  • Course Outline and Syllabus the Fab Four and the Stones: How America Surrendered to the Advance Guard of the British Invasion
    Course Outline and Syllabus The Fab Four and the Stones: How America surrendered to the advance guard of the British Invasion. This six-week course takes a closer look at the music that inspired these bands, their roots-based influences, and their output of inspired work that was created in the 1960’s. Topics include: The early days, 1960-62: London, Liverpool and Hamburg: Importing rhythm and blues and rockabilly from the States…real rock and roll bands—what a concept! Watch out, world! The heady days of 1963: Don’t look now, but these guys just might be more than great cover bands…and they are becoming very popular…Beatlemania takes off. We can write songs; 1964: the rock and roll band as a creative force. John and Paul, their yin and yang-like personal and musical differences fueling their creative tension, discover that two heads are better than one. The Stones, meanwhile, keep cranking out covers, and plot their conquest of America, one riff at a time. The middle periods, 1965-66: For the boys from Liverpool, waves of brilliant albums that will last forever—every cut a memorable, sing-along winner. While for the Londoners, an artistic breakthrough with their first all--original record. Mick and Keith’s tempestuous relationship pushes away band founder Brian Jones; the Stones are established as a force in the music world. Prisoners of their own success, 1967-68: How their popularity drove them to great heights—and lowered them to awful depths. It’s a long way from three chords and a cloud of dust.

  • Young Americans to Emotional Rescue: Selected Meetings
    YOUNG AMERICANS TO EMOTIONAL RESCUE: SELECTING MEETINGS BETWEEN DISCO AND ROCK, 1975-1980 Daniel Kavka A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC August 2010 Committee: Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Katherine Meizel © 2010 Daniel Kavka All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Disco-rock, composed of disco-influenced recordings by rock artists, was a sub-genre of both disco and rock in the 1970s. Seminal recordings included: David Bowie’s Young Americans; The Rolling Stones’ “Hot Stuff,” “Miss You,” “Dance Pt.1,” and “Emotional Rescue”; KISS’s “Strutter ’78,” and “I Was Made For Lovin’ You”; Rod Stewart’s “Do Ya Think I’m Sexy“; and Elton John’s Thom Bell Sessions and Victim of Love. Though disco-rock was a great commercial success during the disco era, it has received limited acknowledgement in post-disco scholarship. This thesis addresses the lack of existing scholarship pertaining to disco-rock. It examines both disco and disco-rock as products of cultural shifts during the 1970s. Disco was linked to the emergence of underground dance clubs in New York City, while disco-rock resulted from the increased mainstream visibility of disco culture during the mid seventies, as well as rock musicians’ exposure to disco music. My thesis argues for the study of a genre (disco-rock) that has been dismissed as inauthentic and commercial, a trend common to popular music discourse, and one that is linked to previous debates regarding the social value of pop music.

  • Art Dealer for Celebrity Artists Goes to Prison After Swindling His A-List Clients for Nearly 30 Years
    AiA Art News-service Art Dealer for Celebrity Artists Goes to Prison After Swindling His A-List Clients for Nearly 30 Years Jonathan Poole was a dealer for high-profile clients that included musicians Miles Davis, John Lennon, and the Rolling Stones' Ronnie Wood. Sarah Cascone, Jonathan Poole. Courtesy of Jonathan Poole. It’s four years behind bars for British art dealer Jonathan Poole, who pled guilty to 26 charges of fraud and theft. The 69 -year-old, who specialized in selling artwork for celebrity musicians, confessed to stealing both art and money from his high - profile clients for nearly three decades, between 1986 and 2013. Among Poole’s notable victims was Ronnie Wood, guitarist for the Rolling Stones and a prolific painter who studied at London’s Ealing Art College and will publish a book, Ronnie Wood: Artist, next month. Poole poached a number of Wood’s portraits, featuring fellow celebrities such as Stones frontman Mick Jagger, musicians Bob Dylan, and Ringo Starr, and actress Marilyn Monroe, according to Reuters, Rolling Stones British guitarist Ronnie Wood poses in front of his painting called A Study of Carlos and Darcey Rehearsing in 2008.

  • CTE Bio Unpeeled
    Cage the Elephant UNPEELED You can’t talk about music in this century without mentioning Cage the Elephant. They are the last of the great bands — or perhaps, based on new album Unpeeled, the first of the great new ones. They trace their nervy, seditious lineage from that same uncompromising place that gave us Between the Buttons-era Stones, the Pixies, the Stone Roses, the Velvet Underground and Iggy Pop. In fact, it was as if Bowling Green, Kentucky’s second-most famous export had been born full-blown and knowing when they first burst out on a stage in the early days of 2006, regurgitated whole out of the music's murky past with their platinum hair, sunglasses and Doc Martens. Mysterious, a little troubled, with an unstudied cool, a reckless charm and the striking looks of the young Yardbirds and the rakish confidence of the early Stones. “We had this picture of what a rock ‘n’ roll band was supposed to be when we started,” says vocalist Matt Shultz, who fronts the sextet comprising brother Brad on rhythm guitar, drummer Jared Champion, bassist Daniel Tichenor, lead guitarist Nick Bockrath and keyboardist Matthan Minster. “In my younger years, I definitely tried to play into personas that often hindered the material’s ability to be truly effective. Then as years passed I started wanting to shed some of that creative baggage.” That might have been the most important lesson the band learned working with Dan Auerbach, who produced Cage’s 2015 Grammy- winning Tell Me I’m Pretty album. He helped them chip away at all the things that stood between them and their songs, uncovering their own raw power.

A chance meeting between 2 old friends at Dartford railway station marked the beginning of 50 years of rock and roll. In the early 1950s, Keith Richards and Mick Jagger were childhood friends and classmates at Wentworth Primary School in Kent until their families moved apart.[8] In 1960, the pair met again on their way to college at Dartford railway station. The Chuck Berry and Muddy Waters records that Jagger carried revealed a mutual interest. They began forming a band with Dick Taylor and Brian Jones from Blues Incorporated. This band also contained two other future members of the Rolling Stones: Ian Stewart and Charlie Watts.[11] So how did the name come about? Well according to Richards, Jones christened the band during a phone call to Jazz News.

  • Aftermath Two Covers One Album Aftermath, Released April 15, 1966 in the UK, Marked the Beginning of the Stones’ Golden Age
    Aftermath Two Covers One Album Aftermath, released April 15, 1966 in the UK, marked the beginning of the Stones’ golden age. They were no longer apprentices playing the songs of Chicago bluesmen. The Stones were creating their own music. This is the story of one musically important album with two different album cover versions. It stands in contrast to the Stones’ earlier trend of using one album cover for two different albums. There is a UK version cover and a US version cover. The art is different but there is more that unites this story than that divides it so the covers are covered together. This is the story of After-Math if you lived in the United Kingdom and of Aftermath if you lived in the United States. It begins with a lengthy but fun diversion into the Stones first movie as a group, for which this album might have been the soundtrack. Heady Times These were heady times for The Rolling Stones. They had just completed their US tour and immediately began to record for their next album. They had been living life in a goldfish bowl where they were being fawned over, pandered to and thrust into a position to order anything on room service that would temporarily sate any pleasure or perversion. The Stones were working the touring and recording circuits hard while manager Andrew Loog Oldham worked all the promotion angles. One of those promotional angles had, since 1964, promised the Stones were coming to the silver screen. The backstory begins in 1964, this is, after all, an aftermath story, so we need to know the aftermath of what? Oldham was taken by Anthony Burgess’ 1962 novel A Clockwork Orange and he had adopted Burgess’s style of writing in his rambling sleeve notes on previous albums.
