The entire Gainesville music scene was built around songs: Top Forty songs on the radio, songs on albums, original songs performed on stage by bands and other musical ensembles. The late sixties was a golden age of rock and pop music and the rise of the rock band as a musical entity. As the counterculture marched for equal rights and against the war in Vietnam, a sonic revolution was occurring in the recording studio and on the concert stage. New sounds were being created through multitrack recording techniques, and record producers such as Phil Spector and George Martin became integral parts of the creative process. Musicians expanded their sonic palette by experimenting with the sounds of sitar, and through sound-modifying electronic ef- fects such as the wah-wah pedal, fuzz tone, and the Echoplex tape-de- lay unit, as well as a variety of new electronic keyboard instruments and synthesizers. The sound of every musical instrument contributed toward the overall sound of a performance or recording, and bands were begin- ning to expand beyond the core of drums, bass, and a couple guitars.

America's Changing Mirror: How Popular Music Reflects Public
AMERICA’S CHANGING MIRROR: HOW POPULAR MUSIC REFLECTS PUBLIC OPINION DURING WARTIME by Christina Tomlinson Campbell University Faculty Mentor Jaclyn Stanke Campbell University Entertainment is always a national asset. Invaluable in times of peace, it is indispensable in wartime. All those who are working in the entertainment industry are building and maintaining national morale both on the battlefront and on the home front. 1 Franklin D. Roosevelt, June 12, 1943 Whether or not we admit it, societies change in wartime. It is safe to say that after every war in America’s history, society undergoes large changes or embraces new mores, depending on the extent to which war has affected the nation. Some of the “smaller wars” in our history, like the Mexican-American War or the Spanish-American War, have left little traces of change that scarcely venture beyond some territorial adjustments and honorable mentions in our textbooks. Other wars have had profound effects in their aftermath or began as a result of a 1 Telegram to the National Conference of the Entertainment Industry for War Activities, quoted in John Bush Jones, The Songs that Fought the War: Popular Music and the Home Front, 1939-1945 (Lebanon, NH: University Press of New England, 2006), 31. catastrophic event: World War I, World War II, Vietnam, and the current wars in the Middle East. These major conflicts create changes in society that are experienced in the long term, whether expressed in new legislation, changed social customs, or new ways of thinking about government. While some of these large social shifts may be easy to spot, such as the GI Bill or the baby boom phenomenon in the 1940s and 1950s, it is also interesting to consider the changed ways of thinking in modern societies as a result of war and the degree to which information is filtered.

Journal of the Music & Entertainment Industry Educators Association Volume 12, Number 1 (2012) Bruce Ronkin, Editor Northeastern University Published with Support from The 1969 Creedence Clearwater Revival Recording Contract and How it Shaped the Future of the Group and its Members Hank Bordowitz Bordowitz Media Werx Bergen Community College By 1969, the record business had been around in some way, shape, or form for nearly eighty years. For an octogenarian, it had never been healthier. A study commissioned by John Wiley of Columbia Records said that the business had grown 250 percent in the decade between 1955 and 1965. It predicted the record business would double in size again within the next decade. “The end of the upward trend is not yet in sight,” added Wiley. “Our future has never held more promise” (Rood 1965). With the passing of rock and roll into just rock, the day of the mu- sic business robber barons had begun to fade. The previous decade saw musicians with massive hit records living in poverty, contracted to virtual slavery as recording artists. As Etta James once said, “I…started my show business life living in a private hotel where you could cook. Other entertainers were there, like Curtis Mayfield. Ev- erybody lived in this one hotel. I was the one who had the kitchen. We used to put all our money together to eat. At that time, we would get two cents, three cents, five cents for bottles and at the end of the day we would get our money together and we’d get some food and cook it.

