  • Neville Brothers -- the first Family of New Orleans Music -- Has Vowed Not to Return to New Orleans
    Dec. 15, 2005-- Cyril Neville boarded Amtrak's City of New Orleans train with a full head of steam. He joined singer-songwriter Arlo Guthrie earlier this month for the first leg of a 12-day journey from Chicago to New Orleans, playing concerts along the way to raise funds for victims of Hurricane Katrina. Neville, however, won't be on the train when it rolls into his old hometown. He won't be going home at all. Neville, 56, percussionist-vocalist and youngest member of the Neville Brothers -- the first family of New Orleans music -- has vowed not to return to New Orleans. During a heartfelt conversation before embarking on the train journey, Neville explained he and his wife, Gaynielle, have bought a home in Austin, Texas. Cyril Neville joins his nephew Ivan Neville, as well as the Radiators and the Iguanas as popular New Orleans acts who have settled in Austin. Some even perform in an ad hoc band known as the Texiles. They sing a different song about the promised recovery of New Orleans. "Would I go back to live?" Neville asked. "There's nothing there. And the situation for musicians was a joke. People thought there was a New Orleans music scene -- there wasn't. You worked two times a year: Mardi Gras and Jazz Fest. The only musicians I knew who made a living playing music in New Orleans were Kermit Ruffins and Pete Fountain. Everyone else had to have a day job or go on tour. I have worked more in two months in Austin than I worked in two years in New Orleans.

    Vol II issue 1 Vol. II, issue 1 1 Photo / Bob Compton Where is Beat Street? There is a place in New Orleans, a figurative address that is home to all that is real. New Orleans Beat Street is the home of jazz. It is also the residence of funk and the blues; R&B and rock ‘n’ roll live here, too. When zydeco and Cajun music come to town, Beat Street is their local address. Beat Street has intersections all over town: from Uptown to Treme, from the Ninth Ward to the French Quarter, from Bywater to the Irish Channel, weaving its way through Mid-City and all points Back o’ Town. Beat Street is the Main Street in our musical village. It is where we gather to dine and to groove to live music in settings both upscale and downhome. Beat Street is where we meet to celebrate life in New Orleans with second line parades, festivals and concerts in the park. Beat Street is lined with music clubs, restaurants, art galleries, recording studios, clothing shops, coffee emporiums and so much more. New Orleans Beat Street is a mythical street in New Orleans surrounded by water and flooded with music. 2 NEW ORLEANS BEAT STREET MAGAZINE Vol. II, issue 1 3 Photo / Michael P. Smith In This Issue... Beat Street returns with a dual focus this month on the inimitable James Booker and the thirtieth anniversary of the Maple Leaf Bar. Eminent Booker scholars David Ku- nian, Tom McDermott and Josh Paxton weigh in on why Booker was so heavy.

Tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli analysoida Zigaboon soittotyyliä seuraavista näkökulmista: fraseeraus, synkopointi, claven vaikutus Zigaboon kompeissa ja virvelirummun käyttö. Olen kirjoittanut 8 kpl transkriptioita sellaisista Zigaboon soittamista kompeista, joista tulee selvästi esille New Orleans funkin tyylillisiä piirteitä ja jotka tukevat tutkimukseni tavoitteita. Kappaleiden valintaperusteena oli myös se, että kyseisiä kappaleita ja komppeja on mielestäni erityisen mukavaa soittaa.
