    VOL. 7, NO. 10 Cover Photo by Rick Malkin FEATURES ALEX VAN HALEN Rock musicians are often accused of being more concerned with the rock 'n' roll lifestyle than with the music. That lifestyle is very much a part of Alex Van Halen's image, but underneath that image is a serious musician who has a lot to say about drums and drumming, and he says it here in this MD exclusive. by Robyn Flans 8 PHILLIP WILSON For a drummer to have played with such diverse groups as The Art Ensemble of Chicago and the Paul Butterfield Blues Band indicates that his musicianship is not limited in any way, and that is certainly true of Phillip Wilson, who has a knack for weaving seemingly contrasting influences together into one unique style. by Chip Stern 16 DRUMS AROUND THE WORLD Japan's Stomu Yamash'ta; England's Ronnie Verrell; Brazil's Ivan Conti; Canada's Steve Negus; Israel's Aron Kaminski; Den- mark's Alex Riel. 20 FRANK BEARD In this revealing interview, Frank Beard, the unpretentious, self-taught drummer for ZZ Top, discusses his career from his early emulations of '60s British rock bands, to his later involvement with a psychedelic group, and his present position as a member of the highly successful, Texas-based rock trio. by Susan Alexander 26 ROCK CHARTS COLUMNS "Lowdown In the Street" PROFILES 74 by James Morton ON THE MOVE Nelson Montana 30 ROCK PERSPECTIVES A Left-Handed Perspective REVIEWS EDUCATION by Robert Doyle 92 ON TRACK 94 CLUB SCENE STRICTLY TECHNIQUE PRINTED PAGE 96 Handling the Ups and Downs Triplets With Buzz Rolls 46 by Joe Morello by Rick Van Horn 100 NEWS COMPLETE PERCUSSIONIST UPDATE Junkanoo EQUIPMENT by Robyn Flans 110 by Neil M.

Cline Certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Permanent Underground: Radical Sounds and Social Formations in 20th Century American Musicking Committee: Mark C. Smith, Supervisor Steven Hoelscher Randolph Lewis Karl Hagstrom Miller Shirley Thompson Permanent Underground: Radical Sounds and Social Formations in 20th Century American Musicking by John F. Cline, B.A.; M.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin May 2012 Dedication This dissertation is dedicated to my mother and father, Gary and Linda Cline. Without their generous hearts, tolerant ears, and (occasionally) open pocketbooks, I would have never made it this far, in any endeavor. A second, related dedication goes out to my siblings, Nicholas and Elizabeth. We all get the help we need when we need it most, don’t we? Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to thank my dissertation supervisor, Mark Smith. Even though we don’t necessarily work on the same kinds of topics, I’ve always appreciated his patient advice. I’m sure he’d be loath to use the word “wisdom,” but his open mind combined with ample, sometimes non-academic experience provided reassurances when they were needed most. Following closely on Mark’s heels is Karl Miller. Although not technically my supervisor, his generosity with his time and his always valuable (if sometimes painful) feedback during the dissertation writing process was absolutely essential to the development of the project, especially while Mark was abroad on a Fulbright.

  • And a Letter to My Customers ===
    --- == ROOTS & RHYTHM - SALE 01/12/2014 - AND A LETTER TO MY CUSTOMERS === --- Dear Friends Happy New Year! We hope you all had a wonderful holiday season. NOTE: Regrettably our holiday season was the slowest we've ever seen and it may mean that we will not be able to continue operating our business for very much longer. I am no longer a young man (not by a long shot!) and don't have the energy to pursue ways in which we may be able to promote the business. I would love to be able to settle down and listen to all the music I have gathered over the years in a relaxed setting and with critical reviewing faculties turned off. I would love to see Roots & Rhythm continue and thrive and even if we make it through the current crisis I would still like to get away from the stress of running a business so I am open to having someone else take over and move the company forward. If you are such a person or know such a person please contact me and we can discuss it. This list consists of a sale which we hope will raise enough money to help us get caught up with our suppliers and our taxes as well as some other pressing expenses. This list features 600 titles in all covering all the genres of music we specialize in and featuring books, DVDs and compact discs. This list includes manufacturer?s overstocks and deletions, our own excess inventory and a lot of titles that have been sitting on our shelves that have never been listed before.

    S0480 Hayes, Bernard (1935- ), Papers, 1961-1989, 16 Folders, 2 Audio Tapes This collection is available at The State Historical Society of Missouri. If you would like more information, please contact us at [email protected]. Bernard Hayes, news director for KWMU Radio, loaned his scrapbooks and papers for copying to the Western Historical Manuscript Collection on November 29, 1989. Bernie Hayes began his radio career in the Air Force in 1950 as an announcer for the Armed Forces Radio Service. After his military service, Hayes returned to the University of Illinois and graduated with a degree in journalism. In 1956 he began work as the black on-air personality and first black news announcer for a radio station in Alexandria, Louisiana. Hayes went on to other broadcasting jobs in New York and New Jersey in 1961 and in Chicago throughout 1962 and 1963. In Chicago, Hayes worked for WMMP, the first black- owned radio station in the midwest; WSBC and WGES, narrowcast stations that programmed for ethnic areas within the city; and WVON ("Voice of the Negro"), a radio station owned by the Chess brothers, whose record label featured such blues and rock artists as Muddy Waters and Chuck Berry. Hayes moved to San Francisco in 1964 and joined the staff of KSOL, a soul music station. Hayes also worked as a producer and recording artist for Volt, a subsidiary of the soul music label, Stax Records. Hayes arrived in St. Louis in April 1965, working first for KXLW and then as an announcer for KATZ, a black music station.

  • Women in Rock OLLI Berkeley Course Material
    Syllabus for Women in Rock: From the 1950s to the 1980s Instructor: Richie Unterberger, [email protected] OLLI Berkeley Week One: Women in Rock: The Early Years and The Girl Groups In the 1950s, rhythm and blues singers like Ruth Brown and LaVern Baker have some of the first rock’n’roll hits; Wanda Jackson and the Collins Kids are top rockabilly acts; and Brenda Lee becomes the first woman rock superstar. As New York’s Brill Building becomes established as the top place for rock publishers, women like Carole King, Cynthia Weil, and Ellie Greenwich become some of pop-rock’s most successful songwriters. Girl groups like the Shirelles, the Crystals, the Ronettes, the Chiffons, and the Cookies have numerous hits in the early 1960s, forming one of the major trends in rock of the period. In the early 1960s, some of the most R&B-oriented girl groups become some of the first soul stars, especially for Motown Records, with the Marvelettes, Martha & the Vandellas, the Supremes, and Mary Wells. Week Two: Women in Soul and British Rock Women soul singers emerge throughout the country, some of them more pop-oriented (Maxine Brown, Dionne Warwick), some of them earthier (Carla Thomas, Irma Thomas, Etta James). Aretha Franklin is anointed the Queen of Soul after moving to Atlantic Records and adopting a tougher, more spiritual sound. Other women soul singers with a forceful style emerge and increase in popularity, like Gladys Knight, Nina Simone, and the Staple Singers. Although all-male guitar bands dominate the British Invasion, a good number of women singers also make an impact both in their native UK and in the US.
