B. B. King (1925-2015) Homenatge Al Rei Del Blues Maig 2015 B. B. King (1925-2015) Homenatge al Rei del Blues Maig 2015 ■ INTRODUCCIÓN Riley B. King o Riley Ben King (Itta Bena, Misisipi, 16 de septiembre de 1925-Las Vegas, Nevada, 14 de mayo de 2015), más conocido como B.B. King, fue un músico, cantante y compositor estadounidense. Es ampliamente considerado uno de los músicos de blues más influyentes de todos los tiempos, ganando el apodo de «el Rey del Blues» y el renombre de «uno de los tres reyes (kings) de la guitarra blues» junto a Albert King y Freddie King. Según Edward M. Komara, King «introdujo un sofisticado estilo de solos basados en fluidas cuerdas [de guitarra] dobladas y brillantes vibratos que influirían prácticamente a todos los guitarristas de blues eléctrico que le siguieron». Los Beatles le mencionaron en la canción «Dig It» (1970). Además, la revista Rolling Stone lo situó en el puesto seis de la lista de los 100 mejores guitarristas de todos los tiempos y figura en el puesto 17 de la lista «Top 50 Guitarists of All Time» elaborada por Gibson. King fue introducido en el Salón de la Fama del Rock and Roll en 1987. Con los años, King desarrolló un estilo de guitarra identificable de su obra musical, con elementos prestados de Blind Lemon Jefferson, T-Bone Walker y otros y la fusión de géneros musicales como el blues, el jazz, el swing y el pop. Su guitarra eléctrica Gibson ES-335, apodada «Lucille», también da nombre a una línea de guitarras creada por la compañía en 1980. King es también reconocido por su prolífico directo, con un promedio de 250 ó 300 conciertos anuales durante la década de 1970.

  • Eric Clapton
    ERIC CLAPTON BIOGRAFIA Eric Patrick Clapton nasceu em 30/03/1945 em Ripley, Inglaterra. Ganhou a sua primeira guitarra aos 13 anos e se interessou pelo Blues americano de artistas como Robert Johnson e Muddy Waters. Apelidado de Slowhand, é considerado um dos melhores guitarristas do mundo. O reconhecimento de Clapton só começou quando entrou no “Yardbirds”, banda inglesa de grande influência que teve o mérito de reunir três dos maiores guitarristas de todos os tempos em sua formação: Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck e Jimmy Page. Apesar do sucesso que o grupo fazia, Clapton não admitia abandonar o Blues e, em sua opinião, o Yardbirds estava seguindo uma direção muito pop. Sai do grupo em 1965, quando John Mayall o convida a juntar-se à sua banda, os “Blues Breakers”. Gravam o álbum “Blues Breakers with Eric Clapton”, mas o relacionamento com Mayall não era dos melhores e Clapton deixa o grupo pouco tempo depois. Em 1966, forma os “Cream” com o baixista Jack Bruce e o baterista Ginger Baker. Com a gravação de 4 álbuns (“Fresh Cream”, “Disraeli Gears”, “Wheels Of Fire” e “Goodbye”) e muitos shows em terras norte americanas, os Cream atingiram enorme sucesso e Eric Clapton já era tido como um dos melhores guitarristas da história. A banda separa-se no fim de 1968 devido ao distanciamento entre os membros. Neste mesmo ano, Clapton a convite de seu amigo George Harisson, toca na faixa “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” do White Album dos Beatles. Forma os “Blind Faith” em 1969 com Steve Winwood, Ginger Baker e Rick Grech, que durou por pouco tempo, lançando apenas um album.

  • The Influence of Louis Armstrong on the Harlem Renaissance 1923-1930
    ABSTRACT HUMANITIES DECUIR, MICHAEL B.A. SOUTHERN UNIVERSITY AT NEW ORLEANS, 1987 M.A. THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY, 1989 THE INFLUENCE OF LOUIS ARMSTRONG ON THE HARLEM RENAISSANCE 1923–1930 Committee Chair: Timothy Askew, Ph.D. Dissertation dated August 2018 This research explores Louis Armstrong’s artistic choices and their impact directly and indirectly on the African-American literary, visual and performing arts between 1923 and 1930 during the period known as the Harlem Renaissance. This research uses analyses of musical transcriptions and examples of the period’s literary and visual arts to verify the significance of Armstrong’s influence(s). This research also analyzes the early nineteenth century West-African musical practices evident in Congo Square that were present in the traditional jazz and cultural behaviors that Armstrong heard and experienced growing up in New Orleans. Additionally, through a discourse analysis approach, this research examines the impact of Armstrong’s art on the philosophical debate regarding the purpose of the period’s art. Specifically, W.E.B. Du i Bois’s desire for the period’s art to be used as propaganda and Alain Locke’s admonitions that period African-American artists not produce works with the plight of blacks in America as the sole theme. ii THE INFLUENCE OF LOUIS ARMSTRONG ON THE HARLEM RENAISSANCE 1923–1930 A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF CLARK ATLANTA UNIVERSITY IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF ARTS IN HUMANITIES BY MICHAEL DECUIR DEPARTMENT OF HUMANITIES ATLANTA, GEORGIA AUGUST 2018 © 2018 MICHAEL DECUIR All Rights Reserved ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My greatest debt of gratitude goes to my first music teacher, my mother Laura.
