    The ABC of Sheffield music nostalgia - SLIDESHOW - The Star Page 1 of 2 The ABC of Sheffield music nostalgia - SLIDESHOW Video See all the bands in our slideshow Just like old times: Heaven 17’s Glenn Gregory and Martyn Ware, top right ABC’s Martin Fry and, above, Phil Oakey « Previous « Previous Next » Next » ADVERTISEMENT Published Date: 15 December 2008 By John Quinn A MAJOR pop music event took place on Saturday night. But let's ignore The X Factor. Several thousand Sheffielders did, instead opting for a night of not-just-nostalgia with three of the best-known acts ever to hail from around here – The Human League, ABC and Heaven 17. Whatever entertainment Simon Cowell's crew provides, one negative effect is spoiling the suspense and potential surprise of the race for the Christmas number one single. However the crowd at an impressively almost-full Arena preferred to hark back to the days when the festive chart-topper could be made by a weird synthesizer group whose singer had responded to a split in the ranks by recruiting two teenage girls with no musical talent except the ability to dance and sing. Well, sort of... The city's music scene at that time consisted largely of electronic experimentalists, some of whom suddenly discovered they could write pop songs. Very good pop songs at that, which sold by the bucketload until the tide of fashion changed. The acts still exist, albeit after several line-up changes each, and occasionally release albums to diminishing returns, so whoever decided to combine all three pulled off a masterstroke.

  • George Michael Was Britain's Biggest Pop Star of the 1980S, First with The
    George Michael was Britain’s biggest pop star of the 1980s, first with the duo Wham! and then as a solo artist. The Three Crowns played a small but significant part in his story. After Wham! made their initial chart breakthrough with the single Young Guns (Go for It) in 1982, George’s songwriting gift brought them giant hits including Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go and Freedom, and they became leading lights of the 80s boom in British pop music, alongside Duran Duran, Culture Club and Spandau Ballet, even exporting it behind the Iron Curtain. His first solo album Faith, released in 1987, sold 25 million copies, and George sold more than 100 million albums worldwide with Wham! and under his own name. George was born Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou in Finchley, north London. His father, Kyriacos Panayiotou, was a Greek Cypriot restaurateur, and his mother an English dancer, Lesley Angold. In the late 1960s the family moved to Edgware, where George attended Kingsbury School, before they moved to the affluent Hertfordshire town of Radlett in the mid-1970s. Bushey Meads Comprehensive 1974 - 1981 George – a wimp Andy - cocksure In September 1975 a twelve year old George showed up at Bushey Meads School keen to impress as the new boy and was introduced to Andy Ridgeley who had already been impressing for a full year. Andy recalled their meeting as follows; “I remember at the time we were playing King of the Wall. As he was the new boy we goaded him into it. I was up there and he threw me off.

  • Forest of Imagination: Meet the Artists, Including Heaven 17'S Martyn Ware
    ⏲ 06 June 2019, 16:39 (BST) Forest of Imagination: meet the artists Meet five artists who are part of Bath’s pop-up contemporary arts event Forest of Imagination, taking place 20-24 June 2019. Find out the music that most moves Heaven 17’s Martyn Ware; the favourite artworks of renowned paper-cutter Jessica Palmer; and where Tate-exhibitor Bob and Roberta Smith feels happiest. Get to know Bath based artists Clare Day and Perry Harris, and why Forest of Imagination draws them back, year after year. Martyn Ware A founding member of both The Human League and Heaven 17, Martyn is a London based musician, composer, arranger, record producer, and music programmer. In 2001 he co-founded Illustrious Company to exploit the creative possibilities of three-dimensional sound technology. Where do you get your inspiration for new soundscapes? The piece I’m creating for Forest 2019 stems from my fascination with reminiscence and memory. I’m exploring the bond that the very young and the very old have with one another. These people are at the opposite ends of their life but share so many insights about life. I thought I’d reveal this affinity by putting the words of the old in the mouths of the young and vice-versa. What pieces of music most move you? There’s no end to beauty in music. Symphony No. 9 by Gustav Mahler makes me want to cry. Samuel Barber’s ‘Adagio for String’ (the theme music to ‘Platoon’), is another powerful piece. John William’s score for ‘Close Encounters of a Third Kind’ is masterful.