John Fogerty Is Rehearsing for His first Extended Live Shows in More Than a Decade
May 21, 1997--- LOS ANGELES---The clouds of mystery are lifting over the mountainside studio where John Fogerty is rehearsing for his first extended live shows in more than a decade. Wearing a green plaid workshirt and pressed blue jeans, the creative force behind Creedence Clearwater Revival is preparing to hit the road to promote his new "Blue Moon Swamp" record, released Tuesday on Warner Bros. But the majority of the dates in New York, Los Angeles and Chicago will consist of Creedence hits. Fronting a quartet, Fogerty will even play some of the classics through vintage '60s gear. Fogerty has never leaned on Creedence songs as a solo act. Coming to terms with the past may account for the clarity of "Blue Moon Swamp." Full of dobros, guitars and passionate vocals, it is Fogerty's most rootsy album since his self-titled 1975 solo debut. Then again, maybe the clarity was already in place. "It came first," Fogerty says before rehearsal. "I get a lot of the clarity from my wife, Julie (Kramer, who hails from Elkhart, Ind.). Her positiveness helps me every day. That spilled over into my directness with the music, and I became very clear with who I should be. And that's a good thing to know, because there's been times in my life where I wasn't that sure. "(The dark, high-tech 1986 release) Èye of the Zombie' is certainly a great example. So are some of the lost soul meanderings of the '70s, when I made an ill- fated record called `Whodo' that shows up in bootlegs at flea markets.

Born on the Bayou Meaning
Born on the bayou meaning Creedence Clearwater Revival frontman John Fogerty, who wrote the song, had never actually been to a bayou when he wrote the song - he researched it in encyclopedias and imagined a bayou childhood for the song's narrative. They drove 15 minutes to Bayou Forche, where they ate some. "Born on the Bayou" () is the first track on Creedence Clearwater Revival's second album, Bayou Country, released in It was released as the B-side of Released: January 5, Bayou Country / Ultimate Collection / Creedence Clearwater Revival [Box Set] / Platinum / Creedence Clearwater Revival: / / Creedence Clearwater. The bayou is a sinister place. These back-woods are water-logged, stagnant, and filled with 'gators. As you cross the green water, still as a mirror, you start. “I hadn't been to Mississippi when I wrote 'Proud Mary,' nor had I been to Louisiana when I wrote 'Born on the Bayou.' Somehow it all just. Born On The Bayou Lyrics: Now, when I was just a little boy / Standin' to my Daddy's knee / My papa said, "Son, don't let the man get you / An' do what he done.

What did you hear, my darling young one?” -Bob Dylan, “A Hard Rain’s a-Gonna Fall,” 1963 In the midst of victorious rhetoric from the government, disturbing insight from the news media, and chaos from the protests, people heard the music of the Vietnam War era. The 1960s was known as a time of change, ranging from revised social norms to changing political stances to new popular music. Everyone seemed to have something to say about the war, musicians being no exception. The folk revival in the 1960s introduced young listeners to a different sound, one of rebellion and critical thought about their country.

Halloween Trick Or Treat 2012
Halloween Profile: Trick or Treat! Trick or Treat Created by Jennifer Sage Profile type: Theme Class (Interval) Intensity: Hard! This engaging and very challenging interval profile is a fun game that requires student input to help decide the next interval. It will take a little organization on your part. You’ll need to create index cards for each song and let your students pick the card from a bag as if they are trick-or-treating (make sure to borrow a Halloween bag from your kids)! The card they pick will be your next “trick” and the “treats” will be the recoveries in between. You’ll have to line up your songs carefully in your iPod so they are easy to scroll to. I’ve included a screenshot of my playlist in iTunes so you can see how I lined mine up. The total is 65 minutes. You can drop Bad Moon Rising and end a little earlier if you must end at an hour. Or, if you only have 45 minutes, choose 5 of your favorite “tricks” from the list, and shorten the profile. There are two warm-up songs and 7 drills that make up the tricks ranging from 3- 1/2 to 5-1/2 minutes. They are either consistent efforts for the full time (most at threshold) or they consist of shorter high-intensity surges with short recoveries. Most are climbs, one is a fast flat, and one contains 3 sprints in 5 minutes. The treats are the recovery songs of 2-1/2 to 3 minutes long.
