This is how it is with most music products, 1000's of pages of submission are not needed, just ask Apple to explain, justify this example , I understand that if Apple set their price and people pay then the argument for it to stop seems weak but their pricing is immoral and exploitative . They know they are the market leader and use their market power to make excessive profits. It seems that they have been guilty of this sort of behaviour in other countries and have been forced to change their pricing, In America they were seen to be charging an unfair price for their sonically inferior product when compared with the CD and were forced to change their pricing. They have been censured recently over their immoral advertising of products and "4G" compatibility Hopefully something can be done to ensure that Australia is not just an easy target for huge corporations like Apple Yours sincerely PAUL BARKER Music a Rock i Warren Zevon Album Review After the release of Warren Zevon's fourth album, Bad Luck Streak in Dancing School, he was clean and sober for the first time years, and on-stage he was determined to make the most of his newrtound strength and self-control.

  • On 4Th July 2001 Jill & I Flew to California to Spend Some Time with Our Friends Debra & Andrew Teton in Santa Barbara A
    LINER NOTE HEAVEN! On 4th July 2001 Jill & I flew to California to spend some time with our friends Debra & Andrew Teton in Santa Barbara and watch a few fireworks on the beach – oh, and catch a Spy Boy gig at Gaineys Winery. We also met Iris Rudeseal for the first time and I became firm friends with Emmy’s drummer, Brady Blade. Hazel and I had nearly met him the previous August in Scotland - he had red hair (well ginger actually) in those days and we couldn’t be sure it was him. In any case why would he want to speak with us? As it turned out Brady is one of the nicest guys you could hope to meet and he later introduced me to the music of the Indigo Girls with whom he was touring that year. If you remind me later I’ll tell you about the hilarious night Jill & I went to see them at Concorde II in Brighton. I was desperate to visit Borders on State Street and pick up some Ricky Nelson re-issues, which by some strange quirk of fate had been released to coincide with our visit. It turned out that Andrew knew Ricky’s cousin who regularly regaled him with stories about life with Ricky around the swimming pool (which had since been cemented over!). But then Andrew also bought a wicker rocking chair at Tule Zevon’s garage sale, little knowing that it had previously been occupied by Jordan, son of Warren! That’s the kind of backward friends I have.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Sounding Ceará: Music and the Environment in Northeastern Brazil A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology by Michael Benjamin Silvers 2012 © Copyright by Michael Benjamin Silvers 2012 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Sounding Ceará: Music and the Environment in Northeastern Brazil by Michael Benjamin Silvers Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology University of California, Los Angeles, 2012 Professor Anthony Seeger, Chair This dissertation is an acoustic ethnography of the state of Ceará in Northeastern Brazil, with a focus on drought and the natural environment; drought is of particular symbolic and material importance to people in Ceará. One of the central narratives of life in Ceará involves migration and return. Here, I consider the discursive construction of Ceará as a natural, rural and traditional place through processes of migration and through a recording industry that saw migrants as both consumers and icons for a changing urban and national character. However, my emphasis is on the question of return. I investigate how urbanized and nationalized constructions of Ceará—often imagined as exclusively rural and unremittingly drought-ridden—impact ii contemporary Ceará and its musical culture. How are sounds, musics, practices, natures, geographies, and individuals shaped by mediated representations and caricatures of those very sounds, practices, geographies and identities? Drawing from acoustic ecology (Schafer 1994),
