The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation was established on April 20, 1983, by Atlantic Records founder and chairman Ahmet Ertegun to recognize and archive the history of the best-known and most influential artists, producers, engineers, and other notable figures, who have each had some major influence on the development of rock and roll. In 1986, Cleveland was chosen as the hall of fame's permanent home. Since opening in September 1995, the "Rock Hall" – part of the city's redeveloped North Coast Harbor – has hosted more than 10 million visitors and had a cumulative economic impact estimated at more than $1.8 billion. The first group of inductees, inducted on January 23, 1986, included Elvis Presley, James Brown, Little Richard, Fats Domino, Ray Charles, Chuck Berry, Sam Cooke, the Everly Brothers, Buddy Holly, and Jerry Lee Lewis. Robert Johnson, Jimmie Rodgers, and Jimmy Yancey were inducted as Early Influences, John Hammond received the Lifetime Achievement Award and Alan Freed and Sam Phillips were inducted as Non-Performers. Artists are eligible to be inducted 25 years after the release of their first record. 5 – 7 artists are inducted every year. A permanent exhibit is the “Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll”. It started as 500 songs recorded from 1920 – 1990. The oldest song on the list is "Wabash Cannonball", written circa 1882. The Beatles and the Rolling Stones are the most represented on the list, with eight songs each. 155 other songs have been added. The most recent songs on the list are Gnarls Barkley's "Crazy" and My Chemical Romance's "Welcome to the Black Parade," both released in 2006. Some smash hits by the first inductees: Elvis Presley – Don't Be Cruel, Heartbreak Hotel, Love Me Tender, Hound Dog, All Shook Up James Brown – I Got You (I Feel Good), Papa's Got a Brand New Bag, It's a Man's Man's Man's World Little Richard – Tutti Frutti, Long Tall Sally, The Girl Can't Help It, Good Golly Miss Molly, Lucille Fats Domino – Blueberry Hill, Ain't That A Shame, Whole Lotta Lovin', You Always Hurt the One You Love Ray Charles - I Can't Stop Loving You, Georgia on My Mind, Hit the Road Jack, Unchain My Heart Chuck Berry – Maybellene (often called the first true rock n' roll song), My Little Ding-a-Ling, Roll Over Beethoven, Too Much Monkey Business, Johnny B.

Were never to be Many people comin' from miles around Though we're apart, you ['re] part of me still To hear you play your music when the sun go down For you were my thrill on Blueberry Hill Maybe someday your name will be in lights Sayin' Johnny B.

  • Great Instrumental
    I grew up during the heyday of pop instrumental music in the 1950s and the 1960s (there were 30 instrumental hits in the Top 40 in 1961), and I would listen to the radio faithfully for the 30 seconds before the hourly news when they would play instrumentals (however the first 45’s I bought were vocals: Bimbo by Jim Reeves in 1954, The Ballad of Davy Crockett with the flip side Farewell by Fess Parker in 1955, and Sixteen Tons by Tennessee Ernie Ford in 1956). I also listened to my Dad’s 78s, and my favorite song of those was Raymond Scott’s Powerhouse from 1937 (which was often heard in Warner Bros. cartoons). and to records that my friends had, and that their parents had - artists such as: (This is not meant to be a complete or definitive list of the music of these artists, or a definitive list of instrumental artists – rather it is just a list of many of the instrumental songs I heard and loved when I was growing up - therefore this list just goes up to the early 1970s): Floyd Cramer (Last Date and On the Rebound and Let’s Go and Hot Pepper and Flip Flop & Bob and The First Hurt and Fancy Pants and Shrum and All Keyed Up and San Antonio Rose and [These Are] The Young Years and What’d I Say and Java and How High the Moon), The Ventures (Walk Don't Run and Walk Don’t Run ‘64 and Perfidia and Ram-Bunk-Shush and Diamond Head and The Cruel Sea and Hawaii Five-O and Oh Pretty Woman and Go and Pedal Pusher and Tall Cool One and Slaughter on Tenth Avenue), Booker T.

A year later, the trio released “Iko Iko,” a song first released in 1954 by James “Sugar Boy” Crawford as “Jock-A-Mo,” whose lyrics recount the meeting of two groups of Mardi Gras Indians. Since then, this song has been cov- ered by artists from the Grateful Dead to Cyndi Lauper, and continues to move new generations with its infectious New Orleans rhythms. The career of The Dixie Cups, and their direct and indirect roles in carrying rhythm and blues (R&B) into mainstream consciousness, speaks to the enduring pow- er of this music to transcend region and musical category and become a representative sound of the country.

