  • The Tin Pan Alley Pop Era (1885-Mid 1950'S)
    OVERVIEW: The Foundation of Rock And Roll During the Great Migration more than 100,000 African-American laborers moved from the agricultural South to the urban North bringing with them their music and memories. Also, during the 1920’s the phonograph and the rise of commercial radio began to spread Hillbilly music and the Blues. This gave rise to an appreciating of American vernacular music, both white and black. Ultimately, the homogenizing effect of blending several regional musical styles and cultural practices gave birth to 1950’s rock and roll.

  • The Duke Robillard Band (Usa) „Indepently Blue” – Cd-Präsentation
    29. März bis 6. April 2014 Eine Veranstaltung der HIGHLIGHT THE DUKE ROBILLARD BAND (USA) „INDEPENTLY BLUE” – CD-PRÄSENTATION So, 30. März Kulturfabrik (Stieberstraße 7, 91154 Roth) 20 Uhr, bestuhlt VVK 22,80 €/AK 24 €/ZAC 18,60 € Es führt kein Weg an diesem Gitarristen vorbei. Er spielt fast 200 Gigs im Jahr und mit fast jedermann aus der Topliga des Musikerzirkels. Auch mit Bob Dylan auf dessen „Time Out Of Mind“. Er gründete die legendären Roomful of Blues, die mit Big Joe Turner und Eddie Cleanhead Vinson auf Tour gingen. Egal ob Jazz, Rock, Funk, 50er-Jahre-Chicago-Blues oder Slowblues: Robillard ist unbestritten einer der handwerklich fähigsten Gitarristen der Gegenwart und nun zum ersten Mal in Roth zu erleben. 1948 als Michael Robillard in Rhode Island geboren, zog es den jungen Gitarristen schon früh ins Musikgeschäft. 1967 gründete er mit dem Pianisten Al Copley die erfolgreiche R&B-Combo Roomful of Blues. Nach dreizehn Jahren überließ er seinen Platz dort Ronnie Earl , um Leadgitarrist für Robert Gordon zu werden. Danach war er kurzzeitig Mitglied der Legendary Blues Band . 1981 gründete er die Duke Robillard Band, die sich bald in Duke Robillard & The Pleasure Kings umbenannte. Nachdem die Band 1984 einen Plattenvertrag bei Rounder Records bekam, veröffentlichte sie eine Reihe von Alben und trennte sich 1990 wieder. Im selben Jahr ersetzte Robillard Jimmie Vaughan bei den Fabulous Thunderbirds . Bob Dylan, Jay McShann, Jimmy Witherspoon nahmen Robillards Gitarrenkünste im Studio und auf der Bühne in Anspruch. Seit Mitte der 90er- Jahre ist Robillard vor allem als Solokünstler mit seiner eigenen Band auf Tour und hat über dreißig Platten veröffentlicht, darunter Blueswerke wie „Blues For Modern Man“ (1999) oder „Blue Mood“ (2004).

  • 3 Monday Midnights by Jamal Gerald PART 1
    3 Monday Midnights by Jamal Gerald Mojuba Esu Modupe Open the doors, let's have some fun. I want to be known as troublesome. Ase Ase Ase. PART 1 Elvis, known as the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll. It’s time for a new story to be told. Banish away his catalogue and show the world a new dialogue. Burn his legacy and create a new destiny. Let a Queen astonish and let the King be demolished. It's Monday at midnight. I'm looking out the window like I'm waiting for a message from God, but I’m only waiting for my takeaway. It’ll be here in an hour. I’m thinking of God’s opposition, Lucifer. First off, what a beautiful name. I’ve always been fascinated by him. Yes, he’s evil. But there are some traits I find admirable. I love his rebellious nature. And I do love me a problematic fave. My subconscious leads me to the crossroads, where I sit and meditate with a blue waxing crescent smiling: the incense flickers and the smoke twirls. My spirit rises. But my meditation has been electrocuted by a white man singing about his white guilt. Eurgh. His liquorice tears are staining his charity shop clothing. Oh, what do you know? It's Elvis, the former King of Rock ‘n’ Roll. And yes, I said ‘former’. Elvis doesn't look like Elvis Presley. Natural blonde hair and eyebrows. No trace of black shoe polish in use. He has no care for being clean-shaven, looks similar to a caveman.
