  • Chic & Nile Rodgers – Ett Rockband För
    Lördagspremium: Chic & Nile Rodgers – ett rockband för discorörelsen Att kalla discomusiken för en fluga är att göra det alldeles för lätt för sig. Precis som med alla genrer som har så tydliga attribut och förtecken – hårdrock, punk, new romantic – är det lätt att göra narr av och underskatta discons inverkan på musikhistorien och populärkulturen i stort. Faktum är att alla vet hur discomusik låter och vad som kännetecknar den korta period den regerade på listorna. Och med tiden har dess simpla budskap om att dansa och ha roligt gång på gång omfamnats av det hårda, moderna samhället, lika mycket som dess musikaliska attribut gång på gång återanvänts i alla typer av dansmusik. Om man skrattar åt disco idag gör man det mer på grund av de hårresande utstyrslarna och de fåniga, om än stilbildande dansrörelserna än de de facto grymt svängiga låtarna och extremt detaljerade – och minst lika stilbildande produktionerna. Tiden har på många sätt gett discon rätt, åtminstone ur ett musikaliskt perspektiv. ”Tiden har på många sätt gett discon rätt” Precis som så många andra hårt arbetande svarta musiker i New York var Nile Rodgers, född 1952, uppvuxen med R&B, soul och jazz. Hans första betalda gig var dock någonting helt annat – som musiker i The Sesame Street Band, som gjorde musiken till barnprogrammet med samma namn. Efter att ha backat bland andra Screamin Jay Hawkins på legendariska Apollo Theatre träffade han 1970 basisten Bernard Edwards – som han för all framtid skulle komma att kalla ”min partner” – och tillsammans kompade de ett stort antal mer eller mindre kända artister innan de bildade sitt eget Big Apple Band, som hade några mindre lokala hits i början av 70-talet.

  • Steve Cropper | Primary Wave Music
    STEVE CROPPER facebook.com/stevecropper twitter.com/officialcropper Image not found or type unknown youtube.com/channel/UCQk6gXkhbUNnhgXHaARGskg playitsteve.com en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Cropper open.spotify.com/artist/1gLCO8HDtmhp1eWmGcPl8S If Yankee Stadium is “the house that Babe Ruth built,” Stax Records is “the house that Booker T, and the MG’s built.” Integral to that potent combination is MG rhythm guitarist extraordinaire Steve Cropper. As a guitarist, A & R man, engineer, producer, songwriting partner of Otis Redding, Eddie Floyd and a dozen others and founding member of both Booker T. and the MG’s and The Mar-Keys, Cropper was literally involved in virtually every record issued by Stax from the fall of 1961 through year end 1970.Such credits assure Cropper of an honored place in the soul music hall of fame. As co-writer of (Sittin’ On) The Dock Of The Bay, Knock On Wood and In The Midnight Hour, Cropper is in line for immortality. Born on October 21, 1941 on a farm near Dora, Missouri, Steve Cropper moved with his family to Memphis at the age of nine. In Missouri he had been exposed to a wealth of country music and little else. In his adopted home, his thirsty ears amply drank of the fountain of Gospel, R & B and nascent Rock and Roll that thundered over the airwaves of both black and white Memphis radio. Bit by the music bug, Cropper acquired his first mail order guitar at the age of 14. Personal guitar heroes included Tal Farlow, Chuck Berry, Jimmy Reed, Chet Atkins, Lowman Pauling of the Five Royales and Billy Butler of the Bill Doggett band.

  • 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.

In the beginning, the story goes, disco was gay: Gay dancers went to gay clubs, celebrated their newly liberated status by dancing with other men, and discovered a vicarious voice in the form of disco’s soul and gospel-oriented divas. Received wisdom has it that straights, having played no part in this embryonic moment, co-opted the culture after they cottoned onto its chic status and potential profitability.

  • GLORIA GAYNOR Is All About Adapting, Evolving and Celebrating Life’S Triumphs, Big and Gloria Gaynor Small
    INTERVIEW 39 EDGE er first Top 10 hit examined how hard it is to leave the man you love. Her signature Hsong a few years later celebrated the act of booting him to interview the curb. GLORIA GAYNOR is all about adapting, evolving and celebrating life’s triumphs, big and Gloria Gaynor small. From her teen years in Newark as an aspiring entertainer to her ascent to Disco Diva, she has not only survived, she has thrived. As EDGE Assignments Editor ZACK BURGESS discovered, Gaynor has learned a thing or two about herself and others along the way. Still going strong more than four decades after first taking the stage, she is not an easy woman to slow down—even when examining her remarkable achievements and indelible music legacy. EDGE: You have quite a résumé in Soul, Gospel and R&B. Yet most people associate you with Disco. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? GG: It’s kind of a double-edged sword. People who like disco music and associate me with it, I think that’s great. But when people who like other genres don’t associate me with those genres, well that’s not a good thing. EDGE: As disco faded in the 1980s, did that affect your career? GG: Yes, it did. I received fewer calls from the United States to perform.

  • Hello, Stranger
    CAREERS NERDY NETWORKER Debut author explains CAREER DECISIONS Too complex for the NATUREJOBS For the latest career why scientists are naturals p.731 rational brain go.nature.com/yjdpyi listings and advice www.naturejobs.com his singing partner was Chris Parsons, then- president of the marine section of the Society for Conservation Biology in Washington DC. In a 20-second elevator speech that he had fortuitously practised beforehand, Shiffman — who studies shark ecology at the Univer- OIVIND HOVLAND/GETTY sity of Miami in Florida — told Parsons about a presentation that he had given about social media. Parsons was intrigued, and later invited Shiffman to be the first official live-tweeter at the December 2011 International Congress for Conservation Biology in Auckland, New Zealand. That was the first of many confer- ences that Shiffman has since live-tweeted and at which he has given talks, all of which have been fully funded by conferences and other organizations — successes thanks in part to that serendipitous karaoke duet. COURTEOUS COURAGE Shiffman’s experience is an example of how conferences can be a professional boon to early-career scientists, offering countless opportunities to meet mentors and collabora- tors as well as to impress potential employers. But there is also ample opportunity to trample those very chances. Bad behaviour, whether in or outside a session, can harm a junior researcher’s reputation and jeopardize his or her job prospects for years to come. Although neophyte conference attend- ees may plan out the talks that they want to hear, rarely do they seek advice about the many unspoken rules of proper conference etiquette.
