Having played the instru- ment for, then, almost two decades, I thought that a novelist would not, could not, feature specialty instruments such as the C-melody sax if he did not play the horn himself. Once the saxophone had caught my attention, I noticed all sorts of uncommon references that seemed to confirm my hunch that Thomas Pynchon himself played the instrument: McClintic Sphere’s 4½ reed, the contra- bass sax of Against the Day, Gravity’s Rainbow’s Charlie Parker passage.

  • Warner/Reprise Loss Leaders Booklet
    THE WARNER BROS. LOSS LEADERS SERIES (1969-1980) Depending On How You Count Them, 34 Essential Various Artist Collections From Another Time We figured it was about time to pull together all of the incredible Warner Bros. Loss Leaders releases dating back to 1969 (and even a little earlier). For those who lived through the era, Warner Bros. Records was winning the sales of an entire generation by signing and supporting some of music’s most uniquely groundbreaking recording artists… during music’s most uniquely groundbreak- ing time. With an appealingly irreverent style (“targeted youth marketing,” it would be called today), WB was making lifelong fans of the kids who entered into the label’s vast catalog of art- ists via the Loss Leaders series—advertised on inner sleeves & brochures, and offering generous selections priced at $1 per LP, $2 for doubles and $3 for their sole 3-LP release, Looney Tunes And Merrie Melodies. And that was including postage. Yes… those were the days, but back then there were very few ways, outside of cut-out bins or a five-finger discount, to score bulk music as cheaply. Warners unashamedly admitted that their inten- tions were to sell more records, by introducing listeners to music they weren’t hearing on their radios, or finding in many of their (still weakly distributed) record stores. And it seemed to work… because the series continued until 1980, and the program issued approximately 34 titles, by our questionable count (detailed in later posts). But, the oldsters among us all fondly remember the multi-paged, gatefold sleeves and inviting artwork/packaging that beckoned from the inner sleeves of our favorite albums, not to mention the assorted rarities, b-sides and oddities that dotted many of the releases.

What Book? I don't want to write a book, but I'm going to do it anyway, because Peter Occhiogrosso is going to help me. He is a writer. He likes books -- he even reads them. I think it is good that books still exist, but they make me sleepy. The way we're going to do it is, Peter will come to California and spend a few weeks recording answers to 'fascinating questions,' then the tapes will be transcribed. Peter will edit them, put them on floppy discs, send them back to me, I will edit them again, and that result will be sent to Ann Patty at Poseidon Press, and she will make it come out to be 'A BOOK.' One of the reasons for doing this is the proliferation of stupid books (in several languages) which purport to be About Me .

Before team particularly Doug, John, Corinna and I continue with this week’s musings I would Jessica, although it really goes against the 4 grain to single anyone out of such a hard who read this magazine. Some of you will, working and productive team. no doubt, be shocked by this revelation. DeMille is a fairly gung ho Republican One of my favourite authors is an American whose ethos would seem to be quite far thriller writer called Nelson DeMille who removed from the anarchist ethos of what I may not be familiar to many of the people write for this magazine, and indeed, how I live my life. But he does write cracking stories! Probably my favourite of his books is one called Word of Honour which tells a very interesting and morally intriguing tale. The main protagonist is a wealthy businessman who, at some time during the late 1980s, is on his way to work.

