  • The Most Admired* What Do Clint Eastwood, Jimmy
    The Most Admired* What do Clint Eastwood, Jimmy Carter, and Warren Buffett have in common? No, this isn’t a setup for a pop culture joke, but rather a partial list of the most admired Americans over age 75. Provided with the names of 23 major personalities in this age bracket and asked to select the two they most admire, Americans compile a list that is at once diverse and homogenous; topping the list are two actors, two former presidents, a man of the cloth, and a financial wizard turned philanthropist. All remarkably accomplished, but all male. Clint Eastwood ranks highest overall, with 23% rating him as their most admired public figure over age 75; among men that proportion rises to 30%, and he reaches 33% among Republicans despite his unusual 2012 GOP convention appearance, making him that group’s second highest choice. Morgan Freeman runs a close second with 21% overall, but he is the clear favorite among both African Americans (40%) and Millennials (33%). Jimmy Carter finishes third overall with 19%, but he tops Democrats’ list (33%). Similarly, George H.W. Bush is number one among Republicans (36%), and he finishes fourth overall with 17%. Rounding out the most admired list in double digits are Billy Graham (16%) and Warren Buffett (13%). Buffett’s popularity lands him in second place among college-educated adults and affluent Americans. Billy Graham is relatively well loved among those over age 50. The three most admired women cross the ideological spectrum—former First Lady Nancy Reagan (9%) on the right, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg (7%) on the left, and TV newswoman Barbara Walters (9%) in the middle.

Will: Upon graduating from Timber Creek Regional High School in 2007, I decided to attend Berklee College of Music in Boston, Massachusetts. After completing their “5- Week Summer Program” in the Summer of 2005, I knew that there was something about this institution that uniquely suited my needs, my passion, and my dreams. I was always interested in traditional and contemporary music, as well as the ever-evolving technology that was used in its creation. Berklee truly felt like the only place where I could fully immerse myself in the study of music and music technology, while being surrounded by thousands of other scholars who were passionate about music or the music industry.

  • Yes, Virginia, Rock and Roll Is Dead, and Flesht<>
    Yes, Virginia, Rock and Roll is dead, and Flesht<>nes is its potent spirit. The brain-child of Playhouse of the Ridic:ulous alumni ./ Sterling Blak, (Mario Montez, Taylor Mead, and Charles Ludlahm were his classmates), and fellow avant-gardist Larry Lean, (son of famed L.A. session-man Mel Moore), Fleshtones is Rock and Roll in the boldest of colors; the rightful l:eirs to Professor Longhair and The Velvet Underground ••• the fulfillment of rock's promise of long ago, and a triumph for hard rockers everywhere. Egged on by their bone-crunching bant L, vocalists Blak and Lean bend and twist the musical express:'.on of ecstacy and despair to their most tormented limits. Those to be held personally responsible are fat-1.:at drummer Walt 'twhammy" Douglas (who parlayed a ho-hum bat·:;ing average into one of the most impressive slugging records in ·rock history), power-bassist Marko Roxx (his name tells the tale), ' guitarists Chance Fleeting (who's searing leads ,Uld .relentless rhythms on such instant classics as "Rock and Ro:Ll Hell" and "Bitch Boy" assure his niche in rock's Hall of F:Lame), and Mario David (his solo at the end of the catharti·! masterpiece, "No More", makes it clear once and for all that Jimi and Robin are nice names for girls). But mostly credit is due composer-vocalist Lean ( a high-yellow baby Jean Genet with the voice of Carmen McRae gone mad), and lyricist-vocalist Blak (a tantalizing flash of pure terror guaranteed to drive psycho-drama out of the clos~t with a single blood-freezing scream).

  • The Leadership Skills of a Music Producer
    The Leadership Skills of a Music Producer OVERVIEW ESSENTIAL QUESTION How do successful music producers practice positive leadership skills? OVERVIEW Have you ever wondered what goes into creating a successful album? Or, how an artist writes a song on acoustic guitar that somehow becomes a fully orchestrated pop hit? Almost always, a successful recording is the result of a team Photo: Apple Music effort. There are dozens of ways a songwriter can funnel a song from her brain to the airwaves. She might work with other composers, lyricists, and arrangers to craft and finely tune the song. Then, when recording, she may employ any number of extra musicians to add instruments or vocals. Engineers are required to record all those instruments, and later to “mix” them into a final product. Artists, photographers and designers must create a “look” for the recording package that complements the artist and music. And, perhaps most importantly, someone will need to manage the entire process, guiding all team members toward a unified aesthetic and timely completion. That someone, most often, is the “producer.” A successful music producer will see the potential of the artists with whom they work, have a vision for how to best reach the public with the artists’ music, and, more importantly, a plan regarding the steps required to do it. The producer may take on many roles, such as choosing a recording studio, gathering ideas, helping to compose and arrange the music, selecting musicians to play on a track, coaching the artist, and leading the recording session. The producer can function as a boss, a coach, a teacher, a colleague, or any combination of the above.
