    PACKAGED WRIGHT Michelle Wright's image consultants helped her get Nashville's attention. Now if they could only find her a hit... By David Hayes, Saturday Night, June 1995 Gently downshifting her brand-new black Mercedes E420 sedan, Michelle Wright eases off I-65 South at the Franklin exit and drives past fast-food outlets and rolling fields while a country station plays on the radio. When you've made it in country music, you live in Franklin, a tidy suburb forty minutes from Nashville's Music Row where stars such as Dolly Parton and Wynonna Judd own mansions and estates. It's also where Wright, Canada's top female country singer, recently bought a five-bedroom home, although hers is one of many lookalikes in a newly built, middle-class subdivision. Still, both the car -- which recently replaced her clunky old Ford Escort -- and the house are material symbols of Wright's progress in the country-music major leagues, a far cry from the life of a struggling newcomer. At her house, Wright disappears into her bedroom while her longtime manager, Brian Ferriman, and her image consultant, Joan Lacey, make themselves comfortable in the bright, high-ceilinged living room. The plan is to model several possible outfits for the upcoming Juno Awards, where Wright is both a presenter and a nominee. Considering how often she has been away on tour since the fall, it's not surprising Wright's house feels barely lived in, as though the interior designer arranged the furniture and hung the prints yesterday. A homey touch is provided by Wright's four cats, who pad matter-of-factly across the white broadloom.

Los Angeles, CA: The state of Oklahoma has a rich songwriting and performing tradition, and nowhere is that more apparent than on the down-home, roots-rocking Mad Dogs & Okies. This superb 15-song CD, in stores August 30, features a host of A-list artists, some of whom have their roots in Oklahoma, others who found inspiration in the great Mid-west state, nearly all of whom perform songs written by native “Okies.” Take Eric Clapton, for example, who has worked and recorded extensively with Oklahoma musicians throughout his career, including Delaney and Bonnie, Leon Russell, and J.J. Cale (who wrote “After Midnight” and “Cocaine”). Vince Gill was born and raised in Norman, while Wylie Hunt grew up in Tulsa, OK. And, Taj Mahal’s first band, The Rising Sons, was made up almost entirely of Oklahoma musicians.

  • Music Genres and Corporate Cultures
    Music Genres and Corporate Cultures Music Genres and Corporate Cultures explores the workings of the music industry, tracing the often uneasy relationship between entertainment cor- porations and the artists they sign. Keith Negus examines the contrasting strategies of major labels like Sony and Universal in managing different genres, artists and staff, and assesses the various myths of corporate cul- ture. How do takeovers affect the treatment of artists? Why was Poly- Gram perceived as too European to attract US artists? Why and how did EMI Records attempt to change their corporate culture? Through a study of three major genres—rap, country and salsa—Negus investigates why the music industry recognises and rewards certain sounds, and how this influences both the creativity of musicians and their audiences. He explores why some artists get international promotion while others are neglected, and how performers are packaged as ‘world music’. Negus examines the tension between rap’s image as a spontaneous ‘music of the streets’ and the practicalities of the market, asks why execu- tives from New York feel uncomfortable when they visit the country music business in Nashville, and explains why the lack of soundscan sys- tems in Puerto Rican record shops affects salsa’s position on the US Bill- board chart. Drawing on extensive research and interviews with music industry per- sonnel in Britain, the United States and Japan, Music Genres and Corpo- rate Cultures shows how the creation, circulation and consumption of popular music is shaped by record companies and corporate business style while stressing that music production takes place within a broader cul- ture, not totally within the control of large corporations.

Moore ALL RIGHTS RESERVED PLAYING IN THE DIRT: STILLWATER AND THE EMERGENCE OF RED DIRT MUSIC Thesis Approved: Dr. William Bryans Thesis Adviser Dr. Michael Logan Dr. L.G. Moses Mr. Wayne Bovenschen Dr. Mark E. Payton Dean of the Graduate College iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS It is a pleasure to thank the many people who made this thesis possible. First I would like to express my gratitude to Jay Falkner for introducing me to Red Dirt music in 1998 by playing Jimmy LaFave’s album Austin Skyline and for subsequently involving me in his many bands. Without the contacts made from working with Marshallcity and South 40, I would have been unable to begin this project. It is difficult to overstate my gratitude to John Cooper and Brad Piccolo of the Red Dirt Rangers. Their willingness to share their experiences and contact others in the Red Dirt community to get their assistance has been a true blessing. I am indebted to my advisor, Dr. Bill Bryans for his willingness to work with me on a popular history topic. His efforts to explain things clearly and simply were of great value during course work and during my thesis-writing period. I would also like to thank Dr.

  • JJ Cale the Silent Master a Dreamlike Ride Through The
    About this English translation: The book was written in German; my mother tongue, it is the only language I know as a writer, with all nuances. My story about J.J. Cale's music and his artistic career would of course have deserved a professional English translation - but unfortunately, as an independent musician and author, I really lack the necessary money for this. That's why I translated the book here for you with deepl.com - it is currently the best online translator worldwide. I have additionally enhanced the Deepl-translation, but my English is limited - the subtleties of my mother tongue are lost, partly also the humor, and there will be some mistakes in presentation (f.e. with some "-characters) and maybe also grammar errors here and there. So if you have the feeling that certain phrases don't make sense or sound strange - just think "the computer is inferior to humans" - or for my sake "they're crazy, these Swiss guys!" :-) I'm sure you as a J.J. Cale fan will understand and enjoy the story anyway, and maybe here and there you'll learn hitherto unknown details about the wonderful J.J. Cale and his immortal music. Sincerely: Richard Koechli Remember, this is a gift, a free supplement to the CD and the Vinyl-Double-LP "The Real Chill, Remembering J.J. Cale" ...
