A Conversation with Vassar Clements by Frank Goodman (Puremusic.Com, 8/2004)
A Conversation with Vassar Clements by Frank Goodman (Puremusic.com, 8/2004) Perhaps like many who will enjoy the interview that follows, among my first recollections of Vassar’s playing is the 1972 Nitty Gritty Dirt Band recording Will the Circle Be Unbroken. As long ago as that seems (and is), he’d already been at it for over twenty years! In 1949, although only 14 years old and still in school, he began playing with Bill Monroe, the father of bluegrass. Aside from a few years off early on to check out some other things, Vassar’s been playing music professionally ever since. He’s recognized as the most genre-bending fiddler ever. “The Father of Hillbilly Jazz” is a handle that comes from several CDs he cut at that crossroads, but you can hear jazz and blues in any of the playing he’s done. He grew up listening to big band and Dixieland, and still listens to a lot of it today. Vassar says that many of the tunes he writes or passages he’ll fly into in a solo come from half remembered horn lines deep in his musical memory. Between his beginnings with Bill Monroe and the Circle album, Clements did many years with Jim and Jesse and then years with the late and much loved John Hartford, a lifelong friend who gave him the legendary fiddle he plays today. Circle turned a whole generation of hippies and acoustic music fans on to his music, and the children of that generation are following him today, as his popularity continues to recycle.

Andy Arleo Université De Nantes (CRINI)
LAURA NYRO’S ELI AND THE THIRTEENTH CONFESSION: TRANSCENDING THE DICHOTOMIES OF THE WOODSTOCK YEARS Andy Arleo Université de Nantes (CRINI) As Wavy Gravy says, if you can remember the sixties, you weren't really there (Van Ronk 141) Introduction1 As a member of the so-called Woodstock Generation, I am aware of the potential pitfalls of writing about this period. As Dave Van Ronk points out in his quote from Merry Prankster Wavy Gravy (Hugh Romney), memories of those times tend to be hazy. On the other hand, research on memory has shown that there is a “reminiscence bump,” that is “people tend to remember disproportionately more events from the period between their adolescence and early adulthood” (Foster 64). In any case, it is clear that memory, whether it is individual and collective, reconstructs past experience, and that my own experience of the era has inevitably flavored the content of this article, making it impossible to aspire completely to the traditional ideals of scholarly distance and detachment. Future generations of cultural analysts will no doubt reassess the Woodstock Years through different lenses. The name “Laura Nyro” may not ring a bell for many readers, as it did not for many of my students, colleagues and friends whom I have informally surveyed. This is understandable since, unlike other singer-songwriter icons of the period (e.g., Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, James Taylor), Nyro was never really in the mainstream, although her songs have often been covered by a broad spectrum of singers and bands in a remarkable variety of musical styles, sometimes achieving a fair amount of commercial success.

Dan Hicks’ Caucasian Hip-Hop for Hicksters Published February 19, 2015 | Copyright @2015 Straight Ahead Media
Dan Hicks’ Caucasian Hip-Hop For Hicksters Published February 19, 2015 | Copyright @2015 Straight Ahead Media Author: Steve Roby Showdate : Feb. 18, 2015 Performance Venue : Yoshi’s Oakland Bay Area legend Dan Hicks performed to a sold-out crowd at Yoshi’s on Wednesday. The audience was made up of his loyal fans (Hicksters) who probably first heard his music on KSAN, Jive 95, back in 1969. At age 11, Hicks started out as a drummer, and was heavily influenced by jazz and Dixieland music, often playing dances at the VFW. During the folk revival of the ‘60s, he picked up a guitar, and would go to hootenannies while attending San Francisco State. Hicks began writing songs, an eclectic mix of Western swing, folk, jazz, and blues, and eventually formed Dan Hicks and his Hot Licks. His offbeat humor filtered its way into his stage act. Today, with tongue firmly planted in cheek, Hicks sums up his special genre as “Caucasian hip-hop.” Over four decades later, Hicks still delivers a unique performance, and Wednesday’s show was jammed with many great moments. One of the evenings highlights was the classic “I Scare Myself,” which Hicks is still unclear if it’s a love song when he wrote it back in 1969. “I was either in love, or I’d just eaten a big hashish brownie,” recalled Hicks. Adding to the song’s paranoia theme, back-up singers Daria and Roberta Donnay dawned dark shades while Benito Cortez played a chilling violin solo complete with creepy horror movie sound effects.

