He also recognized the total independence of the Baltic Republics and has offered the right of secession to the Ukraine and all other Soviet states, along with reaffirming his pledge of noninterference in Eastern Europe and the rest of the world. All nuclear weapons in Soviet controlled Europe have been dismanteled and the Warsaw military forces have reportedly thrown down their weapons and offered themselves as prisoners to their NATO counterparts. Mr. Gorbachev said that he looks to the West, and particularly to the United States, for moral support and spiritual guidance during this important period of Soviet transformation. He said the Russian people "humbly apologize" for their past crimes and beg the United States to use its military strength to insure that "we can never commit such atrocities again."

The Heart of Rock and Soul by Dave Marsh
The Heart of Rock and Soul by Dave Marsh 20 BE MY BABY, The Ronettes Produced by Phil Spector; written by Phil Spector, Ellie Greenwich, and Jeff Barry Philles 116 1963 Billboard: #2 DA DOO RON RON, The Crystals Produced by Phil Spector; written by Phil Spector, Ellie Greenwich, and Jeff Barry Philles 112 1963 Billboard: #3 CHRISTMAS (BABY PLEASE COME HOME), Darlene Love Produced by Phil Spector; written by Phil Spector, Ellie Greenwich, and Jeff Barry Philles 119 1963 Did not make pop charts To hear folks talk, Phil Spector made music out of a solitary vision. But the evidence of his greatest hits insists that he was heavily dependent on a variety of assistance. Which makes sense: Record making is fundamentally collaborative. Spector associates like engineer Larry Levine, arranger Jack Nitzsche, and husband-wife songwriters Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich were simply indispensable to his teen-art concoctions. Besides them, every Spector track featured a dozen or more musicians. The constant standouts were' drummer Hal Blaine, one of the most inventive and prolific in rock history, and saxophonist Steve Douglas. Finally, there were vast differences among Spector's complement of singers. An important part of Spector's genius stemmed from his ability to recruit, organize, and provide leadership within such a musical community. Darlene Love (who also recorded for Spector with the Crystals and Bob B. Soxx and the Blue Jeans) ranks just beneath Aretha Franklin among female rock singers, and "Christmas" is her greatest record, though it was never a hit. (The track probably achieved its greatest notice in the mid-eighties, when it was used over the opening credits of Joe Dante's film, Gremlins.) Spector's Wall of Sound, with its continuously thundering horns and strings, never seemed more massive than it does here.

THE BRILL BUILDING, 1619 Broadway (Aka 1613-23 Broadway, 207-213 West 49Th Street), Manhattan Built 1930-31; Architect, Victor A
Landmarks Preservation Commission March 23, 2010, Designation List 427 LP-2387 THE BRILL BUILDING, 1619 Broadway (aka 1613-23 Broadway, 207-213 West 49th Street), Manhattan Built 1930-31; architect, Victor A. Bark, Jr. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1021, Lot 19 On October 27, 2009 the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation of the Brill Building and the proposed designation of the related Landmark site. The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with provisions of law. Three people spoke in support of designation, including representatives of the owner, New York State Assembly Member Richard N. Gottfried, and the Historic Districts Council. There were no speakers in opposition to designation.1 Summary Since its construction in 1930-31, the 11-story Brill Building has been synonymous with American music – from the last days of Tin Pan Alley to the emergence of rock and roll. Occupying the northwest corner of Broadway and West 49th Street, it was commissioned by real estate developer Abraham Lefcourt who briefly planned to erect the world’s tallest structure on the site, which was leased from the Brill Brothers, owners of a men’s clothing store. When Lefcourt failed to meet the terms of their agreement, the Brills foreclosed on the property and the name of the nearly-complete structure was changed from the Alan E. Lefcourt Building to the, arguably more melodious sounding, Brill Building. Designed in the Art Deco style by architect Victor A. Bark, Jr., the white brick elevations feature handsome terra-cotta reliefs, as well as two niches that prominently display stone and brass portrait busts that most likely portray the developer’s son, Alan, who died as the building was being planned.

