Like so many, Cassie moved to NC for school and is now a Tarheel for life. Art Jolin Art is a retired software developer (and current wood/metal/glass/ceramic craftsman) who has been involved with amateur theater since high school; in fact, he started dating his wife of 44 years when she directed him in the junior class play. He has been in several OdysseyStage productions as well as other local theater. Art also directs and proposed the idea of a series of audio-only radio plays (which his fellow actors enthusiastically supported with their talents) to complement the live-performance shows OdysseyStage also promotes; he does the sound effects & editing of these shows. Art also sings, both solo (accompanying himself on guitar) and in choral ensembles. He is deeply grateful to his outstanding cast..

  • Young Americans to Emotional Rescue: Selected Meetings
    YOUNG AMERICANS TO EMOTIONAL RESCUE: SELECTING MEETINGS BETWEEN DISCO AND ROCK, 1975-1980 Daniel Kavka A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC August 2010 Committee: Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Katherine Meizel © 2010 Daniel Kavka All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Disco-rock, composed of disco-influenced recordings by rock artists, was a sub-genre of both disco and rock in the 1970s. Seminal recordings included: David Bowie’s Young Americans; The Rolling Stones’ “Hot Stuff,” “Miss You,” “Dance Pt.1,” and “Emotional Rescue”; KISS’s “Strutter ’78,” and “I Was Made For Lovin’ You”; Rod Stewart’s “Do Ya Think I’m Sexy“; and Elton John’s Thom Bell Sessions and Victim of Love. Though disco-rock was a great commercial success during the disco era, it has received limited acknowledgement in post-disco scholarship. This thesis addresses the lack of existing scholarship pertaining to disco-rock. It examines both disco and disco-rock as products of cultural shifts during the 1970s. Disco was linked to the emergence of underground dance clubs in New York City, while disco-rock resulted from the increased mainstream visibility of disco culture during the mid seventies, as well as rock musicians’ exposure to disco music. My thesis argues for the study of a genre (disco-rock) that has been dismissed as inauthentic and commercial, a trend common to popular music discourse, and one that is linked to previous debates regarding the social value of pop music.

  • Peter Gabriel Non Scherzate Con Le Scimmie... Anselmo Patacchini
    Peter Gabriel Non scherzate con le scimmie... Anselmo Patacchini Peter preferisce plasmare lentamente le proprie creazioni, magari coinvolgendo alcuni amici di vecchia data (Collins, Rutherford e il redivivo Phillips) per ricreare un ambiente familiare nel quale provare la bontà del nuovo materiale e registrare demo casalinghi. Ospite fisso di queste prove è anche il poeta inglese Martin Hall. Ora, Gabriel tenta di mettere in piedi una coppia creativa, alla maniera di Elton John e Bernie Taupin, con una rigida suddivisione dei ruoli fra gli autori della musica e delle parole. All’inizio la joint-venture sembra funzionare, con più di venti canzoni composte dal duo. Una di queste, You Never Know, interpretata da Charlie Drake e pubblicata su singolo nel 1975, appartiene alla stessa vena ludica di Willow Farm, tanto più che la stridula voce dell’anziano comico inglese è sorprendentemente simile a quella del Gabriel più caricato e teatrale. Il disco passa inosservato nonostante la presenza di un certo Robert Fripp alla chitarra e di Keith “... Inganna la volpe, tradisci il topo, puoi Il celebre New Musical Express nel Tippet alle tastiere. luglio 1975 cominciò a diffondere Passa un anno, e mentre i Genesis scimmiottare la scimmia...” sospetti sul distacco del frontman spopolano con il rassicurante dei Genesis, prontamente rintuzzati progressive di A Trick Of The Tail, Peter Gabriel dalla casa discografica Charisma fino l’unico segnale di vita proveniente all’agosto dello stesso anno, quando dal pianeta-Gabriel è la tremolante Shock The Monkey i componenti del gruppo rivelarono rivisitazione di un classico, l’avvenuta fuoriuscita.

    download europe full album The Final Countdown (Expanded Edition) Purchase and download this album in a wide variety of formats depending on your needs. Buy the album Starting at £10.49. One of the most glorious launches in history, the title track for the thrice-platinum The Final Countdown is so bombastically brilliant, such glorious garbage, that this nuclear hair assault could only spew from the vacuous '80s. But the full-tilt follow-up "Rock the Night" rules also: "You know it ain't easy/Running out of thrills." "Carrie" comes off a consummate butane ballad. Meanwhile, the rest of the disc packs so much power that Swedish superheroes Europe get away with all the processed pretension. In fact, the lofty ambition of "Danger on the Track," "Ninja," and "Cherokee" (each as tasty as its title) combines with heated drive and hot delivery to meld The Final Countdown into a unique portrait of propulsive prog and a worthy addition to any hard rock collection. This is the story; this is the legend told by Teutonic guitars and predictable keyboards ringing pure and hurtling through each and every convention perfectly. The quintet's big-boy Epic inaugural, The Final Countdown deftly combines the Valhalla victory of Europe's heroic debut with the American poodle pomposity that devoured the band. You could live without The Final Countdown, but why? © Doug Stone /TiVo. Europe (2) Hair / Glam Metal (Heavy Metal) band from Upplands Väsby, Stockholm, (Sweden). Europe formed in 1979. The band rose to international fame in the 1980s with its third album, 1986's The Final Countdown, which sold over three million copies in the United States.