It was the key to distributing the Grande postcards on the street and in schools. Volunteers, mostly high-school-aged kids, would get a stack of cards to pass out, plus a free pass to the Grande for themselves. Russ Gibb, who ran the Grande Ballroom, says that this was the ticket, so to speak, to bring in the crowds. While posters in Detroit did not have the effect that posters in San Francisco had, and handbills were only somewhat better, the cards turned out to actually work best. These cards are quite rare.

Rock & Keyser Roll Final 3.13.21
ROCK and KEYSER ROLL Music In My Life My Life In Music Dedicated to all the venues, bookers, house and stage managers, sound and lighting techs, promoters, publicists, photographers and videographers and roadies who have supported me and the bands I have represented over the past four plus decades. It is an honor and a privilege to work with so many highly talented musicians. I am filled with gratitude for the road I have traveled, and look forward to many more years of helping to bring live music to the world! Cover photo J.C. Juanis Cover lettering Mike Dolgushkin © 2021 Music has always been my passion. As a young guy I remember riding the #37 bus downtown to stop at the record store to pick up the latest albums. From my hometown of Baltimore I listened to WCAO radio Top 40 hits, and watched The Buddy Deane Dance Party every day after school. My early musical heroes were Dion, Paul Anka, Neil Sedaka, Little Eva, Ray Charles, Chubby Checker, Gene Pitney, Roy Orbison, The Four Tops and, Stevie Wonder…. My parents were also music fans. Here are few photos from back in their day…. Debbie Reynolds ? My mom My dad (dark suit) watching Eddie Fisher at Grossinger’s Resort in the Catskills circa 1958 After dinner with Harpo Marx and his wife at their Hollywood home, Harpo serenaded circa 1963 My first foray into the music world happened on my last day of 4th grade at Liberty School #64. Dr. Carlin, the music teacher, came into our classroom. He told us that next year, in 5th grade, we could be in the school orchestra.

Appreciation of Popular Music 1/2
FREEHOLD REGIONAL HIGH SCHOOL DISTRICT OFFICE OF CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTION MUSIC DEPARTMENT APPRECIATION OF POPULAR MUSIC 1/2 Grade Level: 10-12 Credits: 2.5 each section BOARD OF EDUCATION ADOPTION DATE: AUGUST 30, 2010 SUPPORTING RESOURCES AVAILABLE IN DISTRICT RESOURCE SHARING APPENDIX A: ACCOMMODATIONS AND MODIFICATIONS APPENDIX B: ASSESSMENT EVIDENCE APPENDIX C: INTERDISCIPLINARY CONNECTIONS Course Philosophy “Musical training is a more potent instrument than any other, because rhythm, harmony, and melody find their way into the inward place of our soul, on which they mightily fasten, imparting grace, and making the soul of him who is educated graceful.” - Plato We believe our music curriculum should provide quality experiences that are musically meaningful to the education of all our students. It should help them discover, understand and enjoy music as an art form, an intellectual endeavor, a medium of self-expression, and a means of social growth. Music is considered basic to the total educational program. To each new generation this portion of our heritage is a source of inspiration, enjoyment, and knowledge which helps to shape a way of life. Our music curriculum enriches and maintains this life and draws on our nation and the world for its ever- expanding course content, taking the student beyond the realm of the ordinary, everyday experience. Music is an art that expresses emotion, indicates mood, and helps students to respond to their environment. It develops the student’s character through its emphasis on responsibility, self-discipline, leadership, concentration, and respect for and awareness of the contributions of others. Music contains technical, psychological, artistic, and academic concepts.

Camp Winnarainbow Provides a Here's Grace's Full Description: Counselor at the Camp
Teaching, Entertaining, Educating and Empowering Children through the Arts Camp nurtures and develops a com- munity that reflects the world in which children will grow up. While campers benefit from a wide variety of fun and stimulating activities – trapeze, drama, nature hikes, hip-hop dance, and po- etry just to name a few -- they also gain an appreciation for differences as they live among children who come from all kinds of backgrounds. It is the Camp’s conviction that they can then become the catalysts for social change and have a positive effect on the future. “This place brings out your talent, it makes better people," says one young camp counselor.
