PAUL Mccartney's CHILDHOOD HOME IN THE SUCCESSFUL PRESERVATION OF ROCK AND ROLL MUSIC SITES: PAUL McCARTNEY’S CHILDHOOD HOME IN LIVERPOOL, ENGLAND AND THE CHESS RECORDS OFFICE AND STUDIO IN CHICAGO, ILLINOIS A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Kandalyn Lu Hahn January 2005 © 2005 Kandalyn Lu Hahn ABSTRACT Groundbreaking preservation efforts for two highly significant rock and roll music sites are examined: Paul McCartney’s childhood home in Liverpool, England, under the protection of the National Trust, and the former Chess Records office and studio in Chicago, Illinois, landmarked under city ordinance. Mid to late twentieth-century popular music sites face multiple threats of demolition, neglect, and inappropriate treatment. The lack of architectural distinction, bias against relatively recent history, and need to establish the relevance of popular culture inhibit successful preservation of rock and roll sites. Yet popular interest in such sites has exploded since the 1990s and visitation is on the rise. Increasing interest in these locations translates into more opportunities for funding and support. At the same time, it intensifies the need for preservation as popularity attracts exploitation schemes that threaten the integrity of the sites. Finally, given the difficulty of finding accurate documentation of these sites, the critical time to work on their preservation is while people who know their history firsthand are still alive. The examination includes a review of the literature, much of it in popular media, and primary research in the form of site visitation; interviews with key people and related experts; collection of original documentation; and some observation of work in progress. Research establishes the historic context, significance, and local preservation climate for each site. The preservation projects’ processes and outcomes are documented and critiqued. Findings suggest that there are five major components necessary for successful preservation of rock and roll music sites: preservation protection through institutional purpose or legal status; funding; long-term preservation philosophy; regular observation of work and adherence to a restoration design plan; and research. Noting that these are widely applicable components, three non-critical factors are distinguished which have special significance for this subset of historic sites: the need for significance to counter biases; public value and visitation; and support of name stars. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Kandalyn Hahn was born and grew up in Lincoln, Nebraska. She attended Amherst College where she majored in fine arts and graduated with a B.A. in 1988. After several years in the work force, she returned to school as a graduate student at Cornell University’s Historic Preservation Planning Program. She currently lives in Chicago, Illinois with her husband Richard Poemape. iii To Mom for the dancing and to Dad for the music. iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am touched by the incredible generosity of the people with whom this thesis brought me in contact.

I am greatly indebted to Michael Tomlan, Director of the Graduate Program of Historic Preservation Planning, for his patience and helpful criticism which greatly improved this thesis; and to Mary Woods, who very kindly agreed to serve as my second thesis committee member. I would like to acknowledge the financial support of two departments at Cornell University. Thanks to the Department of Planning for matching funds for summer internships with the Chicago Department of Planning & Development.

A Business Perspective Helsinki Metropolia University of Applied Sciences Bachelor of Business Administration International Business and Logistics 1405484 22nd March 2018 Abstract Author(s) Jose Dailos Cabrera Laasanen Title Is Rock Music in Decline? A Business Perspective Number of Pages 45 Date 22.03.2018 Degree Bachelor of Business Administration Degree Programme International Business and Logistics Instructor(s) Michael Keaney, Senior Lecturer Rock music has great importance in the recent history of human kind, and it is interesting to understand the reasons of its de- cline, if it actually exists. Its legacy will never disappear, and it will always be a great influence for new artists but is important to find out the reasons why it has become what it is in now, and what is the expected future for the genre. This project is going to be focused on the analysis of some im- portant business aspects related with rock music and its de- cline, if exists. The collapse of Gibson guitars will be analyzed, because if rock music is in decline, then the collapse of Gibson is a good evidence of this. Also, the performance of independ- ent and major record labels through history will be analyzed to understand better the health state of the genre. The same with music festivals that today seem to be increasing their popularity at the expense of smaller types of live-music events.
