    DAVE RAY: Dave "Snaker" Ray, whose ambition is to be a doctor, started playing guitar while a sophomore in high school.

He began playing the 12-string guitar when a senior in high school, and lists as early influences, Elvis' Sun label recordings, Bo Diddley, Muddy Waters, early Chicago, and, of course, Leadbelly. " I sing the blues because it's a medium not as demanding as literatu re or serious music, and free enough to permit a total statement of personality and. self, " Dave states. "I play blues because 1 feel it's important to me to express myself and because I feel it's a significant form of music which hasn't had enough dispersement. As far as white men playing blues, that's all who do play blues. the new Negroes are too busy (doing other things). " Discography: Blues, Rags and Hollers (Elektra EKL 240). Dave Ray may soon be heard, with John Koerner and Tony Glover, on Elektra EKL 267.

Collin Chua was also very helpful during a period when Tony was on leave; thank you, Collin. Tony Mitchell and Kim Poole read the final draft of the thesis and provided some valuable and timely feedback. Cheers. Ian Collinson, Michelle Phillipov and Diana Springford each recommended readings; Zac Dadic sent some hard to find recordings to me from interstate; Andrew Khedoori offered me a show at 2SER-FM, where I learnt about some of the artists in this study, and where I had the good fortune to interview Dawn McCarthy; and Brendan Smyly and Diana Blom are valued colleagues of mine at University of Western Sydney who have consistently been up for robust discussions of research matters. Many thanks to you all. My friend Stephen Creswell’s amazing record collection has been readily available to me and has proved an invaluable resource. A hearty thanks! And most significant has been the support of my partner Zoë. Thanks and love to you for the many ways you helped to create a space where this research might take place.

Written by and for members of the burgeoning scene, The Broadside was a central resource for information on folk performances and venues and throughout the region, covering coffeehouses, concert halls, festivals, and radio and television appearances. The rapid growth of the folk scene in Boston during the mid- 1950s was propelled in part by the popularity of hootenannies held at the YMCA and local hotels, and by a growing number of live music venues, catching on especially in the city's colleges.

  • Club 47 ® Club 47 ®
    Club 47 ® Club 47 ® Honoring the past, Celebrating the future The Club 47 concert series, across the years and around the country, has been a club house for stars of the acoustic music world and a springboard for emerging talent. Most of all, it’s been an extraordinary musical experience for millions of fans of all ages, in concert halls and on radio and television. Here’s how it began. The Club 47 once was a coffee house in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Although it was only open ten years (January, 1958 to April, 1968) and seated only about 80 people, it became the flagship of the Boston area’s coffee house armada and one of the centers of the 1960s folk music revival. It hosted many of the heroes of traditional music: Appalachian dulcimer players, Cowboy singers and storytellers, Delta blues men and women, gospel groups, Celtic artists, jug bands, bluegrass bands... legendary artists from around the globe. You could also hear new voices at the Club 47 ... the young Joan Baez trying out a Child ballad for the first time, or that new kid, Bob Dylan, up from New York, testing the crowd’s reaction to some new lyrics set to an old melody. Judy Collins, Richie Havens, Van Morrison, Eric Anderson, Tom Paxton, John Hammond, Tom Rush and a host of others came to that tiny room, and learned. They learned how to listen, sitting at the feet of giants. They learned songs, and how to sing and play them. And when they took their turns on that stage, they learned how to make those songs their own, and how to build new ones on the firm foundation of tradition, and began..

    Touch, Transcendence and Immanence in Film By Andrew Murphie Spring 2009 Issue of KINEMA TAKING OFF THE GLOVES: TOUCH, TRANSCENDENCE AND IMMANENCE IN FILM Beginning with excessive acts of both violence and compassion, as depicted in Martin Scorsese’s Bring out the Dead (1999, USA), I attempt to sketch the play between transcendence and immanence in film. In particular, I am interested in Paul Schrader’s philosophical discussion of ”transcendental style”, as well as his film work, and in the work of Scorsese, Yasujiro Ozu, and Gilles Deleuze concerning the film relations between transcendence and immanence. In the process I hope to foreground the role of touch in film and begin to question an aesthetic syntax in film and in philosophy. In a way the moment of bashing and compassion in Bringing Out the Dead that I shall begin with crystallises a history of ambiguity and anxiety surrounding issues of touch, immanence and transcendence. I shall try and tease out only a few moments in this history. High on a Cocktail of Vitamins A baseball bat to the body or unthinking compassion? Such incompossible worlds live side by side in the Martin Scorsese directed/Paul Schrader written film, Bringing Out the Dead. Parallelling Taxi Driver (1976, USA), this film should perhaps have been called ”Ambulance Driver”. It argues with Taxi Driver’s transcendental nihilism, and at the same time picks up where it left off. In one of many scenes that are difficult to watch, a sociopath of a paramedic, Tom (Tom Sizemore), goes into dark corridor populated by homeless people and takes a baseball bat to Noel (Marc Anthony), one of the more unfortunate street characters in the film.
