These two shows celebrate the renowned record label’s broad musical mission and serve as precursors to BAM’s larger celebration of Nonesuch’s 50th anniversary this fall (the full slate of fall shows will be announced shortly). BAM has fostered a longtime artistic connection with Nonesuch and its dedication to cultivating outstanding talent in a wide variety of musical genres including classical, contemporary, jazz, Americana, world music, pop, alternative, musical theater, and dance. On April 10, Carolina Chocolate Drops perform music from their two Nonesuch releases: Genuine Negro Jig (2010) and Leaving Eden (2012), among others. Fronted by vocalist and banjo player Rhiannon Giddens, Carolina Chocolate Drops “dip into styles of Southern black music from the 1920s and 30s—string-band music, jug-band music, fife and drum, early jazz— and beam their curiosity outward” (The New York Times).

  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.

There are Literally hundreds upon hundreds of great titles. If you would like to order from this newsletter you can email, phone or post an order. If phoning please feel free to call after hours From 8.00am up until 7.00pm is fine. I have a couple of pieces of bad news. Firstly my dear mum, Rose Reid, passed away on February 23rd. Many knew her as she worked Wednesdays at the old Parramatta store from 1990-2000 and filled in when I went on buying trips. It has been a trying period but I can honestly say she loved her time in the shop especially meeting and talking to many fine people and was a keen music buff, something that has passed on through the genes. Secondly, we lost a dear friend in Norm Pyne. Many who went to the Parramatta store would have seen a blind guy getting round with only a cane. My admiration for Norm was limitless. I never considered him handicapped in any way and he was always thankful for his independence. It is a sad irony of life that it is probably this independence which saw him involved in an horrific accident which cost him his life.

  • Edited and with an Introduction by Olivia Carter Mather and J
    ECHO: a music-centered journal www.echo.ucla.edu Volume 4 Issue 2 (Fall 2002) Edited and with an Introduction by Olivia Carter Mather and J. Lester Feder Introduction Why Now? A Millenial Folk Revival? 1. The success of the Coen Brothers’ 2000 movie, O Brother, Where Art Thou?, and its Appalachian- and Bluegrass-inflected soundtrack seemed to come out of the blue. When considered alongside other artifacts of popular culture from recent years—the re-release of the Harry Smith Anthology of American Folk Music, Moby’s album Play, and the popularity of the Dixie Chicks, to name a few—it is clear that the new interest in music drawing on “folk” or “roots” influences has obvious precedents. At the same time, O Brother’s popularity has spawned a wide array of “follow up” products and projects: new folk anthologies, books, concert tours, TV series, documentaries, women- in-bluegrass collections, soundtracks, and even church musicals. Taken as a package, it seems we are in the midst of a “folk revival”—a period when popular (and corporate) culture looks to music, art, and other cultural forms that are seen as “folkloric,” treated as if created by communities of music-makers without the interference or mediation of technology. 2. There have been many previous folk revivals in this century, the most (in)famous of which occurred in the late 50s and early 60s, including performers such as Pete Seeger and Joan Baez and collectors such as Alan Lomax. The 60s revival—whose presence is very much felt in the ECHO: a music-centered journal www.echo.ucla.edu Volume 4 Issue 2 (Fall 2002) current moment—itself looked to a revival of the early twentieth century, when collectors such as Cecil Sharp, Olive Dame Campbell, and John Lomax (Alan’s father) headed into the rural parts of the United States in search of “authentic” indigenous expressions.

  • “Coat of Many Colors”—Dolly Parton (1971) Added to the National Registry: 2011 Essay by Cary O’Dell
    “Coat of Many Colors”—Dolly Parton (1971) Added to the National Registry: 2011 Essay by Cary O’Dell Original album Dolly Parton “Love, Sex, Murder” is a compilation of some of Johnny Cash’s best and most resonating recordings; it was released in 2000. If those three words ably sum up much of the Man in Black’s repertoire as a singer and songwriter, then his fellow country legend, Dolly Parton, can just as aptly be condensed into “Love, Sex, God.” Certainly it is the first and last of those trio of words that are fully covered in Parton’s legendary song “Coat of Many Colors,” a song that was added to the National Recording Registry in 2011. Believe it or not, there was a time when Parton was not valued as a songwriter. Instead, in the very early part of her career, as an appendage to Porter Wagoner, Parton was better known for her crystalline voice, voluptuous hair and even more voluptuous figure. Despite the success she enjoyed as a vocalist and a songwriter (with a couple of early self-penned hits like “Put It Off Until Tomorrow” and “Fuel to the Flame,” both co-written with Parton’s uncle Bill Owens), it would not be until the breakthrough of her “Just Because I’m a Woman” in 1968 and “Joshua” in 1971, that audiences and the industry alike realized what a gifted musician and lyricist Parton truly was. But even those successes were just prologue, a build-up of sorts, to one of Parton’s crowning and career-defining achievements, her heartfelt 1971 hit “Coat of Many Colors.” In the song’s five verses, Parton spins a full story/fable that touches on issues long since abandoned by “country” music—religion, poverty, childhood, and family.
