Janis Joplin, the Queen of Psychedelic Soul I. the Target Janis Joplin, The Queen of Psychedelic Soul I. The target audience for these two radio spots are Joplin lovers who once saw her or were immersed in the same music movement of the 1960s. These are both men and women who are now in their late 50s and 60s, who were alive to experience the 1960s firsthand. They are now parents, living in the suburbs with their children and still listen to classic rock and rock ‘n’ roll from their time because they do not like the music of their children’s generation. II. The most important radio stations to broadcast in the tri-state area are stations that play rock ‘n’ roll and oldies. Three prime examples of radio stations would include 103.1, which this station particular focuses on oldies, occasionally having ‘themed’ broadcasts that run for hours such as The Beatles weekend, 104.3, which plays only classic rock, therefore a perfect station, and 105.5 which also plays rock. The target audience in the tri-state area that are being targeting are listening mostly to these stations. The goal of both spots is to evoke a sense of nostalgia and to relieve their youth one last time. The ads are also meant to persuade people into thinking they are taking part of this monumental event. A) Metaphor Daughter: C’mon Mom! Woman: I said no! Daughter: But Mom, it’s Janis Joplin! IN concert! Woman: You’re not going to her concert, and that’s final! I’ve had enough of this hippie nonsense! VO: That was over 40 years ago. When you had to obey your parents. When you had no say. When you missed the Queen of Psychedelic Soul perform on stage. What if you could turn back time and see Joplin perform that night? What if we told you you didn’t have to go back in time, but go forward? SFX (in background): “Me & Bobby McGee” Daughter 2: Mom guess what! Janis Joplin! She’s playing on April 18th at 10pm at Madison Square Garden! Didn’t you see her when you were younger? Mom: No, my mother didn’t let me go. She called it ‘hippie nonsense.’ Daughter 2: But her music is so amaZing. And here’s your chance to actually see her! Can we go, mom, please!? Mom: I wouldn’t have it any other way. VO: Janis Joplin-one night only at Madison Square Garden on April 18th at 10pm. Cherish the past with the Queen of Psychedelic Soul and make new memories with the ones you love with this monumental performance by the woman who rocked the 60s. Janis Joplin at Madison Square Garden. Tickets available at Ticketmaster.com. B) Fact VO: She was a painter, a dancer, a music arranger. She was the star of Monterey Pop Festival and one of the main attractions of the revolutionary Woodstock Music Festival in 1969. She was the voice of a generation. A leader of a movement. SFX: Snippets of “Piece of My Heart” VO: Janis Joplin. Returning to perform for one night only. Relive the 1960s, the revolution, and a generation that changed the world of music forever. SFX: “Summertime” VO: The Queen of Psychedelic Soul, Janis Joplin, will take to the stages of Madison Square Garden on April 18th at 10pm to perform her memorable psychedelic- rock songs that once shook the world. SFX: “Mercedes Benz” Ranked her number 46 on its list of 100 Greatest Artists of All by Rolling Stone magaZine and gaining induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995, Joplin is back to rock things again, one last time. See Joplin live for one night only! Tickets are available at Ticketmaster.com SFX: Fade out with “Me & Bobby McGee” .

  • “My Girl”—The Temptations (1964) Added to the National Registry: 2017 Essay by Mark Ribowsky (Guest Post)*
    “My Girl”—The Temptations (1964) Added to the National Registry: 2017 Essay by Mark Ribowsky (guest post)* The Temptations, c. 1964 The Temptations’ 1964 recording of “My Girl” came at a critical confluence for the group, the Motown label, and a culture roiling with the first waves of the British invasion of popular music. The five-man cell of disparate souls, later to be codified by black disc jockeys as the “tall, tan, talented, titillating, tempting Temptations,” had been knocking around Motown’s corridors and studio for three years, cutting six failed singles before finally scoring on the charts that year with Smokey Robinson’s cleverly spunky “The Way You Do the Things You Do” that winter. It rose to number 11 on the pop chart and to the top of the R&B chart, an important marker on the music landscape altered by the Beatles’ conquest of America that year. Having Smokey to guide them was incalculably advantageous. Berry Gordy, the former street hustler who had founded Motown as a conduit for Detroit’s inner-city voices in 1959, invested a lot of trust in the baby-faced Robinson, who as front man of the Miracles delivered the company’s seminal number one R&B hit and million-selling single, “Shop Around.” Four years later, in 1964, he wrote and produced Mary Wells’ “My Guy,” Motown’s second number one pop hit. Gordy conquered the black urban market but craved the broader white pop audience. The Temptations were riders on that train. Formed in 1959 by Otis Williams, a leather-jacketed street singer, their original lineup consisted of Williams, Elbridge “Al” Bryant, bass singer Melvin Franklin and tenors Eddie Kendricks and Paul Williams.

