Yet since first arriving in the Valley in 1968, Kaiser struggled to keep pace with its popularity. Quarters were sometimes cramped as facilities and staffing grew exponentially to meet demand. This fall, Kaiser took a dramatic leap forward by creating a spectacular new space for its specialists. The eye-catching new Medical Specialties complex on Avenue L offers far more than just an attractive façade. It is designed from the ground up to provide patients with quality medical care while treating the environment with respect as well. While the building is architecturally stunning from the outside, the real beauty comes from the thought and care that went into creating a facility with “We want our facility to reflect the patients’ needs so much in mind.

While tympanic reproduction has been very successful, its success has limited the ways in which music reproduction is popularly imagined and discussed. This thesis explores the history of “re-performance,” an alternative mode of reproduction epitomized by the early twentieth-century player piano. It begins with a discussion of nineteenth-century piano recorders and the historical role of material representation in the production of music.

  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.

This may have been accidental; legend has it that one of the ACTIVE PICKUPS AND CONTROLS INDICATED IN ORANGE AND CONTROLS INDICATED ACTIVE PICKUPS pickups was incorrectly repaired.

When John Mayall (2) released the album Bluesbreakers (apr 1966 - jul 1966), featuring the former Yardbirds guitarist Eric Clapton, he defined, once and for all, a genre of rhythm'n'blues played by white European musicians, the epitome of "blues-rock", which soon became one of the strongest undercurrents of British rock music. It also laid the foundations for progressive-rock: A Hard Road (oct/nov 1966 - jan 1967), featuring new guitarist Peter Green, the lush jazz arrangements of the Bare Wires Suite (1968), the sophisticated lounge-music of the concept-album Blues From Laurel Canyon (aug 1968 - nov 1968) and of his masterpiece, The Turning Point (jul 1969 - nov 1969), featuring a drum-less quartet with guitarist Jon Mark and saxophonist Johnny Almond, the prelude to an ambitious Jazz-Blues Fusion (nov/dec 1971 - ? 1972). Fleetwod Mac, Colosseum and Mark-Almond (formed by those cohorts) would be the logical consequences of Mayall's continuing experiment with the blues.
