  • Steve Cropper | Primary Wave Music
    STEVE CROPPER facebook.com/stevecropper twitter.com/officialcropper Image not found or type unknown youtube.com/channel/UCQk6gXkhbUNnhgXHaARGskg playitsteve.com en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Cropper open.spotify.com/artist/1gLCO8HDtmhp1eWmGcPl8S If Yankee Stadium is “the house that Babe Ruth built,” Stax Records is “the house that Booker T, and the MG’s built.” Integral to that potent combination is MG rhythm guitarist extraordinaire Steve Cropper. As a guitarist, A & R man, engineer, producer, songwriting partner of Otis Redding, Eddie Floyd and a dozen others and founding member of both Booker T. and the MG’s and The Mar-Keys, Cropper was literally involved in virtually every record issued by Stax from the fall of 1961 through year end 1970.Such credits assure Cropper of an honored place in the soul music hall of fame. As co-writer of (Sittin’ On) The Dock Of The Bay, Knock On Wood and In The Midnight Hour, Cropper is in line for immortality. Born on October 21, 1941 on a farm near Dora, Missouri, Steve Cropper moved with his family to Memphis at the age of nine. In Missouri he had been exposed to a wealth of country music and little else. In his adopted home, his thirsty ears amply drank of the fountain of Gospel, R & B and nascent Rock and Roll that thundered over the airwaves of both black and white Memphis radio. Bit by the music bug, Cropper acquired his first mail order guitar at the age of 14. Personal guitar heroes included Tal Farlow, Chuck Berry, Jimmy Reed, Chet Atkins, Lowman Pauling of the Five Royales and Billy Butler of the Bill Doggett band.

  • UNSUNG: South African Jazz Musicians Under Apartheidunsung
    UNSUNG: South African Jazz Musicians under Apartheid outh African jazz under apartheid has in recent years been the subject of numerous studies. The main focus, however, has hitherto been on the musicians who went into exile.

  • Music and Inter-Generational Experiences of Social Change in South Africa
    All Mixed Up: Music and Inter-Generational Experiences of Social Change in South Africa Dominique Santos 22113429 PhD Social Anthropology Goldsmiths, University of London All Mixed Up: Music and Inter-Generational Experiences of Social Change in South Africa Dominique Santos 22113429 Thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for a PhD in Social Anthropology Goldsmiths, University of London 2013 Cover Image: Party Goer Dancing at House Party Brixton, Johannesburg, 2005 (Author’s own) 1 Acknowledgements I owe a massive debt to a number of people and institutions who have made it possible for me to give the time I have to this work, and who have supported and encouraged me throughout. The research and writing of this project was made financially possible through a generous studentship from the ESRC. I also benefitted from the receipt of a completion grant from the Goldsmiths Anthropology Department. Sophie Day took over my supervision at a difficult point, and has patiently assisted me to see the project through to submission. John Hutnyk’s and Sari Wastel’s early supervision guided the incubation of the project. Frances Pine and David Graeber facilitated an inspiring and supportive writing up group to formulate and test ideas. Keith Hart’s reading of earlier sections always provided critical and pragmatic feedback that drove the work forward. Julian Henriques and Isaak Niehaus’s helpful comments during the first Viva made it possible for this version to take shape. Hugh Macnicol and Ali Clark ensured a smooth administrative journey, if the academic one was a little bumpy. Maia Marie read and commented on drafts in the welcoming space of our writing circle, keeping my creative fires burning during dark times.