Tin Pan Alley
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Salford Institutional Repository Tin Pan Alley Continuum Encyclopedia of Popular Music of the World , Vol. 8, Genres: North America The term ‘Tin Pan Alley’ began as a playful nickname for West 28 th Street in New York City where a number of new style music publishers had begun establishing offices in the 1890s and has since taken on a variety of meanings. Monroe H. Rosenfeld is credited with the coinage, suggested to him by the clangorous sound of pianos pouring out of the open windows where songwriters were plying their trade. Eventually the term was used to refer collectively to the songs that were the product of these publishers as well as to this very large group of publishers themselves as a whole. In a third and far wider meaning Tin Pan Alley refers generally to the professional song writing tradition that developed in the United States. The Commercial Background The publishers of Tin Pan Alley were characterized by their sole concentration upon popular music. Earlier in the nineteenth century music publishing in the United States was not centralized. A number of large firms had established themselves in cities such as Boston, Chicago, St Louis, and Cincinnati; these concerns published and distributed throughout the country all types of music ranging from the classics to hymnals and instruction manuals: in short, all forms of printed music. The new style music publishers who set up operations in New York City in the late nineteenth century dropped the publication all other types of music in order to concentrate exclusively upon popular 1 songs, a move founded on the recognition of new markets for these songs, and the possibility of greater profits.

Is Rock Music in Decline? a Business Perspective
Jose Dailos Cabrera Laasanen Is Rock Music in Decline? 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.

Be My Baby”—The Ronettes (1963) Added to the National Registry: 2006 Essay by Cary O’Dell
“Be My Baby”—The Ronettes (1963) Added to the National Registry: 2006 Essay by Cary O’Dell The Ronettes Original label Phil Spector Instantly infectious and memorable, “Be My Baby” has been described as the “Record of the Century” and the “greatest pop record ever made.” It was recorded by the Ronettes in 1963. It was written by Phil Spector, Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich and was produced by Phil Spector. It was named to the National Recording Registry in 2006. The Ronettes were a group of girls from Spanish Harlem, sisters Veronica (“Ronnie”) and Estelle Bennett and their cousin Nedra Talley. Before becoming a trio, the young women were a group of five joined by two other cousins, Elaine and Diane. (Sometimes they were also joined by their male cousin, Ira.) They sang together and perfected their harmonies at their grandmother’s house before branching out to play local dances and talent contests. Along with refining their line-up and sound, the girls also defined their look. In his biography of Phil Spector, author Mick Brown says of the group: The standard demeanor of girl groups of the day was one of demure innocence…But the Ronettes looked as if it was a Saturday night and they were cruising for trouble—figure- hugging dresses, hair piled into improbable beehives and lashings of mascara, which transformed the youthful high school girls into vamps. Today, the Ronettes are nearly as remembered for their look (which would later be largely carbon-copied by Amy Winehouse) as for their sound. After first being signed by and recording for the Colpix label (under the name Ronnie and the Relatives), the Ronettes came to the attention of Phil Spector who immediately took a liking to the group and especially to its de facto leader Ronnie.

Carol Connors, Who Co-Wrote the Song with Bill Conti and Ayn Robbins
RUNWAY Exclusive It’s an image burned into the world’s collective conscious: a lone man, dressed in grey sweatshirt and pants, running through Philadelphia and up the steps of the art museum. He’s no thief in the night – he’s “Rocky Balboa”. And the song he celebrates to at the top of the stairs, Gonna Fly Now, also known as the Theme to Rocky, is one of the most recognized songs in the world. So well known and beloved, in fact, that it’s been used in many places since Rocky appeared in 1976, including scenes in television and films like The Fresh Prince of Bel Aire and You Don’t Mess With the Zohan, at Philadelphia Eagles sporting events, and even as a U.S. presidential campaign song. Gonna Fly Now was also nominated for an Academy Award in 1977 – just one of the many distinctions that belong to singer and songwriter Carol Connors, who co-wrote the song with Bill Conti and Ayn Robbins. You may know Connors from her early career; in 1956, she was the lead singer in a little group known as The Teddy Bears, which also included Phil Spector. Spector wrote their best-known song, To Know Him is to Love Him, specifically to show off Connors’ voice, and in 1958 the song reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100. It was such a powerful song that it attracted the attention of Elvis Presley, who, not long after hearing it, sent for Photo by Timothy Fielding Connors and began a serious relationship with her.