  • Blues and Boogie Woogie Style
    ELI H. NEWBERGER ARCHETYPES AND ANTECEDENTS OF PIANO BLUES AND BOOGIE WOOGIE STYLE Jazz is essentially an improvised music; it is simultaneously composed and performed. "Style" in jazz implies qualities of both composition and performance. "Idiom," "structure," "phrasing," and "tech- nique" are aspects of style, and a study of various jazz styles contrasts musical " personalities" in the fullest sense. The jazz piano is as old as jazz, and there have been as many jazz piano styles as there have been jazz pianists. Some , however , seem to show particular originality and imagination, and their work has been of influence. The piano blues stylists to whom one can look as archetypes for the piano blues and boogie-woogie school share these attributes. In general, the performers represented here exhibit an impressive technical command of the piano. This is not a prime requisite for the effective use of the instrument in jazz , however. For that reason , Cripple Clarence Lofton is present, while, for instance, Jose Iturbi is not. To capture a sense of style, and to demonstrate the characteristic features of this school of jazz pianism , each of the artists discussed in this article is represented by a typical 12-bar blues improvisation. Principal conceptual and methodologic issues pertaining to the tran- scription and notation of these choruses are reviewed in a previous study. 1 As did ragtime, piano blues and boogie-woogie derived from many sources. But where ragtime shows in its notated music and its mannered style the manifest influence of nineteenth century European and Ameri- Eli H. Newberger is writing several articles as part of a larger study on the evolution of jazz piano styles.

  • Chicago Music Communities and the Everyday Significance of Playing Jazz
    MUSIC PRACTICES AS SOCIAL RELATIONS: CHICAGO MUSIC COMMUNITIES AND THE EVERYDAY SIGNIFICANCE OF PLAYING JAZZ by John Frederic Behling A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Music: Musicology) in The University of Michigan 2010 Doctoral Committee: Professor Mark Allan Clague, Chair Professor Paul A. Anderson Professor Kelly M. Askew Professor Charles Hiroshi Garrett Copyright John Frederic Behling 2010 Acknowledgements In this dissertation, I argue that the solos of jazz musicians spring from the practices of the communities in which they live. What holds true for expression and creativity in jazz is no less true of academic research and writing. This dissertation would not be possible without the support and encouragement of many communities and individuals. I thank all the musicians in Chicago who played music with me and welcomed me into their communities. I am especially grateful to Aki Antonia Smith, Edwina Smith, Scott Earl Holman, and Ed Breazeale for befriending me and introducing me to the musicians and communities about whom I write. I am also grateful for the support of my academic community. Kelly Askew introduced me to the anthropological side of ethnomusicology. Her writing showed me what compassionate and concrete ethnography should be like. Paul Anderson’s late night seminars helped me understand that musical practices have philosophical and psychological significance and that jazz criticism is part of a much larger and long- standing intellectual conversation. Charles Hiroshi Garrett, a late addition to my committee, embraced this project with enthusiasm. His generous encouragement and insightful comments are greatly appreciated.

Blues, as a musical form, has had and continues to have a profound effect on the entire music industry, both in the United States and abroad. Blues constitute a rich cultural entity in its pure form; but its influence goes far beyond this-for itis the bedrock of jazz, the basis of much of folk and country music and it is closely akin to gospel. But finally and most importantly, blues and its derivatives- and the concept of soul-are major factors in today's pop music. In fact, it is no exaggeration to state flatly that blues, a truly American idiom, is the most pervasive element in American music COVER PHOTO today.

Rhythm and Blues 55 The Dixie Cups are among the impressive line-up of artists participating in this summer's Smithsonian Folklife Festival. The Rhythm and Blues: Tel/It Like It Is program is an exploration of the rich historical, cultural, and musical matrix of R&B . Through music and dance performances , workshops, and narrative discussions, this program considers R&B as a collaborative art form that is shaped by composers , performers, producers, and communities of listeners. Most importantly, it highlights how music provides a dynamic lens to explore the relationship of African American history and experiences to American popular culture. The history of R&B and the breadth of what it encompasses-socially, commercially, and artistically­ suggests that it is not monolithic.
