    LOOKING FORWARD TO THE PAST: BAROQUE ROCK’S POSTMODERN NOSTALGIA AND THE POLITICS OF MEMORY by Sara Gulgas BA Music History and Literature, Youngstown State University, 2011 MA Popular Music Studies, University of Liverpool, 2012 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Musicology University of Pittsburgh 2017 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH DIETRICH SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES This dissertation was presented by Sara Gulgas It was defended on February 16, 2017 and approved by Dr. Deane L. Root, University of Pittsburgh, Music Dr. Emily Zazulia, University of California Berkeley, Music Dr. Joyce Bell, University of Minnesota, Sociology Dissertation Director: James P. Cassaro, University of Pittsburgh, Music ii Copyright © by Sara Gulgas 2017 iii LOOKING FORWARD TO THE PAST: BAROQUE ROCK’S POSTMODERN NOSTALGIA AND THE POLITICS OF MEMORY Sara Gulgas, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2017 In the mid-1960s, baroque rock music blended the sound of string quartets, harpsichord ostinatos, and contrapuntal techniques with rock instrumentation. This contemporary representation of the distant past presents an ironic anachronism that is humorous in its novel affect while allowing this dissonance to alert the listener about constructions of memory and the perception of time. Some of the biggest names in rock and roll were influenced by the Early Music revival but took a non-linear approach to history rather than undertaking “historically informed performance.” They cultivated what I call postmodern nostalgia: a symptom of crisis and progress that is simultaneously reflexive in its detached interpretation of history and imagined in its participants’ ability to reference a past they have not themselves experienced.

Released: March 6, 1970 in UK Weeks on chart: 9: March 14 to May 15, 1970 Highest chart position: 2 Released: March 11, 1970 in USA Highest chart position: 1 RIAA Gold Single award: March 17, 1970 The record label incorrectly listed the b-side title as You Know My Name (Look Up 'My' Number). As in the U.K. release, Let it Be is in stereo while You Know My Name (Look Up the Number) is in mono The Beatles - Across The Universe - Let It Be (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John Prior to leaving for an extended trip to India to study Transcendental Meditation in early 1968, the Beatles recorded several new songs to fill the sides of their upcoming single, which would be released while they were away. John had originally wanted his new composition, “Across The Universe,” for the A-side of the single but was still not happy with the mix of the song. When the Beatles sat down to decide which two of their new recordings should be used, John preferred “Across the Universe” remain on the shelf for the time being, giving Paul’s more commercial “Lady Madonna” the A-side. “Across The Universe” was written entirely by John and was recorded February 4, 1968, in eight takes. Overdubs were recorded on February 8. Comedian and author Spike Milligan had been at Abbey Road when the group was working on the song and some months later inquired about it.

    1 PLAYLIST FEB. 17TH 2013 A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT EDITION OF BWTB… The songs you love… just slightly different. 9AM 1 2 The Beatles - I'm So Tired - The Beatles sessions Recorded Oct. 8th 1968 Written in India when John couldn’t sleep, tired from all that meditating during the day. One of John’s personal favorites. Musicians: John Lennon – lead vocal, acoustic guitar, lead guitar, organ; Paul McCartney – harmony vocal, bass guitar; George Harrison – lead guitar; Ringo Starr – drums John wrote this in India. Apparently he’d been meditating too much and was having trouble sleeping at night – hence the title. And there’s a little line for Yoko: My mind is set on you. (They weren’t actually an item at this point, but Yoko had been sending him flirty little letters every day.) There’s also a strange little dig at Walter Raleigh (maybe because he introduced tobacco to England?). Lead Vocal John Lennon 1.00 The Beatles - You Never Give Me Your Money - Abbey Road sessions (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: Paul The famous “Abbey Road” medley begins with Paul’s “You Never Give Me Your Money,” a song which itself consists of three segments. In Barry Miles’ “Many Years From Now,” McCartney states that the first part of the song was him “directly lambasting Allen Klein’s attitude to us: no money, just funny paper, all promises and it never works out. It’s basically a song about no faith in the person.” The reference to “funny paper” was the numerous bank statements and other official looking documents that claimed they had stocks and bonds or money in various bank accounts, but to the band members it always seemed imaginary; they were rich on paper.

    1 1 2 A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT EDITION OF BWTB (Vol. #9) The songs you love… Just slightly different…yup everyone of `em! Hour I The Beatles – Good Morning Good Morning - Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band Alt. Stereo MIX. Recorded Feb. 8th 1967 2 3 Based on a Cornflakes TV commercial John heard while sitting at the piano and feeling a bit “stuck” trying to write something for Sgt. Pepper. Paul plays one of the guitar solos w/ his right-handed Fender Esquire. Musicians: John Lennon – double-tracked lead vocal, rhythm guitar; Paul McCartney – backing vocal, lead guitar, bass guitar; George Harrison – backing vocal, lead guitar; Ringo Starr – drums, tambourine; Barrie Cameron, David Glyde and Alan Holmes – saxophones; John Lee and another unknown player – trombones; Unknown player (Tom someone) – French horn The title came from a Kellogg’s Corn Flakes TV commercial, and the lyric contains a reference to the sixties sitcom Meet The Wife, starring Thora Hird and Freddie Frinton. The episode that John watched was on the 12th December ‘66, and was called This Christmas, Shop Early, and was about Thora Hird’s frantic attempts to get some last- minute shopping done, which is where the lines People running round, it’s five o’clock/Everywhere in town is getting dark/Everyone you see is full of life/It’s time for tea and Meet The Wife came from. George Martin said: It was an ironic, not to say sarcastic look at the suburban life-style. It’s lyric made sharp little digs at the whole suburban deal: ‘Everybody knows there’s nothing doing/Everything is closed it’s like a ruin/Everyone you see is half asleep/I’ve got nothing to say but it’s okay…’ That just about summed up how he felt about his way of life at that time.
