  • Southern Black Gospel Music: Qualitative Look at Quartet Sound
    LIBERTY UNIVERSITY SOUTHERN BLACK GOSPEL MUSIC: QUALITATIVE LOOK AT QUARTET SOUND DURING THE GOSPEL ‘BOOM’ PERIOD OF 1940-1960 A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE SCHOOL OF MUSIC IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN ETHNOMUSICOLOGY BY BEATRICE IRENE PATE LYNCHBURG, V.A. April 2014 1 Abstract The purpose of this work is to identify features of southern black gospel music, and to highlight what makes the music unique. One goal is to present information about black gospel music and distinguishing the different definitions of gospel through various ages of gospel music. A historical accounting for the gospel music is necessary, to distinguish how the different definitions of gospel are from other forms of gospel music during different ages of gospel. The distinctions are important for understanding gospel music and the ‘Southern’ gospel music distinction. The quartet sound was the most popular form of music during the Golden Age of Gospel, a period in which there was significant growth of public consumption of Black gospel music, which was an explosion of black gospel culture, hence the term ‘gospel boom.’ The gospel boom period was from 1940 to 1960, right after the Great Depression, a period that also included World War II, and right before the Civil Rights Movement became a nationwide movement. This work will evaluate the quartet sound during the 1940’s, 50’s, and 60’s, which will provide a different definition for gospel music during that era. Using five black southern gospel quartets—The Dixie Hummingbirds, The Fairfield Four, The Golden Gate Quartet, The Soul Stirrers, and The Swan Silvertones—to define what southern black gospel music is, its components, and to identify important cultural elements of the music.

  • The Jean Thomas Story—Part 3
    The Jean Thomas Story—Part 3 Jean Thomas worked with many top producers during the 1960s but the one who cre- ated her best known work and who perhaps brought the best out of her vocal talent was Bob Crewe. Bob Crewe had a special talent himself and was a highly respected producer Jean’s good friend Ellie Greenwich had a good relation- ship with Bob Crewe and commented on his ability and on how they first met in an interview before her untimely passing in 2009….. "I'm not exactly sure when I met Bob Crewe, but we always saw each other around the business from the very beginning. (We) had an affinity for each other (and) still do! He was a joy to work with on all levels . he's a perfectionist, he's open to any outside ideas, he really knows what he wants and gets it, and most of all, he is passionate about what he does. He puts all of himself into eve- rything he touches . I always loved and still do love Bob! I can go on and on about this talented gentleman, and he is just that: A 'gentle man'." Mick Patrick and Malcolm Baumgart captured the best of Bob Crewe’s productions on “The DynoVoice Story….the label that had to happen” Westside CD226 and say of his unique- ness …..“Bob Crewe is not a man to be easily pigeon-holed. Possessed by an overriding creative urge from his earliest years, he has painted , worked as a photographic model, sculpted, acted,run an art gallery and dabbled in interior design alongside those talents for which he is justly renowned – ie singer, songwriter, producer, label owner, music publisher and manager.” The best of his productions of course include those of Jean Tho- mas.

  • Billy Jonas and His Band Bring ‘Neo-Tribal Hootenanny’ to CL
    Billy Jonas and his band bring ‘neo-tribal hootenanny’ to CL By JAMI KUNZER • [email protected] “It’s easy for people to be part of the music and to feel like the song has been part of their lives even if they’ve never heard it,” he said. At a performance of Jonas and the Billy Jonas Band, the audience is invited to participate as Jonas combines conventional instruments of guitar, bass and marimba with homemade creations, such as buckets and barrels, keys and cans, bells and body percussion. His three goals: to have fun, to make it easy and to sound good. “Adults and kids are equally entertained,” Jonas said. “We look for the balance between asking them to be part of it and asking them to go along for the ride.” Jonas performs throughout the country and Canada. His CD, “What Kind of Cat are You?!” has received multiple awards, including a First Place/Gold from the American Federation of Independent Musicians and Parent’s Choice Gold. Growing up in Chicago, Jonas learned instruments, such as piano, guitar and trombone, at a young age. But, he said, “The most joy I had was when I was with my friends playing rhythms in the kitchen on pots and pans.” He and his friends would bang on the pans with chopsticks. In college, they turned the act into a band called “The Oberlin Big Bang Theory.” After college, Jonas began writing songs and playing them at coffeehouses. He’d present them “raw,” using only a water bottle drum and his voice.
