  • Selective Tradition and Structure of Feeling in the 2008 Presidential Election: a Genealogy of “Yes We Can Can”
    Selective Tradition and Structure of Feeling in the 2008 Presidential Election: A Genealogy of “Yes We Can Can” BRUCE CURTIS Abstract I examine Raymond Williams’s concepts “structure of feeling” and “selective tradition” in an engagement with the novel technical-musical-cultural politics of the 2008 Barack Obama presidential election campaign. Williams hoped structure of feeling could be used to reveal the existence of pre-emergent, counter-hegemonic cultural forces, forces marginalized through selective tradition. In a genealogy of the Allen Toussaint composition, “Yes We Can Can,” which echoed a key campaign slogan and chant, I detail Toussaint’s ambiguous role in the gentrification of music and dance that descended from New Orleans’s commerce in pleasure. I show that pleasure commerce and struggles against racial segregation were intimately connected. I argue that Toussaint defanged rough subaltern music, but he also promoted a shift in the denotative and connotative uses of language and in the assignments of bodily energy, which Williams held to be evidence of a change in structure of feeling. It is the question of the counter-hegemonic potential of subaltern musical practice that joins Raymond Williams’s theoretical concerns and the implication of Allen Toussaint’s musical work in cultural politics. My address to the question is suggestive and interrogative rather than declarative and definitive. Barack Obama’s 2008 American presidential election and the post-election celebrations were the first to be conducted under the conditions of “web 2.0,” whose rapid spread from the mid-2000s is a historic “cultural break” similar in magnitude and consequence to the earlier generalization of print culture.1 In Stuart Hall’s terms, such breaks are moments in which the cultural conditions of political hegemony change.2 They are underpinned by changes in technological forces, in relations of production and communication.

Dát werd een hit voor Paul Young, The Chokin' Kind werd een R&B n°1 voor Joe Simon én stond ook mee op de From A Whisper To A Scream-lp van Allen Toussaint waar we hier nog altijd niet klaar mee zijn. 3:29 2 From A Whisper To A Scream (Toussaint) Tiffany ALLEN TOUSSAINT 1 Vooral een hit voor Robert Palmer achteraf deze From A Whisper To A Scream van Allen Toussaint, niet te verwarren met het gelijknamige Elvis Costello- nummer wat op zich een Original werd toen Clouseau daar in België Gefluister En Geschreeuw van maakte. Toeval wil bovendien dat Costello en Toussaint ooit samen een cd opnamen, The River In Reverse, waarop ze Tears, Tears And More Tears laten, origineel van Lee Dorsey. 3:25 3 Tears, Tears And More Tears (Toussaint) Polydor LEE DORSEY A13 5:31 4 On Your Way Down (Toussaint) WB LITTLE FEAT 4 Little Feat en toch nog altijd Allen Toussaint time in The Originals, Allen Allerheiligen klinkt wat miscast misschien op Paaszondag, maar zowel Tears, Tears And More Tears als On Your Way Down zijn van hem, origineel van hem zelfs maar de gelegenheid om nog eens iets van Little Feat te draaien is ons te sterk. Hetzelfde geldt voor Frankie Miller stuff, ook al zo'n Allen Toussaint adept.

  • What Is Blues Dancing? Shaped by the African
    Blues Dancing and its African American ROOTS WHAT IS BLUES DANCING? “Blues dance” is a new name describing a family of dances done to blues music and created within African American communites. Writng in the 1970s, African American jazz critc Albert Murray was the frst to categorize these dances as “blues-idiom.” Murray’s descripton of reactons to blues music—spontaneity, improvisaton, and control—applies to blues dance as well. SHAPED BY THE AFRICAN AMERICAN EXPERIENCE Despite enslavers’ atempts to eradicate African Americans’ heritage, African roots persist and are evident in blues music and dance characteristcs such as layering rhythms, emphasis on improvisaton, and a call and response format. Lyrics and music express everyday life experiences, ofen refectng themes of hardship, from racism and poverty to personal relatonships. Learning by watching and copying, as well as valuing innovaton and creaton of an individual’s unique personal style within the given aesthetc, is also part of the cultural traditon. Music and movement for African Americans during enslavement was ofen limited to actvites such as Christan prayer meetngs, work chants, and entertainment for plantaton owners. Afer emancipaton, African Americans gradually had more freedom to gather, play music, and dance on their own. Field hands in the South socialized in juke joints, small shacks where beer and liquor were sold, one or two local musicians played, and people danced. In Northern cites during the Great Migraton of the 1920s, middle-class blues and jazz musicians and dancers gathered in small apartments for occasions like rent partes. African Americans danced—and contnue to dance—on front porches and street corners, and in homes, back rooms of restaurants, community centers, and ballrooms.

As Music Editor for the Voice, he had come up with the Consumer Guide format back in 1969. His original format was twenty records, each accorded a single-paragraph review ending with a letter grade. His domain was rock and roll, but his taste and interests ranged widely, so his CGs regularly featured country, blues, folk, reggae, jazz, and later world (especially African), hip-hop, and electronica. Aside from two years off working for Newsday (when his Consumer Guide was published monthly in Creem), the Voice published his columns more-or-less monthly up to 2006, when new owners purged most of the Senior Editors.

  • CAP UCLA Celebrates Mardi Gras with Allen Toussaint and Dirty Dozen Brass Band Feb
    MEDIA ADVISORY For Immediate Release : January 12, 2012 Press information: Jessica Wolf 310.825.7789 [email protected] Image Library : www.cap.ucla/press-images CAP UCLA Celebrates Mardi Gras With Allen Toussaint and Dirty Dozen Brass Band Feb. 12 at Royce Hall Center for the Art of Performance at UCLA brings a slice of authentic New Orleans style “All on a Mardi Gras Day” to Royce Hall with R&B legend Allen Toussaint and Dirty Dozen Brass Band Tuesday, February 12 at 8 p.m. Tickets ($20-$60) are now available via cap.ucla.edu , Ticketmaster or at the UCLA Central Ticket Office (310. 825.2101). One of the most influential figures in New Orleans R&B, Allen Toussaint has crossed many paths in his illustrious 40-year (and counting) career. He has produced, written for, arranged, had his songs covered by, and performed with music giants The Judds, Paul McCartney, Paul Simon, Elvis Costello, Patti LaBelle, Mac "Dr. John" Rebannac, Aaron and Art Neville, Joe Cocker, The (original) Meters, Glen Campbell, The Band, Little Feat, The Rolling Stones, Devo, Ernie K-Doe, Lee Dorsey, Irma Thomas, Etta James, Ramsey Lewis, Eric Gale and the countless others. Toussaint’s live performances are punctuated by spellbinding storytelling and a fascinating set list of instantly recognizable tunes from his vast repertoire of hit songs, as performed with the warmth and humor of a true great. Toussaint’s 2009 album, and first solo release in a decade, the critically-acclaimed “The Bright Mississippi,” was his first jazz-oriented set, displaying the same effortless swing and relaxed charm he brought to his classic rock and roll sides.
