  • 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.

  • Nile Rodgers in New York City, 1991
    Nile Rodgers in New York City, 1991 68 MUSICAL EXCELLENCE Nile Rodgers HE CREATES A DISTINCTIVE SOUND ON THE RECORDS HE WRITES, PRODUCES, ARRANGES, AND PLAYS ON. BY ROB BOWMAN Nile Rodgers’ influence on popular music over the past forty years is nearly unfathomable. As a guitarist, songwriter, producer, arranger, and funkster extraordinaire, Rodgers has left his imprint on a stun- ningly wide array of genres including disco, R&B, rock, mainstream pop, hip-hop, and EDM. Looking over the breadth of his career, a case could easily be made that no single individual has had a greater impact on the sound of pop, from the late 1970s to the present day. ¶ Alongside his partner, bass player wunderkind Bernard Edwards, Rodgers wrote and produced hit after hit for Chic, Sister Sledge, and Diana Ross, tearing up both the dance floor and the radio. After Chic broke up and Rodgers and Edwards went their separate ways, Rodgers broke free of the disco moniker and reinvented himself, producing, arranging, and playing guitar on David Bowie’s come- back album, Let’s Dance (1983), and Madonna’s breakout album, 69 Like a Virgin (1984). Along the way he took INXS and Chic in their prime then Duran Duran to new heights with “Original Sin” with Rodgers and and “The Reflex,” respectively, and produced albums by Bernard Edwards Mick Jagger, Jeff Beck, the B-52s, and David Lee Roth. center stage, 1979 He played key guitar parts on Steve Winwood’s “High- er Love” and Michael Jackson’s HIStory.

  • “Rapper's Delight”-- Sugarhill Gang (1979) Added to the National Registry: 2011 Essay by Eric Reese (Guest Post)*
    “Rapper's Delight”-- Sugarhill Gang (1979) Added to the National Registry: 2011 Essay by Eric Reese (guest post)* Sugarhill Gang Original disc Sylvia Robinson Introduction To those who were alive in the late 1970s, the song “Rapper’s Delight” was, upon its release, a sensational, soul-gripping, well-celebrated and well-applauded song. “Rapper's Delight” by the Sugarhill Gang, like every other great song, has enjoyed its fair share of appreciation, recognition and criticisms and indured a few scandals and lawsuits and other disputes typical of many hit songs of that era. The 1970s was an age of continual development in rap music which had begun no less than seven years before. Rap artists struggled to find voice, or even producers, to support their talents or provide a covering for their gifts. That era sank more rap ships than any in history and few nascent rappers had the guts to keep on living through the genre which was slowly coming to be known as hip-hop. The song “Rapper's Delight” itself was termed the pioneer upon which the wide-scale influx of hip-hop to the larger market was built. Not that it was the first rap song released, but it was one of a kind, considering the overall reception to hip-hop music back in the day. Upon its release in 1979, the Sugarhill Gang’s song, produced by Sylvia Robinson, brought the never-heard before freshness of rap with the oddity of blending different rap styles and content into one big blend: hip-hop. Components of “Rapper’s Delight” included dance, sexuality, charisma, buoyance and other themes which went as far as including the spirit and obsessive nature of such singers as James Brown.

  • NILE RODGERS: Biography
    NILE RODGERS: biography There is nothing you can say about Nile Rodgers that hasn't already been heard by billions of people, via millions of radio airwaves, in thousands of cities, in hundreds of countries. The career of Nile Rodgers is one of the most enduring and prolific in music. Nile's signature is scrawled across an amazing array of music - from Madonna to Diana Ross, from David Bowie to Eric Clapton. Nile first picked up a guitar while still in school and there was no stopping the evident talent that quickly emerged. At the age of 19, Nile not only worked for Sesame Street, but was performing nightly as part of the house band for the world renowned Apollo Theatre in Harlem, playing with luminaries such as Aretha Franklin, Parliament Funkadelic, Ben E. King, and The Cadillacs. Pretty amazing for a skinny kid with glasses from New York City, but he wanted more. Nile Rodgers wanted a band of his own. Once the decision was made, Nile searched for a partner in crime. He soon found him in local boy Bernard Edwards, whose perfectly meticulous bass seamlessly complemented Nile's precise guitar. The two were confident enough of their synergy to introduce the world to CHIC in 1977. "Dance, Dance, Dance", the first single off CHIC's eponymous début, hit the Top 10 and they never looked back. 1978 yielded their second hit, "Everybody Dance", while a third single, "Le Freak", hit No. 1 and became Warner Brothers' biggest selling single of all time. The dynamic duo of Edwards and Rodgers finished off the year by releasing their second album, C'est Chic, which went directly into the Top 5.

  • “Le Freak”—Chic (1978) Added to the National Registry: 2017 Essay by Cary O’Dell
    “Le Freak”—Chic (1978) Added to the National Registry: 2017 Essay by Cary O’Dell “Le Freak” 45 sleeve Original 45 label Nile Rodgers Inevitably, there seems to be a collective groan whenever that word is spoken. That word, of course, is “disco.” It is, without question the only musical genre to illicit such a response. No one smirks and recedes from “country” or “classical” or “folk.” It is also the only musical genre to ever have had its own made-to-order funeral: the public lambasting that was the famous—turned infamous—“Disco Sucks” Demolition Night held on July 12, 1979 at Comiskey Park in Chicago, Illinois. Yet, despite all the baggage attached to it, and despite the endless jokes, and the very bad fashion connected with it, the music of disco, itself, has actually aged remarkably well. And, in fact, it has never completely departed. Today, disco beats still rain down from the radio airwaves and steam upwards from the streets and meet on a million dance floors in between. It’s just that, today, instead of daring to utter the word “disco,” we hide these same grooves under euphemisms like “dance” music or “club” music. Founded, more or less, in 1976, the band known as Chic has survived, with some hiatuses, up to the present day. They have also existed in various incarnations with a wide assortment of musicians and singers coming and going over the years. At the time the group recorded their major hit “Le Freak,” however, the group consisted (in the studio, at least) of five members: Nile Rodgers, Bernard Edwards, Tony Thompson, Norman Jean Wright and Alfa Anderson.

Introduction Regardless of whether an artist is already a superstar or aspiring to be, the questions surrounding the lawfulness of sampling other artists’ creations are equally vast and complex.1 Artists we listen to every day are too often embroiled in lawsuits regarding music sampling. One such artist, Beyoncé Knowles-Carter, is currently involved in a lawsuit with the estate of Anthony Barre.2 The estate accuses Beyoncé of sampling audio3 from two YouTube videos created and posted by the late New Orleans rapper and comedian, Messy Mya,4 without the consent of his estate.5 Beyoncé alleges the samples of Messy Mya’s clips constitute fair use and the dispute is currently pending before the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana. These disputes, and countless others like them6 illustrate a problem with copyright law and J.D.
