitar: The Star Spangled Banner (Jimi Hendrix version) 2). Bass: Money (by Pink Floyd)-the beginning of the song 3).

  • Led Zeppelin Ruling Is Already Affecting Copyright Litigation by Alexander Kaplan, Sandra Crawshaw-Sparks and Simona Weil (April 3, 2020)
    Led Zeppelin Ruling Is Already Affecting Copyright Litigation By Alexander Kaplan, Sandra Crawshaw-Sparks and Simona Weil (April 3, 2020) Based on the first two decisions applying the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit’s March 9 en banc decision in the Skidmore v. Led Zeppelin "Stairway to Heaven" case, the recent trajectory of the law governing music copyright infringement appears to have changed. It had been widely believed that the Ninth Circuit’s 2018 decision in the infamous "Blurred Lines" case, Williams v. Gaye,[1] set too liberal a standard for providing copyright protection to components of a musical composition and that the decision would lead to a stifling of creativity and an increase in copyright infringement lawsuits. Alexander Kaplan More specifically, there had been concern that in affirming the jury’s verdict finding infringement in Williams, the Ninth Circuit condoned granting copyright protection to building blocks of music over which no artist should hold a monopoly. A strongly worded dissent warned that the majority opinion “establishes a dangerous precedent that strikes a devastating blow to future musicians and composers everywhere.”[2] A fair reading of the Ninth Circuit’s en banc Skidmore v. Led Zeppelin decision, which, it should be noted, did not face the procedural roadblocks to an analysis of the protectability of the music that the Williams panel Sandra Crawshaw- did,[3] suggested that the court swung the pendulum toward more Sparks circumspect protection of short musical phrases and compositional elements found in popular music, and the selection and arrangement of those individual, unprotectable components.
