  • Crossing Over: from Black Rhythm Blues to White Rock 'N' Roll
    PART2 RHYTHM& BUSINESS:THE POLITICAL ECONOMY OF BLACKMUSIC Crossing Over: From Black Rhythm Blues . Publishers (ASCAP), a “performance rights” organization that recovers royalty pay- to WhiteRock ‘n’ Roll ments for the performance of copyrighted music. Until 1939,ASCAP was a closed BY REEBEEGAROFALO society with a virtual monopoly on all copyrighted music. As proprietor of the com- positions of its members, ASCAP could regulate the use of any selection in its cata- logue. The organization exercised considerable power in the shaping of public taste. Membership in the society was generally skewed toward writers of show tunes and The history of popular music in this country-at least, in the twentieth century-can semi-serious works such as Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart, Cole Porter, George be described in terms of a pattern of black innovation and white popularization, Gershwin, Irving Berlin, and George M. Cohan. Of the society’s 170 charter mem- which 1 have referred to elsewhere as “black roots, white fruits.’” The pattern is built bers, six were black: Harry Burleigh, Will Marion Cook, J. Rosamond and James not only on the wellspring of creativity that black artists bring to popular music but Weldon Johnson, Cecil Mack, and Will Tyers.’ While other “literate” black writers also on the systematic exclusion of black personnel from positions of power within and composers (W. C. Handy, Duke Ellington) would be able to gain entrance to the industry and on the artificial separation of black and white audiences. Because of ASCAP, the vast majority of “untutored” black artists were routinely excluded from industry and audience racism, black music has been relegated to a separate and the society and thereby systematically denied the full benefits of copyright protection.

Having played the instru- ment for, then, almost two decades, I thought that a novelist would not, could not, feature specialty instruments such as the C-melody sax if he did not play the horn himself. Once the saxophone had caught my attention, I noticed all sorts of uncommon references that seemed to confirm my hunch that Thomas Pynchon himself played the instrument: McClintic Sphere’s 4½ reed, the contra- bass sax of Against the Day, Gravity’s Rainbow’s Charlie Parker passage.

This record really rocks – 22 tracks recorded by an important but little-reissued Oklahoma-born singer from the classic era of rock'n'roll! G Here are all 12 tracks issued on six singles on the CANDLELIGHT,BULLSEYE, and LEN record labels between 1957 and 1961! G Also another 10 vocal and instrumental tracks not originally issued – and with Big Al Downing on piano! G When Clyde’s So Young/Hoy Hoy hit #68 in June 1957 it was the first Hot 100 entry by an artist based in the Lubbock area of Texas – beating Clyde’s high school mate Buddy Holly by six months! G Relocating to Pennsylvania in 1958, Clyde recorded in New York and registered Top 30 hits in Canada with So Young, Baby Shame and Nobody’s Darling! G Clyde’s TV appearances included 'Bandstand' and 'The Patti Page Show'! G The 28-page booklet by Wayne Russell expertly tells Clyde’s story from Oklahoma to Lubbock, to Scranton and back home. It contains rare photographs and interviews with Clyde Stacy! G Now, Clyde is scheduled to make his European debut at the Hemsby Rock'n'Roll Weekender in May 2011, and plans to 'warm-up' at the Las Vegas Rockabilly Weekend in April.