  • Molding a Contemporary Soul: the Empty-Full of Lygia Clark Suely Rolnik
    1 Molding a Contemporary Soul: The Empty-Full of Lygia Clark Suely Rolnik “Literature (cf. art) thus appears as an undertaking of health: not that the writer (cf. the artist) necessarily has a strong constitution (…), but he enjoys a fragile irresistible health, which comes from the fact of having seen and heard things that are too big for him, too strong, unbreathable, whose passing exhausts him, but nevertheless permits him becomings that fat, dominating health would make impossible. (…) What kind of health would be enough to free life wherever it is imprisoned by man and in man?” Gilles Deleuze1 Lygia Clark is the name of an existence convulsed by the eruption of an idea that gradually took shape throughout the totality of a unique oeuvre. Being elaborated step by step from the 1950s to the 1980s, this idea situated itself on the horizon of one of the most insistent issues facing modern art–that of reconnecting art and life–as an original answer with the power to carry this project toward its very limit. This is probably why Brazilian and international culture of that time did not assimilate the artist’s work, not even half of it, especially during the period beginning with Caminhando (Walking, 1963). Some eleven years after her death this assimilation is only starting to take shape. From this seminal work emerged a path in which the idea that propelled Clark presented itself in all its radicality and took on a vitality that would remain indefatigable until her final work, Estruturação do self, (Structuring the Self) produced through her Objetos Relacionais (Relational Objects, 1976-88).

  • Jazzlike Riffs
    Ken Thomson www.ktonline.net “The hardest-working saxophonist in new-music show business.” - Time Out NY “Mr. Thomson's compositions are intricately wrought and incident- steeped, even when they move in snowlike drifts. The gutsy precision of the playing calls for hearing this music in a performance setting.” - Nate Chinen, The New York Times, on It Would Be Easier If CD Naomi White 2013 “a virtuoso piece… a texture laced with power chords, screaming clarinet lines and cluster-laden piano writing. In the end it is sheer madness, in a good, thrillingly visceral way.” - Allan Kozinn, The New York Times, on “seasonal.disorder” for Bang on a Can All-Stars “Thomson's ‘Wait Your Turn’ is as visceral as music can be: While some composers struggle to give an orchestra rhythmic life, Thomson gave the orchestra jazzlike riffs. He also knows how to create tension with escalating chromatic lines, or to give himself and his punk/jazz group, named Gutbucket, a forum for its own showcase moments.” - David Patrick Stearns, Philadelphia Inquirer, on “Wait Your Turn” “Thomson’s original compositions are as complex as a beehive, filled with amber-hued nooks and crannies that bear traces of jazz, world music, and classical, without succumbing to any of them.” - Silke Tudor, San Francisco Weekly “a delightful affirmation that counterpoint is still very much with us and can still be powerfully relevant to musical expression.” - Stephen Smoliar, San Francisco Examiner, on “Deafening Irrelevance” "...an impressive amalgam of influences, ideas and inventiveness.... exciting and at times mesmerizing." - Bruce Lindsay, All About Jazz on It Would Be Easier If CD “Thomsonʼs intuition and compositional prowess comes to the fore—his uncanny sense of musical architecture, pacing, and interestingly, portion size.

The Bends, just because none of its cuts have exploded onto radio and MTV Dwith the ferocity of "Creep." That single, from the band's 1993 debut. Pablo Honey, was a charming bit of self-loathing, but rather lonely MITCH for company on a so-so album. The Bends is ten times the record, an exhilarating blast of WOODS noise and melody from start to finish. The band's versatility is staggering, encompassing everything from noisy rage-guitar chaos to am- bient soundscapes and poignant acoustic guitar strummings. Throughout, singer Thorn Yorke takes musical and emotional chances galore. "You can force it but it will not come/You can taste it but it will not form/You can crush it but it's always here/You can crush it but it's al- ways near/Chasing you home/Saying every- thing is broken," he wails, in the album-open- ing rocker "Planet Telex." More alienated role- playing, you say? Yes. but the ferocity of the band and Yorke's melodic derring-do put to rest all questions of sincerity.
