THE SHARED INFLUENCES and CHARACTERISTICS of JAZZ FUSION and PROGRESSIVE ROCK by JOSEPH BLUNK B.M.E., Illinois State University, 2014
COMMON GROUND: THE SHARED INFLUENCES AND CHARACTERISTICS OF JAZZ FUSION AND PROGRESSIVE ROCK by JOSEPH BLUNK B.M.E., Illinois State University, 2014 A thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Colorado in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Master in Jazz Performance and Pedagogy Department of Music 2020 Abstract Blunk, Joseph Michael (M.M., Jazz Performance and Pedagogy) Common Ground: The Shared Influences and Characteristics of Jazz Fusion and Progressive Rock Thesis directed by Dr. John Gunther In the late 1960s through the 1970s, two new genres of music emerged: jazz fusion and progressive rock. Though typically thought of as two distinct styles, both share common influences and stylistic characteristics. This thesis examines the emergence of both genres, identifies stylistic traits and influences, and analyzes the artistic output of eight different groups: Return to Forever, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Miles Davis’s electric ensembles, Tony Williams Lifetime, Yes, King Crimson, Gentle Giant, and Soft Machine. Through qualitative listenings of each group’s musical output, comparisons between genres or groups focus on instances of one genre crossing over into the other. Though many examples of crossing over are identified, the examples used do not necessitate the creation of a new genre label, nor do they demonstrate the need for both genres to be combined into one. iii Contents Introduction………………………………………………………………………………… 1 Part One: The Emergence of Jazz………………………………………………………….. 3 Part Two: The Emergence of Progressive………………………………………………….. 10 Part Three: Musical Crossings Between Jazz Fusion and Progressive Rock…………….... 16 Part Four: Conclusion, Genre Boundaries and Commonalities……………………………. 40 Bibliography………………………………………………………………………………. -

WXYC Brings You Gems from the Treasure of UNC's Southern

PRESSEMITTEILUNG 02.03.2017 SWMRS Spielen Am 5. April in Berlin
FKP Scorpio Konzertproduktionen GmbH Große Elbstr. 277 a ∙ 22767 Hamburg Tel. (040) 853 88 888 ∙ www.fkpscorpio.com PRESSEMITTEILUNG 02.03.2017 SWMRS spielen am 5. April in Berlin SWMRS rocken schon eine ganze Weile die Häuser der Bay Area: Seit 2004 spielte Drummer Joey Armstrong mit seinen Schulfreunden, den Brüdern Cole und Max Becker (Gesang, Gitarre und früher Bass) unter dem Namen Emily’s Army zusammen. Zugegeben, der Schlagzeuger war bei der Gründung gerade einmal neun Jahre alt. Aber wenn man einen Vater wie Green Day- Frontmann Billie Joe Armstrong hat, der einen von Anfang an unterstützt, ist auch in diesem Alter schon einiges möglich (immerhin haben die Jungs als Teenager schon zwei Platten aufgenommen). Die eigentliche Karriere von SWMRS begann aber im Jahr 2014, als Bassist Seb Mueller dazu kam und der Sound sich veränderte, verschärfte, deutlich härter und politischer wurde. In seiner Musik kombiniert das Quartett aus Oakland, Kalifornien, die bissigen Breitseiten von The Clash, das Amphetamin-Bubblegum der Ramones und die schneidenden Texte, treibende Energie und raue Ehrlichkeit von Public Enemy, Frank Ocean, A Tribe Called Quest und Kurt Cobain. SWMRS „definieren den Sound des Hier & Jetzt“, pries der Rolling Stone die Band und ernannte sie zu einem der „Best New Artists 2016“. Das Debütalbum „Drive North“ wurde produziert von Zac Carper von Fidlar und ist durchzogen von Coming-of-Age- Stücken, subversiven Hymnen an Myley Cyrus und einem Gefühl der Freiheit, das den Überforderungen des heutigen Lebens abgerungen wurde. Die Gitarren ziehen eine blutige Spur, die Drums detonieren, die Stimme ist einzigartig, der Sound zeitlos. -