  • Outsiders' Music: Progressive Country, Reggae
    CHAPTER TWELVE: OUTSIDERS’ MUSIC: PROGRESSIVE COUNTRY, REGGAE, SALSA, PUNK, FUNK, AND RAP, 1970s Chapter Outline I. The Outlaws: Progressive Country Music A. During the late 1960s and early 1970s, mainstream country music was dominated by: 1. the slick Nashville sound, 2. hardcore country (Merle Haggard), and 3. blends of country and pop promoted on AM radio. B. A new generation of country artists was embracing music and attitudes that grew out of the 1960s counterculture; this movement was called progressive country. 1. Inspired by honky-tonk and rockabilly mix of Bakersfield country music, singer-songwriters (Bob Dylan), and country rock (Gram Parsons) 2. Progressive country performers wrote songs that were more intellectual and liberal in outlook than their contemporaries’ songs. 3. Artists were more concerned with testing the limits of the country music tradition than with scoring hits. 4. The movement’s key artists included CHAPTER TWELVE: OUTSIDERS’ MUSIC: PROGRESSIVE COUNTRY, REGGAE, SALSA, PUNK, FUNK, AND RAP, 1970s a) Willie Nelson, b) Kris Kristopherson, c) Tom T. Hall, and d) Townes Van Zandt. 5. These artists were not polished singers by conventional standards, but they wrote distinctive, individualist songs and had compelling voices. 6. They developed a cult following, and progressive country began to inch its way into the mainstream (usually in the form of cover versions). a) “Harper Valley PTA” (1) Original by Tom T. Hall (2) Cover version by Jeannie C. Riley; Number One pop and country (1968) b) “Help Me Make It through the Night” (1) Original by Kris Kristofferson (2) Cover version by Sammi Smith (1971) C.

During this time, songs like "Dancing in the Street" and "What's Going On?" targeted social issues in America and created a voice for African-American people through their messages. Events like the Mississippi Freedom Summer and Bloody Thursday inspired the artists at Motown to create these songs. Influenced by the cultural and social circumstances of the Civil Rights Movement, the musical output of Motown Records between 1959 and 1972 evolved from a sole focus on entertainment in popular culture to a focus on motivating social change through music.

  • Mark Fisher Goldsmiths, University of London / University of East London (UK)
    The Metaphysics of Crackle: Afrofuturism and Hauntology Feature Article Mark Fisher Goldsmiths, University of London / University of East London (UK) Abstract There has always been an intrinsically “hauntological” dimension to recorded music. But Derrida’s concept of hauntology has gained a new currency in the 21st century, when music has lost its sense of futurism, and succumbed to the pastiche- and retro- time of postmodernity. The emergence of a 21st century sonic hauntology is a sign that “white” culture can no longer escape the temporal disjunctions that have been constitutive of the Afrodiasporic experience since Africans were first abducted by slavers and projected from their own lifeworld into the abstract space-time of Capital. Time was always-already out of joint for the slave, and Afrofuturism and hauntology can now be heard as two versions of the same condition. Keywords: Hauntology, Afrofuturism, dub, phonography, rockism Mark Fisher is the author of Capitalist Realism (2009) and the forthcoming Ghosts Of My Life: Writings on Depression, Hauntology and Lost Futures. His writing has appeared in many publications, including The Wire, Frieze, The Guardian and Film Quarterly. He is Programme Leader of the MA in Aural and Visual Cultures at Goldsmiths, University of London and a lecturer at the University of East London.

  • MUSIC 351. the Music of Motown Fall 2012, Tth 12:30–1:45 P.M., M-113
    MUSIC 351. The Music of Motown Fall 2012, TTh 12:30–1:45 p.m., M-113 Instructor: Maya Ginsberg ([email protected], 619.800.8389) M-256, office hours: TTH 9:30–10:30 a.m. This is a lecture class that surveys the music of the Motown Record Corporation, established in 1959 by Berry Gordy Jr. in Detroit, Michigan. By incorporating elements of jazz, gospel, and rhythm and blues, the creative minds and artists of Motown produced music that achieved “crossover” success, playing a significant role in the racial integration of popular music. This course examines the music, creative processes, technology, business practices, and the artists of Motown from the founding of the company in 1959 until the early1970s. Students in this class will examine the music and lyrics of a selection of representative songs by The Supremes, The Temptations, The Four Tops, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, and other Motown artists, including the studio musicians known as the Funk Brothers. The processes in creating these songs—including the role of the producer, engineer, and studio musicians—will also be examined. Through readings, students will learn about the business practices of Motown and also gain insight into social structures and the cultural environment that influenced and was influenced by the music of Motown. Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to: identify musical works and specific musical features of the music of Motown; place the music of Motown into a broader context of the history of American popular music; discuss how business practices relate to artistic enterprises; assess the relationship between popular music and culture; and discuss how social and cultural events influence and may be influenced by popular music.

  • Political Commentary in Black Popular Music from Rhythm and Blues to Early Hip Hop
    MESSAGE IN THE MUSIC: POLITICAL COMMENTARY IN BLACK POPULAR MUSIC FROM RHYTHM AND BLUES TO EARLY HIP HOP James B. Stewart "Music is a powerful tool in the form of communication [that] can be used to assist in organizing communities." Gil Scott-Heron (1979) This essay examines the content of political commentaries in the lyrics of Rhythm and Blues (R & B) songs. It utilizes a broad definition of R & B that includes sub-genres such as Funk and "Psychedelic Soul." The investigation is intended, in part, to address persisting misinterpretations of the manner in which R & B influenced listeners' political engagement during the Civil Rights- Black Power Movement. The content of the messages in R & B lyrics is deconstructed to enable a fuller appreciation of how the creativity and imagery associated with the lyrics facilitated listeners' personal and collective political awareness and engagement. The broader objective of the essay is to establish a foundation for understanding the historical precedents and political implications of the music and lyrics of Hip Hop. For present purposes, political commentary is understood to consist of explicit or implicit descriptions or assessments of the social, economic, and political conditions of people of African descent, as well as the forces creating these conditions. These criteria deliberately exclude most R & B compositions because the vast majority of songs in this genre, similar to the Blues, focus on some aspect of male-female relationships.' This is not meant to imply that music examining male-female relationships is devoid of political implications; however, attention is restricted here to lyrics that address directly the relationship of African Americans to the larger American body politic.