  • Ons Sal Antwoord Op Jou Roepstem: Steve Hofmeyr and Afrikaner Identity in Post-Apartheid Afrikaans Cinema1
    C Broodryk Ons sal antwoord op jou roepstem: Steve Hofmeyr and Afrikaner identity in post-apartheid Afrikaans cinema1 1 ABSTRACT This article argues that Steve Hofmeyr’s Afrikaner identity, an identity he performs across various media platforms, including a selection of feature length Afrikaans films, is a paradoxical hybrid of Afrikaner exceptionalism and claims to victimhood. The exceptionalism and self-imposed victimhood are engaged in an across-media dialogue, as Steve Hofmeyr’s social media and political activist persona speak to his participation in three Afrikaans language films: Pretville (Korsten, 2012), Platteland (Else, 2011) and Treurgrond (Roodt, 2015). Hofmeyr’s presence foregrounds and exacerbates an already problematic ideological context in which attempts at multiculturalism are rendered moot by the conservatism in these films, especially where land – the farm – is concerned. While Pretville invents a 1950s South African town that fails to correspond to any inhabited reality of that time, Platteland offers an Afrikaans musical-western wherein Hofmeyr dominates as patriarch. Finally, the attempts of Treurgrond at raising farm murder awareness are nullified through casting Hofmeyr as a farmer facing a land claim, given Hofmeyr’s active campaigning against an alleged Boer genocide.2 Chris Broodryk lectures Drama and Film Studies at the Drama Department of the University of Pretoria. He has published and delivered conference papers on contemporary Afrikaans and South African cinema. His research interests include the intersection of psychology and film, and the Digital Humanities. 1 The phrase ons sal antwoord op u roepstem (“we will heed your calling”) is taken from the apartheid-era South African national anthem, “Die Stem”, and reflects both Afrikanerdom’s Christian foundationalism as well as a response to the land, the South African soil, calling out to Afrikaners.

  • Robyn Sassen Under Covers: South Africa's Apartheid Army
    Under Covers: South Africa’s Apartheid Army – an Incubator for Artists’ Books Robyn Sassen South Africa was the pariah of the contemporary western world because of its legalised and enforced racism, between 1948 and 1994. Apartheid touched the lives of all South Africans, explicitly or implicitly. Oppression of the black majority was accomplished in many ways—through legalism and legislation, indoctrination and education. The South African Defence Force (SADF), which between 1961 and 1993 conducted the forced conscription of young white men, is an odd incubator for artists’ books.1 Yet, it is my argument in this paper, that selected work made by five South African artists, which fits the rubric of artist’s book, developed directly out of the artists’ experiences in the army, or their thoughts surrounding the realities of being forced to subscribe to certain political (and racist) values by virtue of their gender and skin colour. The works I will be examining here are Willem Boshoff’s Bangboek (1977-81), Steven Cohen’s Alice in Pretoria (1988) series and the progression of his work from this point, selected pieces from the collaborative oeuvre of Anton Kannemeyer and Conrad Botes, who created Bitterkomix, and Paul Emmanuel’s The Lost Men (Grahamstown) (2004). But, what is an artist’s book? Must it be a paged document with a spine, pagination, a foredge and a colophon? Must its content comprise text? Must it be a unique item, collectable by galleries and upheld as precious? David Paton argues that over the years, the artist’s book has shifted in its defining characteristics from the codex as ‘fixed artifact to that of a work whose existence is contingent on the active engagement of the reader’, thus giving the codex a dynamism previously not credited as possible (Paton 2006:16).2 Each of the artists whose work I examine challenges these notions, exploding an understanding of the artist’s book in a manner which reinvents it, while claiming ownership of it.

  • Reshaping Remembrance ~ Why Have a Ghost As a Leader? the ‘De La Rey’ Phenomenon and the Re-Invention of Memories, 2006-2007
    Reshaping Remembrance ~ Why Have A Ghost As A Leader? The ‘De la Rey’ Phenomenon And The Re-Invention of Memories, 2006-2007 1. In an altogether unusual way, a dimension of the South African War of more than hundred years ago came to knock on the door of Afrikanerdom in 2006 and 2007, in the form of a popular song entitled ‘De la Rey’, and sung by Louis Pepler under the stage name Bok van Blerk. The song is about the exploits of the Boers during the war under the charismatic leadership of General Jacobus Hendrik (Koos) de la Rey. At the time of the centenary of the South African War in 1999-2002 there was little sign of mobilisation around bygone military events; in fact, the Afrikaners’ commemoration of the war was characterised by contemplative reflection rather than by an emotional reliving of the past.[i] However, four years later ‘De la Rey’ struck gold. Within less than a year Bok van Blerk sold the unequalled number of 200 000 CDs – an exceptional achievement in a relatively limited market. Moreover, his concerts were packed with enthusiastic fans, from the rural areas in South Africa to as far afield as America, Canada, the Netherlands and New Zealand.[ii] For many fans the concerts were an emotional issue. Some teenagers were totally carried away: with closed eyes and hand to the heart they almost went into a trance on hearing the first chords of De la Rey. Among the enthusiastic crowds were those who regard the song as nothing less than a new national anthem.[iii] Moreover, this song did not appeal to the youth only.
