Listening to Classic Rock Music Featured Instruments/Performances Sometimes there’s something particularly outstanding about or within a song. It could be instrumental technical skill (like a guitar solo), a voice (or harmonizing voices), the overall sound created in the recording studio, the tone of a particular instrument, the precision and energy in a live performance, or just the basic songwriting. Below are short lists (definitely subjective!) of artists and then songs that focus specifically on instrumental skill, tone and live performance. It is worth thinking about all the great artists/songs that do NOT fit on a list like this... Use these few suggestions as a platform for generating your own lists! Guitar (technical ability) Led Zeppelin – Jimmy Page (Heartbreaker, Bron-Yr-Aur) Jimmy Hendrix (Hey Joe, Little wing) Guitar (production/tone quality and/or variety) Pink Floyd – David Gilmour (Time, Pigs) Led Zeppelin – Jimmy Page (Stairway to Heaven) Jimmy Hendrix - (Who Knows) The Who – Pete Townshend (My Generation, Won’t Get Fooled Again) Drums (technique and/or prominently featured) Led Zeppelin – John Bonham (Moby Dick, Black Dog) The Who – Keith Moon (My Generation, Won’t Get Fooled Again) The Beatles – Ringo Starr (Tomorrow Never Knows) Bass (technique and/or prominently featured) Led Zeppelin – John Paul Jones (The Lemon Song, Heartbreaker) The Who – John Entwistle (Babba O’Riley, Pinball Wizard) The Beatles – Paul McCartney (Taxman, A little Help From My Friends) Vocals (skill and/or distinctiveness) The Beatles – John Lennon, Paul McCartney (Come Together, Dear Prudence, Golden Slumbers, Let it Be) The Rolling Stones – Mick Jagger (You Can’t Always Get What You Want, Sympathy for the Devil) Pink Floyd – David Gilmour, Roger Waters (Wish You Were Here, Pigs) David Bowie (Changes, Star Man) The Beach Boys (Good Vibrations, Farmer’s Daughter) Elton John (Rocket Man, Tiny Dancer) Joe Cocker (A little Help From My Friends) The Monkees (Pleasant Valley Sunday) Live performing (albums) Jimi Hendrix (Band of Gypsies) The Who (Live at Leeds) Led Zeppelin (BBC Sessions) .

Midnight Special Songlist
west coast music Midnight Special Please find attached the Midnight Special song list for your review. SPECIAL DANCES for Weddings: Please note that we will need your special dance requests, (I.E. First Dance, Father/Daughter Dance, Mother/Son Dance etc) FOUR WEEKS in advance prior to your event so that we can confirm that the band will be able to perform the song(s) and that we are able to locate sheet music. In some cases where sheet music is not available or an arrangement for the full band is need- ed, this gives us the time needed to properly prepare the music and learn the material. Clients are not obligated to send in a list of general song requests. Many of our clients ask that the band just react to whatever their guests are responding to on the dance floor. Our clients that do provide us with song requests do so in varying degrees. Most clients give us a handful of songs they want played and avoided. Recently, we’ve noticed in increase in cli- ents customizing what the band plays and doesn’t play with very specific detail. If you de- sire the highest degree of control (allowing the band to only play within the margin of songs requested), we ask for a minimum of 100 requests. We want you to keep in mind that the band is quite good at reading the room and choosing songs that best connect with your guests. The more specific/selective you are, know that there is greater chance of losing certain song medleys, mashups, or newly released material the band has.

265 Edward M. Christian*
COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT ANALYSIS IN MUSIC: KATY PERRY A “DARK HORSE” CANDIDATE TO SPARK CHANGE? Edward M. Christian* ABSTRACT The music industry is at a crossroad. Initial copyright infringement judgments against artists like Katy Perry and Robin Thicke threaten millions of dollars in damages, with the songs at issue sharing only very basic musical similarities or sometimes no similarities at all other than the “feel” of the song. The Second Circuit’s “Lay Listener” test and the Ninth Circuit’s “Total Concept and Feel” test have emerged as the dominating analyses used to determine the similarity between songs, but each have their flaws. I present a new test—a test I call the “Holistic Sliding Scale” test—to better provide for commonsense solutions to these cases so that artists will more confidently be able to write songs stemming from their influences without fear of erroneous lawsuits, while simultaneously being able to ensure that their original works will be adequately protected from instances of true copying. * J.D. Candidate, Rutgers Law School, January 2021. I would like to thank my advisor, Professor John Kettle, for sparking my interest in intellectual property law and for his feedback and guidance while I wrote this Note, and my Senior Notes & Comments Editor, Ernesto Claeyssen, for his suggestions during the drafting process. I would also like to thank my parents and sister for their unending support in all of my endeavors, and my fiancée for her constant love, understanding, and encouragement while I juggled writing this Note, working full time, and attending night classes. 265 266 RUTGERS UNIVERSITY LAW REVIEW [Vol.

Thank you both for not giving up on me even when things were moving very slow. I am especially thankful for your support in my work in the combination of popular music/performance studies. A big thank you goes to Siren Leirvåg for guidance in the literature of theatre studies. Everybody at the Institute of Music at UiO for helping me when I came back after my student hiatus in 2007. I cannot over-exaggerate my gratitude towards Rob Lee, webmaster at www.thewho.com for helping me with finding important information on that site and his attempts at getting me an interview with one of the boys. The work being done on that site is fantastic. Also, a big thank you to my fellow Who fans. Discussing Who with you makes liking the band more fun.