For the past three years, JAZZ.FM91 has been presenting music business seminars, specially geared to workers in jazz. These events have been well attended and well received, because they fill a particular void in the realm of business education for artists; that of networking and strategizing around the precarious world of making a living in jazz music. In February and May of 2017, JAZZ.FM91 teamed up with TD Bank Group and Music Ontario to continue this much needed seminar tradition. This document is a compendium of just some of the ideas discussed at the two events. For a deeper look into the concepts touched on below, please visit the music business seminar page on the JAZZ.FM91 website here: http://jazz.fm/index.php/education-mainmenu-111/music-seminar For further information about JAZZ.FM91 in general, please go here: jazz.fm For more about Music Ontario, go here: music-ontario.ca For details on the many generous contributions TD Bank Group makes to Canadian music, go here: https://www.tdmusic.com/ 3 JAYMZ BEE, On-Air Host, Producer & Jazz Safari Tour Guide, JAZZ.FM91 Introduction to Good Jazz Business • Community is important!

ML134.T42S36 2015 016.78092--dc23 2014044640 Since I first went to Rome in 1922, Italian culture, the Italian people and the Italian language have been the strongest single influence on my intellectual and artistic development as a person and as a composer. So true is this that I cannot imagine what my life would be without all the bonds that bind me in loyalty and devotion to Italy and to my Italian friends. 13 June 1959 letter from Thompson to Alfredo Trinchieri Thompson always makes you think there is nothing as beautiful, as rich, or as varied as the sounds of the human voice. Alfred Frankenstein, San Francisco Chronicle (24 May 1958) It is one of the lovely pieces our country has produced, that any country, indeed, has produced in our century. -
Fidlar Self Titled Album Download FIDLAR Download (MP3) Fourteen Slices of Insanely Catchy and Aptly Titled Punk Rock Tunes
fidlar self titled album download FIDLAR Download (MP3) Fourteen slices of insanely catchy and aptly titled punk rock tunes. The debut album by FIDLAR, recorded and self-produced at the band’s home studio with mixing duties handled by Rob Schnapf (Elliot Smith, Beck, Guided By Voices) is fourteen slices of insanely catchy and aptly titled punk rock tunes. Track list: 1. Cheap Beer 2. Stoked And Broke 3. White On White 4. No Waves 5. Whore 6. Max Can't Surf 7. Black Out Stout 8. Wake Bake Skate 9. Gimme Something 10. 5 to 9 11, LDA 12. Paycheck 13. Wait For The Man 14. Cocaine 15. Awkward. * Praise for FIDLAR * "an electrifying, intensely fun album" 8/10 - NME. "With its Ramones-via-The Golden State garage punk, it's brilliantly noisy in all the best places ('White On White', 'Wait For The Man') and yet not afraid to tone down on occasion ('Gimme Something')." 9/10 - DIY. "The spirit of drunk adolescence, cramped kitchens and broken valuable endures on their frightfully fun debut." 4/5 - Q. Fidlar struggles to break free. “Almost Free” is the third studio album from Los Angeles punk band Fidlar; it released on Jan. 24. Band members Zac Carper, Elvis Kuehn, Max Kuehn and Brandon Schwartzel take some big risks to break free from their familiar punk identity. The band released its debut album in 2013, the self-titled “Fidlar.” It featured a raw, simplistic punk aesthetic inspired by bands like The Offspring, Black Lips and Dead Kennedys. Despite criticism that the record was lyrically and musically one dimensional, the band’s potential for writing a great punk song was clear, and people started to take notice. -

You’d probably notice there’s only a single lane of one-way traffic and that the remaining road – and most of the sidewalks are torn up. There are bulldozers and piles of gravel and construction workers. What’s so creative about that? Dig a little deeper and you’ll see a community that more and more every day is thriving, and where artists are playing an important role in that success. That construction you’re seeing? It’s a
