    The Tin Pan Alley Pop Era (1885-Mid 1950'S)

    OVERVIEW: The Foundation of Rock And Roll During the Great Migration more than 100,000 African-American laborers moved from the agricultural South to the urban North bringing with them their music and memories. Also, during the 1920’s the phonograph and the rise of commercial radio began to spread Hillbilly music and the Blues. This gave rise to an appreciating of American vernacular music, both white and black. Ultimately, the homogenizing effect of blending several regional musical styles and cultural practices gave birth to 1950’s rock and roll.

    Covid Reflections

    Covid Reflections Jessica Martin Ely Cathedral 2020 1 © Jessica Martin and Ely Cathedral, 2020 2 Because of the coronavirus, Ely Cathedral was forced to lock its doors between 18th March and 3rd July 2020. It was the first time in more than three hundred and fifty years that the cathedral had been closed to worshippers. During this strange season of isolation and anxiety, Canon Jessica Martin wrote a regular series of reflections for the cathedral website – first daily and then, as lockdown went on and on, spaced further apart. Gradually they reached beyond the Ely congregation, until they were being read as a source of comfort and spiritual inspiration as far away as Australia and Texas. ‘You spoke our thoughts,’ was one appreciative comment. Following many requests, this is the complete series of the reflections gathered into one place. 3 18 March 2020 I was going to have a stupidly busy Wednesday. Diary stuffed to the gills as usual, event in the evening. All gone. I wandered into the Cathedral – usually full of visitors, buzzing with different agendas and different groups. Today, deserted, except for a single figure removing the chairs. But the candle stands are alight with somebody’s prayers. My inbox is full of messages from our wider Cathedral community offering help for the isolated, phone support, food parcels, shopping, medication. The sense of a loving community is, if anything, stronger than it was when everyone was preoccupied with all the stuff they had to get through before the end of the day. Four hundred years ago, a poet was forced to self- isolate.

  • “That's All Right” on Memphis Radio, July 1954

    “That's All Right” on Memphis Radio, July 1954

    “That’s All Right” on Memphis Radio, July 1954 Source: Historic-Memphis.com Dewey Phillips was a longtime disc jockey at WHBQ radio in Memphis, Tennessee. Phillips was known for playing music recorded by both black and white and artists. Shortly after Elvis Presley made his first recording, a single whose A-side was the Rhythm and Blues song “That’s All Right,” Phillips became the first disc jockey in the country to play the song on the radio, in July 1954. The account below is taken from the book The Last Train to Memphis: The Rise of Elvis Presley, by Peter Guralnick. The response was instantaneous… He played the record seven times in a row, eleven times, seven times over the course of the rest of the program. In retrospect it doesn’t really matter; it seemed as if all of Memphis was listening as Dewey kept up his nonstop patter, egging his radio audience on, encouraging them to join him in the discovery of a new voice… For Gladys [Presley, Elvis’ mother] the biggest shock was “hearing them say his name over the radio just before they put on that record…” She didn’t have time to think about it for long anyway, because almost immediately the phone rang. It was Dewey for Elvis… He said, “Mrs. Presley, you just get that cotton-picking son of yours down here to the station. I played that record of his, and them birdbrain phones haven’t stopped ringing since.”… Within minutes, Elvis was at the station. “I was scared to death,” Elvis said.