  • Frank Zappa's Legacy: Just Another Hoover? L’Héritage De Frank Zappa : Juste Un Autre « Hoover »? Ben Watson
    Document généré le 26 sept. 2021 16:13 Circuit Musiques contemporaines Frank Zappa's Legacy: Just Another Hoover? L’héritage de Frank Zappa : juste un autre « Hoover »? Ben Watson Frank Zappa : 10 ans après Résumé de l'article Volume 14, numéro 3, 2004 Dans ce texte, Ben Watson révèle un fait en apparence anodin : lorsque Zappa référait à son « oeuvre », vers la fin de sa vie, en utilisant le mot français, il le URI : https://id.erudit.org/iderudit/902325ar prononçait comme le mot anglais Hoover, qui est le nom de l’une des marques DOI : https://doi.org/10.7202/902325ar d’aspirateurs les plus connues dans le monde. Watson choisit, en utilisant un procédé parfaitement en phase avec le dédain dadaïste que Zappa affichait Aller au sommaire du numéro pour les valeurs culturelles, de transformer cette homophonie en prémisse à son essai : l’oeuvre de Zappa est, en effet, un « Hoover ». La critique académique s’entend aujourd’hui pour faire l’éloge de Zappa en tant que compositeur, mais en laissant de côté l’angle critique de son travail. En fait, ce Éditeur(s) qui rendait Zappa particulier, c’était précisément le fait qu’il reconnaissait que Les Presses de l'Université de Montréal la mise en marché et l’industrie du legs, appliquées au concept de génie, répriment le désire et annihilent la musique. En utilisant des concepts littéraires et psychoanalytiques, l’algèbre zappologique de Watson arrive à ISSN l’équation suivante : Stéphane Mallarmé + Wilhelm Reich = Frank Zappa. Après 1183-1693 (imprimé) une étude approfondie de la récurrence du motif « Hoover » dans l’oeuvre de 1488-9692 (numérique) Zappa, l’auteur examine l’héritage du compositeur, qu’il remarque particulièrement dans le travail de Project/Object, des Muffin Men, de Matt Découvrir la revue Groening avec la série télévisée The Simpsons et du trio formé des improvisateurs Eugene Chadbourne, Jimmy Carl Black et Pat Thomas.

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.

  • From Straight to Bizarre Zappa, Beefheart, Alice Cooper and LA's
    From Straight To Bizarre Zappa, Beefheart, Alice Cooper And LA's Lunatic Fringe Sexy Intellectual DVD This considered examination of the eccentric landscape of the infamous Bizarre/Straight catalogue makes for compleling viewing and with a running time of some two hours and 40 minutes the film gives its subject the screen time it so richly deserves. Created by Zappa and Mothers manager Herb Cohen in 1968 as a release outlet specialising in the weird, the wonderful and the strictly non mainstream following Zappa's clashes with his former label MGM over the old stumblig block of artistic control the extraordinary Bizarre/Straight story is infamous for having given the world such unforgettable cultural landmarks as An Evening With Wild Man Fischer and Trout Mask Replica. With Zappa operating as LA's resident king of the freaks from his Laurel Canyon hideaway, the documentary chronicles the labels groundbreaking appetite for assembling a notorious roster of misfits including The GTOs, Wild Man Fischer, Captain Beefheart & The Magic Band, Lenny Bruce, Lord Buckley, Tim Buckley, accappella gospel group The Persuasions and the labels greatest commercial success Alice Cooper via the input of interviewees including Pamela Des Barres, Kim Fowley, Bill Harkleroad, John French, Neal Smith, Dennis Dunaway, Jeff Simmons and an impressive array of vintage performance footage. While the Bizarre/Straight era represented a unique chapter in the annals of the late 60s and early 70s the thrust of the film's critical commentary is that if the entire Bizarre/Straight operation had only given the world Trout Mask Replica it would still have more than have achieved its goal.

The Unendorsable Frank Zappa 1 The Unendorsable Frank Zappa Paul Carr, ed., Frank Zappa and the And, Farnham (Surrey), Ashgate, 2013 Bernard Genton REFERENCES CARR, Paul, ed., Frank Zappa and the And, Farnham (Surrey), Ashgate, 2013, 247 pages, ISBN 978-4094-3337-8, 49.50 pounds. 1 The title seems cryptic at first, and the thanks extended to “Jesus Christ—the author of all things good” in the acknowledgments section somewhat puzzling. This collection of essays gathered by Paul Carr offers a comprehensive view of Frank Zappa the artist, the public figure and the man. A prolific performer, composer, producer, recording engineer, social commentator and occasional film director, Frank Zappa never achieved the level of popularity of the major American bands that emerged in the mid-to-late sixties. If he was part of the global picture of rock music, it was mostly in the background or on the sidelines: as the editor admits in his illuminating introduction, “his music is unlikely ever to enter the mainstream of popular music” (14).
