SALES NOTES Lloyd Price played a huge role in igniting the rock 'n' roll revolution with his 1952 landmark R&B chart-topper Lawdy Miss Clawdy, and the young New Orleans-born singer with the warm, sunny smile was also one of the first standup R&B singers to consistently crash the pop hit parade with his late '50s classics Stagger Lee and Personality. This 34-song collection is easily the most comprehensive Price hits overview yet, incorporating a dozen of his early sizzlers for Specialty (including the rockers Where You At?, Rock 'n' Roll Dance, and Baby Please Come Home ), several new-to- compact disc gems from Price's own KRC label ( The Chicken And The Bop, Georgianna, Such A Mess ), and his immortal pop smashes for ABC-Paramount, including his chart-topping Stagger Lee and Personality as well as Just Because, Where Were You (On Our Wedding Day)?, Lady Luck, and his romping cover of the Louis Jordan chestnut Ain't That Just Like A Woman . This Price is always right! TRACK LISTING 1. Where You At? 18. Down By The River 2. Country Boy Rock 19. Gonna Let You Come Back Home 3. Rock'n'Roll Dance 20. Stagger Lee 4. Walkin' The Track 21.

Rhythm, Dance, and Resistance in the New Orleans Second Line
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles “We Made It Through That Water”: Rhythm, Dance, and Resistance in the New Orleans Second Line A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology by Benjamin Grant Doleac 2018 © Copyright by Benjamin Grant Doleac 2018 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION “We Made It Through That Water”: Rhythm, Dance, and Resistance in the New Orleans Second Line by Benjamin Grant Doleac Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology University of California, Los Angeles, 2018 Professor Cheryl L. Keyes, Chair The black brass band parade known as the second line has been a staple of New Orleans culture for nearly 150 years. Through more than a century of social, political and demographic upheaval, the second line has persisted as an institution in the city’s black community, with its swinging march beats and emphasis on collective improvisation eventually giving rise to jazz, funk, and a multitude of other popular genres both locally and around the world. More than any other local custom, the second line served as a crucible in which the participatory, syncretic character of black music in New Orleans took shape. While the beat of the second line reverberates far beyond the city limits today, the neighborhoods that provide the parade’s sustenance face grave challenges to their existence. Ten years after Hurricane Katrina tore up the economic and cultural fabric of New Orleans, these largely poor communities are plagued on one side by underfunded schools and internecine violence, and on the other by the rising tide of post-disaster gentrification and the redlining-in- disguise of neoliberal urban policy.

Both outsiders coming to New Orleans such as Ornette Coleman and Cannonball Adderley and locally born musicians such as Alvin Battiste, Ellis Marsalis, and James Black have contributed to this music. These musicians have influenced later players like Steve Masakowski, Shannon Powell, and Johnny Vidacovich up to more current musicians like Terence Blanchard, Donald Harrison, and Christian Scott. There are multiple reasons why New Orleans modern jazz has not had a greater profile. Some of these reasons relate to the economic considerations of modern jazz. It is difficult for anyone involved in modern jazz, whether musicians, record

The Man Who Invented Jazz? C O on the Surface, It May Seem a Stretch; on Closer Inspection, It’S an Entirely Appropriate Honor
EARLY NFL B B N C E JELLY ROLL MORTON IN THE ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME? The man who invented jazz? C o On the surface, it may seem a stretch; on closer inspection, it’s an entirely appropriate honor. A music that has always borrowed liberally from other streams in its ongoing evolu tion would and should embrace as one of its own an artist imbued with the sensibility that bespeaks great art in general, rock & roll in specific: a zeal for adventure, disdain of the status quo, an innate drive to push the boundaries of convention until the artist breaks on through to the other side with something so new and brazen it’s virtually indefinable -I but talismanic to all the daring souls courageous enough to follow the same path. C o Remember that in the late 1920s, when Louis Armstrong was cutting his monumental sessions with his Hot Five and Hot Seven ensembles, Morton was charging ahead with his equally formidable Red Hot Peppers recordings. Ceding nothing to Satchmo, Morton made sure everyone knew of his achievements and even wrote a song about himself, called “Mr. Jelly Lord,” that pretty much said it all. He was styling at every turn, surrounding himself with Leader of the Band: beautiful women, dazzling the commonfolk with ° conducts his Red Hot his expensive, tailored suits and sporting a million- Peppers, circa 1928 dollar smile that revealed a diamond embedded in one tooth.

Jelly Roll backed up his braggadocio with a body of work that reveals him to be an extraordinary, even visionary, composer, bandleader, arranger and musician.

Biography -- Printable Version
Biography -- Printable Version Peter Wolf's Historical Biography Written & Researched by Bryan Wiser, and Sheila Warren with Mimi Fox. Born in New York City, Peter grew up in the Bronx during the mid-1950's in a small, three-room apartment where he lived with his parents, older sister, two cats, dog and parakeet. For some time, Peter lived with his grandmother, an actress in New York City's Yiddish Theater. She and Peter had a strong bond, and she affectionately named him "Little Wolf" for his energetic and rambunctious ways. His father was a musician, vaudevillian and singer of light opera. Like Peter did years later, his father left home at age fourteen to join the Schubert Theater Touring Company with which he traveled the country performing light operas such as The Student Prince and Merry Widow. He had his own radio show called The Boy Baritone, which featured new songs from Tin Pan Alley, and was a member of the Robert Shaw Chorale. As a result of such artistic pursuits, Peter's father underwent long periods of unemployment that created a struggle to make financial ends meet. Peter's mother was an elegant and attractive woman who taught inner-city children in the South Bronx for 27 years. A political activist, union organizer and staunch civil rights advocate, she supported racial equality by attending many of the southern "freedom rides" and marches. Peter's older sister was also a teacher as well as a photographer who now works as an advocate for persons with disabilities. She continues her mother's tradition, often marching on Washington to support the rights of the disabled.

Stagger Lee How Violent Nostalgia Created an American Folk Song Standard
Essay Stagger Lee How Violent Nostalgia Created an American Folk Song Standard Duncan Williams University of York Tradition ist die Weitergabe des Feuers und nicht die Anbetung der Asche. ~ Attr. Gustav Mahler (1860-1911, German composer) Tradition is tending the flame, not worshipping the ashes (Translation by author) Tending the Flame There is a long tradition of storytelling in folksong. Before methods for transcribing and later for recording definitive versions existed, the oral tradition was used to pass on tales and deeds. And, as anyone familiar with ‘Chinese whispers’ will know, this process is not always accurate. Even when transcription methods had become available, the accuracy of the record can be questioned, as is the case in Sabine Bearing-Gould (1834-1924), an 18th century Anglican reverend, perhaps most famous for his earnest documentation of werewolves (Baring-Gould 1973), as well as many collections of English folk song, which were often unsurprisingly edited from the pious perspective of a religious man of the time, likely due to the collectors profession. Often, such songs are cautionary or moral tales, and thus the process of collecting and editing can change an oral history dramatically. This essay will consider how one such instance, the song Stagger Lee, reflects changing attitudes of the audience and the narrator towards violence and masculinity in its portrayal of an initially real-world, and later supernatural, violent protagonist. How, and why this paean to violence, with its fetishistic vision of extreme masculinity, has become something of a standard in the American folk canon. It considers both the retelling of Stagger Lee’s tale in song, and subsequent appropriation by cinema in depictions of race, sex, and violence as admirable or heroic qualities.