  • Smore Dangerous Songs: and the Banned Played On
    SMore Dangerous Songs: And the Banned Played On 16 songs banned by the BBC By the Britain’s Most Dangerous Songs production team The Kinks – Lola Written by singer Ray Davies, Lola is about a relationship between a man and a “woman” who turns out to be a transvestite. But it wasn’t this gender confusion that worried the BBC. The song was banned for including the words “coca-cola” which was against their policy on product placement. Davies had to interrupt the band’s American tour to fly back to London to re-record the lyric as “cherry-cola” for the single release. The Sex Pistols – Anarchy In The UK The Sex Pistols’ debut single, Anarchy in the UK was banned following their controversial appearance on the TV news programme, Today. The song had already been played on the radio but the band had caused such outrage by swearing on television that they were banished from the airwaves. Their next single, God Save The Queen was also banned but it didn’t stop The Sex Pistols storming their way up the charts. John Leyton – Johnny Remember Me This was the first and only No.1 hit for singer and actor John Leyton who starred in the TV series, Harpers West One. The song tells the story of a young man haunted by his dead lover and was one of many ‘death discs’ popular at the time but banned by the BBC. Other censored ‘splatter platters’ include, Tell Laura I Love Her by Ray Ricky Valance, Teen Angel by Mark Dinning and Terry by Twinkle.

  • What Were the Forces That Led to the Rise of New Wave?
    Are We Not New Wave? Modern Pop at the Turn of the 1980s Theo Cateforis http://www.press.umich.edu/titleDetailDesc.do?id=152565 The University of Michigan Press, 2011 Q&A with Theo Cateforis, author of Are We Not New Wave? Modern Pop at the Turn of the 1980s New wave emerged at the turn of the 1980s as a pop music movement cast in the image of punk rock's sneering demeanor, yet rendered more accessible and sophisticated. Artists such as the Cars, Devo, the Talking Heads, and the Human League leapt into the Top 40 with a novel sound that broke with the staid rock clichés of the 1970s and pointed the way to a more modern pop style. In Are We Not New Wave? Theo Cateforis provides the first musical and cultural history of the new wave movement, charting its rise out of mid- 1970s punk to its ubiquitous early 1980s MTV presence and downfall in the mid-1980s. The book also explores the meanings behind the music's distinctive traits—its characteristic whiteness and nervousness; its playful irony, electronic melodies, and crossover experimentations. Cateforis traces new wave's modern sensibilities back to the space-age consumer culture of the late 1950s/early 1960s. Theo Cateforis is Assistant Professor of Music History and Cultures in the Fine Arts Department at Syracuse University. His research is in the areas of American Music, Popular Music Studies, and Twentieth-Century Art Music. He was editor of the anthology The Rock History Reader. The University of Michigan Press: What were the forces that led to the rise of new wave? Theo Cateforis: New wave initially circulated as a synonym for the punk rock movement that emerged in the mid-1970s.

  • Tony Hadley Official Biography
    Tony Hadley Official Biography Tony Hadley, the eldest son of Josephine and Patrick, was born at The Royal Free Hospital, Islington, London on 2 June 1960. He attended Dame Alice Owen’s Grammar School and thought his future lay in medicine but, after winning a holiday singing competition, decided that his vocation was as a singer … the rest as they say, is history … SPANDAU BALLET – THE 80’s PHENOMENON Pioneers of the 80’s New Romantic movement, Spandau Ballet formed in 1978 and had numerous chart topping singles and albums all over the world, some of the most memorable being the singles “Gold”, “Only When You Leave”, “Lifeline”, the epic “Through the Barricades” and of course the international number one “True”; the latter famously sampled by PM Dawn in 1991 and featured on Paul Anka’s Rock Swings in 2005. As lead singer of Spandau Ballet, Tony Hadley has, over the years, earned the accolade of being one of pop music’s greatest vocalists. In addition to all the band’s songs, many will remember his prominent vocal contribution to the Band Aid UK charity single “Do They Know It’s Christmas” and subsequent 1985 London appearance at Live Aid. He also performed solo at the Nelson Mandela Concert at Wembley in June 1988. Spandau Ballet reformed in April 2009, and their sold out ‘Reformation Tour’ kicked off in October 2009 with 13 UK Arenas, including three nights at London’s O2, followed by Croatia, Serbia, Italy, Germany, Holland, Belgium, Spain, then on to Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and the UAE.

Time Will Crawl: Representation of 1980s Cold War Culture and Politics in Popular Music in the West By Alex Robbins Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in History University of Portland December 2017 Robbins 1 The Cold War represented more than a power struggle between East and West and the fear of mutually assured destruction. Not only did people fear the loss of life and limb but the very nature of their existence came into question. While deemed the “cold” war due to the lack of a direct military conflict, battle is not all that constitutes a war. A war of ideas took place. Despite the attempt to eliminate outside influence, both East and West felt the impact of each other’s cultural movements.
