  • Multimillion-Selling Singer Crystal Gayle Has Performed Songs from a Wide Variety of Genres During Her Award-Studded Career, B
    MultiMillion-selling singer Crystal Gayle has performed songs from a wide variety of genres during her award-studded career, but she has never devoted an album to classic country music. Until now. You Don’t Know Me​ is a collection that finds the acclaimed stylist exploring the songs of such country legends as George Jones, Patsy Cline, Buck Owens and Eddy Arnold. The album might come as a surprise to those who associate Crystal with an uptown sound that made her a star on both country and adult-contemporary pop charts. But she has known this repertoire of hardcore country standards all her life. “This wasn’t a stretch at all,” says Crystal. “These are songs I grew up singing. I’ve been wanting to do this for a long time. “The songs on this album aren’t songs I sing in my concerts until recently. But they are very much a part of my history.” Each of the selections was chosen because it played a role in her musical development. Two of them point to the importance that her family had in bringing her to fame. You Don’t Know Me contains the first recorded trio vocal performance by Crystal with her singing sisters Loretta Lynn and Peggy Sue. It is their version of Dolly Parton’s “Put It Off Until Tomorrow.” “You Never Were Mine” comes from the pen of her older brother, Jay Lee Webb (1937-1996). The two were always close. Jay Lee was the oldest brother still living with the family when their father passed away.

  • BRENDA LEE by Tamela Meredith Partridge “Herald & Review” Newspaper Decatur, IL
    BRENDA LEE by Tamela Meredith Partridge “Herald & Review” newspaper Decatur, IL. © 2003 Country Music Hall Of Famer, Brenda Lee, will bring her vibrant vocals to Nashville North USA on Saturday, November 20 at 5 p.m. and again at 8:00 p.m. Tickets are $23.50 and avail- able through the Nashville North USA box office or by calling 287-2103. Country and pop star Brenda Lee has been rockin’ music fans around the world for over four decades with such chart- topping hits as,“Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree,” “I’m Sorry,” “The Crying Game,” “Nobody Wins” and “Big Four Poster Bed.” “I loved every song I ever recorded,” Brenda Lee said during a recent phone interview. “If I had not, I could not have sung them.” The songstress was born Brenda Mae Tarpley, the second of four children to parents Ruben and Grayce, in a Atlanta, Georgia hospital charity ward. Destined to sing her way out of an impoverished childhood, the young vocalist was first introduced to the music business at age five when she won first place at a local talent show with a touching rendition of “Take Me Out To The Ballgame.” Her father, a carpenter and semi-professional baseball player, was killed in a construc- tion accident when Brenda was only eight years old. In order to support the family, her mother went to work in a cotton mill while Brenda began singing to supplement the family income. Launching her professional singing career at age eleven on entertainer Red Foley’s popular weekly television show, “Ozark Jubilee,” provided a recording contract and financial relief for the struggling family.

  • Whiteness, Femininity, Adolescence and Class in 1960S Music
    Laurie Stras, ed. 2010. She's So Fine: Reflections on Whiteness, Femininity, Adolescence and Class in 1960s Music. Surrey, UK, and Burlington, VT: Ashgate Publishing. Reviewed by Sayo Yamagata Laurie Stras's edited volume She's So Fine: Reflections on Whiteness, Femininity, Adolescence and Class in 1960s Music is a welcome addition to the recent scholarship on music by female musicians of the 1960s that attends to the complexity of the women and girls who performed and listened to this music in the United States and the United Kingdom. So unexplored is this area of inquiry from a musicological standpoint that, in her introduc­ tion, Stras appropriately envisions She's So Fine to be the "beginning of a re-evaluation-with emphasis on value-of the very premises of 1950s and 1960s pop" (23). By extension, Stras's ambitions for the book not only necessitate an interrogation of the merits of the popular music canon, but also call for a reconsideration of the standard criteria for assigning and naturalizing value wherever it calcifies. The pop music of women musicians in the 1960s has, critically and in general popular thought, been denigrated for its polish and mass appeal. Celebrated volumes on rock history such as The Rolling Stone Encyclopedia of Rock and Roll, (2001) or Robert Palmer's Rock and Roll: An Unruly History (1995) have participated in the dismissal of girl groups by credit­ ing their success to the complex labor force of producers and song-writers "behind" the musicians. Stras observes that "Pop and its attendant girl­ space, with their alleged emphasis on conformity and concomitant lack of authenticity, have been noted as a phenomenon, but one that always seems to operate as a foil to prove rock's ultimate superior cultural worth" (22).
