The same week, Blondie's seminal album Parallel Lines reached #1 on the Album Chart while Costello's Armed Forces landed at #3.

DVDs/CDs + Special Features • Games • Gadgets • Kitsch CDs/DVDs Prickly St. Nick The Mirror’s own jolly Holiday elf critiques the latest batch of season-specific releases by SANTA CUMMINS Ho, ho—cough—ho. I’ve been checking my list and checking it twice, but after listening to the latest laser-guided holiday claptrap, it seems that the majority of these greedy Grinches have been more naughty than nice. Heading up the naughty list is none other than that pipe-smokin’ child abuser Bing Crosby. So if you haven’t been a bad little boy or girl, pick up his collection of 16 yuletide chestnuts, Christmas Classics, or Crosby’s ghost of Christmas past promises to return to give your rump a sound rum-a-pum-pumming. Speaking of criminals, why not have yourself a merry little Christmas with the sweet falsetto vocals of Aaron Neville and his record, Christmas Prayer. His version of “Joy to the World,” complete with amazing backing from the Blind Boys of Alabama, is so sweet you almost forget you are listening to a man who spent years fighting off men in prison showers, and has a dagger/amoeba tattooed on his cheek.

  • 2016 Arsc Conference Session Abstracts
    2016 ARSC CONFERENCE SESSION ABSTRACTS THURSDAY, MAY 12 PLENARY SESSION Thursday, 8:45 am – 9:45 am THE JAZZ LEGACY OF INDIANA AVENUE Monika Herzig, Indiana University & David Williams Traditionally, jazz history books trace the inception of the art form jazz from New Orleans to Chicago and its final destination New York. Of course, innovation rarely follows such a linear path and during those early decades many regional jazz scenes developed. Indiana, the Crossroads of America, not only became a central destination for recording sessions at the Gennett Studios, but a frequent stop for all touring bands as they traveled across the country. As a result, Indianapolis’ club scene featured 33 clubs on the two blocks around the Walker Theatre on Indiana Avenue during the height of the Jazz Age. In addition, the dedicated music teachers of the segregated Crispus Attucks High School pushed their students to perform at their highest potential. Such fertile environment produced a host of influential and world-renowned jazz musicians and educators such as Wes Montgomery, Freddie Hubbard, David Baker, J.J. Johnson, Slide Hampton, Larry Ridley, Leroy Vinegar, David Young, Willis Kirk, Killer Ray Appleton, and many more. This panel discussion will discuss the social, economic, and cultural factors that created this unique and fertile community, the teaching philosophy of the Crispus Attucks music educators, and the rise and fall of the Indiana Avenue scene due to the Civil Rights Movement and regional city development using historic recordings and visuals. CIVIL RIGHTS AND ACTIVISM ON RECORD Thursday, 10:15 am – 11:45 am – Session 1 RECORDS OF RESISTANCE: LISTENING TO THE ANTI-VIETNAM WAR GI MOVEMENT THROUGH THE PAREDON RECORD LABEL Jennie Williams, Indiana University This paper focuses on two albums of songs protesting the Vietnam War, recorded and released in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
