    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

  • Be My Baby”—The Ronettes (1963) Added to the National Registry: 2006 Essay by Cary O’Dell
    “Be My Baby”—The Ronettes (1963) Added to the National Registry: 2006 Essay by Cary O’Dell The Ronettes Original label Phil Spector Instantly infectious and memorable, “Be My Baby” has been described as the “Record of the Century” and the “greatest pop record ever made.” It was recorded by the Ronettes in 1963. It was written by Phil Spector, Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich and was produced by Phil Spector. It was named to the National Recording Registry in 2006. The Ronettes were a group of girls from Spanish Harlem, sisters Veronica (“Ronnie”) and Estelle Bennett and their cousin Nedra Talley. Before becoming a trio, the young women were a group of five joined by two other cousins, Elaine and Diane. (Sometimes they were also joined by their male cousin, Ira.) They sang together and perfected their harmonies at their grandmother’s house before branching out to play local dances and talent contests. Along with refining their line-up and sound, the girls also defined their look. In his biography of Phil Spector, author Mick Brown says of the group: The standard demeanor of girl groups of the day was one of demure innocence…But the Ronettes looked as if it was a Saturday night and they were cruising for trouble—figure- hugging dresses, hair piled into improbable beehives and lashings of mascara, which transformed the youthful high school girls into vamps. Today, the Ronettes are nearly as remembered for their look (which would later be largely carbon-copied by Amy Winehouse) as for their sound. After first being signed by and recording for the Colpix label (under the name Ronnie and the Relatives), the Ronettes came to the attention of Phil Spector who immediately took a liking to the group and especially to its de facto leader Ronnie.

  • Conventions of Pop Revision Guide
    GCSE MUSIC – CONVENTIONS OF POP REVISION GUIDE CONVENTIONS OF POP REVISION GUIDE Page 1 of 35 © WWW.MUSICALCONTEXTS.CO.UK GCSE MUSIC – CONVENTIONS OF POP REVISION GUIDE Rock ‘n’ Roll of the 1950’s and 1960’s Rock and roll was formed from a mixture of COUNTRY AND WESTERN and RHYTHM AND BLUES. One of the first rock and roll singers to take America by storm was Elvis Presley who released the hit single ‘That’s Alright Mamma’ in 1954. This was followed by a string of hits and by 1956 he had sold more than 20 million records. Presley’s spectacular stage performance with his arrogant sneer and thrusting hips created a sensation. In 1955, Little Richard exploded onto the music scene with ‘Tutti Fruitti’. He screamed the words, pounded the piano and shook his hair. A series of other singers followed including Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins and Buddy Holly. It was Buddy Holly who took the development of Rock ‘n’ Roll further than anyone else by using multi-tracking recording techniques to produce complex studio arrangements. The late 1950’s and 1960’s brought success to a number of Rock ‘n’ Roll groups. These were male vocal groups such as The Drifters who released ‘Under the Boardwalk’ in 1964 and female vocal groups such as The Shangri Las who released ‘Leader of the Pack’ in 1964. The Beach Boys combined with the harmonies of Afro- American vocal groups to produce their own distinctive sound in numbers such as ‘Surfin’ USA’. British teenagers took little part in the Rock ‘n’ Roll craze until the American group Bill Haley and the Comets, created a sensation with the release of the film ‘Rock around the Clock’ in 1955.
