  • Mike Spadoni Wrote Over 100 Reviews and Articles for Television Heaven and Teletronic Over a Period of Many Years. This Issue Of
    Mike Spadoni wrote over 100 reviews and articles for Television Heaven and Teletronic over a period of many years. This issue of TVH pays tribute to his work by publishing fifty articles on classic (and some not-so- classic) American TV shows and personalities. ichael Spadoni made his living as a radio news producer and writer in Las M Vegas, Nevada. As a child he said he was the first on his block to have his own TV set in his bedroom (an old Packard Bell console), and his family was the first on the block to have a colour set ("a 1965 Sears Silvertone 23 inch console with contemporary styling--mom's preference"). From an early age, Mike, like many of his generation fell in love with 'the box.' Later, Mike entered the full high definition age with a 26 inch Sony Wega LCD set, an HD hard drive recorder, and a recorder for DVD and videotape--plus Dolby surround sound. "But there were times I missed my 1983 Mitsubishi 19 inch set that never failed me in the 20 years I owned it." And like any other television fan, his cabinets were filled with tapes and DVD's of old television series and classic commercials. ("Not to mention a few newer favourites." - he would say). Mike first started writing about US TV shows on Television Heaven's forum and his musings were so insightful and entertaining that I approached him and asked if he'd like to write a regular column for the main website. As a result 'Mike Spadoni's View from America' became a regular feature on Television Heaven for a number of years.

  • Grievous Angel: Gram Parsons and the Country Rock Movement
    GRIEVOUS ANGEL: GRAM PARSONS AND THE COUNTRY ROCK MOVEMENT BY JOHN F. STANISLAWSKI DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Musicology in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2014 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Jeffrey Magee, Chair Associate Professor Gayle Sherwood Magee Associate Professor Gabriel Solis Associate Professor Jim Hansen ABSTRACT The country rock movement emerged in Southern California in the mid-1960s and was comprised of musicians who, through diverse musical practices and conceptual means, sought to fuse elements of country music with other popular genres. Developing amidst the social and political turmoil that defined the era, country rock provided a space for musicians and listeners to negotiate both musical and cultural boundaries. This dissertation provides a critical analysis of the life, legacy, and music of one of the movement’s central figures: Gram Parsons. Since his death in 1973 at the age of 26, interest in Parsons has steadily increased such that today he is hailed by many critics and fans as the “father of country rock” and the movement’s most influential artist. Much of this posthumous recognition is rooted in idealizations of Parsons’s Southernness, experiences of familial tragedy, fusions of country, rock, blues, and soul, or what he famously called, “cosmic American music,” and the bizarre details of his death. Intended to forge links between Parsons’s biography, music, and idiosyncratic personal style, these elements have been foregrounded by listeners in a way that has allowed Parsons to transcend the limited commercial success he received during his lifetime to attain a nearly mythical status.
