    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

    MCA 700 Discography by David Edwards, Mike Callahan & Patrice Eyries © 2018 by Mike Callahan MCA-700 Midline/Reissue Series: By the time the reissue series reached MCA-700, most of the ABC reissues had been accomplished in the MCA 500-600s. MCA decided that when full price albums were converted to midline prices, the albums needed a new number altogether rather than just making the administrative change. In this series, we get reissues of many MCA albums that were only one to three years old, as well as a lot of Decca reissues. Rather than pay the price for new covers and labels, most of these were just stamped with the new numbers in gold ink on the front covers, with the same jackets and labels with the old catalog numbers.

  • Building Cold War Warriors: Socialization of the Final Cold War Generation
    BUILDING COLD WAR WARRIORS: SOCIALIZATION OF THE FINAL COLD WAR GENERATION Steven Robert Bellavia A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2018 Committee: Andrew M. Schocket, Advisor Karen B. Guzzo Graduate Faculty Representative Benjamin P. Greene Rebecca J. Mancuso © 2018 Steven Robert Bellavia All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Andrew Schocket, Advisor This dissertation examines the experiences of the final Cold War generation. I define this cohort as a subset of Generation X born between 1965 and 1971. The primary focus of this dissertation is to study the ways this cohort interacted with the three messages found embedded within the Cold War us vs. them binary. These messages included an emphasis on American exceptionalism, a manufactured and heightened fear of World War III, as well as the othering of the Soviet Union and its people. I begin the dissertation in the 1970s, - during the period of détente- where I examine the cohort’s experiences in elementary school. There they learned who was important within the American mythos and the rituals associated with being an American. This is followed by an examination of 1976’s bicentennial celebration, which focuses on not only the planning for the celebration but also specific events designed to fulfill the two prime directives of the celebration. As the 1980s came around not only did the Cold War change but also the cohort entered high school. Within this stage of this cohorts education, where I focus on the textbooks used by the cohort and the ways these textbooks reinforced notions of patriotism and being an American citizen.

  • ALAN PARSONS Eye 2 Eye - Live in Madrid (Rock)
    ALAN PARSONS Eye 2 eye - live in madrid (Rock) Année de sortie : 2010 Nombre de pistes : 13 Durée : 68' Support : MP3 Provenance : Reçu du label Formé en 1975 par Alan PARSONS et Eric WOOLFSON, et vite rejoints par de nombreux autres musiciens de renom, les anglais d'ALAN PARSONS PROJECT ont jusqu'en 1990 (et encore maintenant !) "inondé" à satiété les ondes radiophoniques du monde entier avec leurs hits que sont les Eye In The Sky et son prologue Sirius, Don't Answer Me, Psychobabble, I Wouldn't Want To Be like You et autres Games People Play. Après une dizaine d'albums, quelques live plus ou moins "pirates", des compilations best of, l'aventure prend fin et Alan PARSONS continue seul sa carrière sous son nom (je me permets ici de vous renvoyer vers, par exemple, le site internet de BIG BANG et son dossier sur le groupe pour une bibliographie discographique riche et fouillée !). Enregistré en mai 2004 à Madrid en Espagne, Alan PARSONS (claviers, guitare acoustique et chant), ici accompagné de P.J OLSSON (guitare acoustique et chant), G. TOWNSEND (guitares et chant), S. MURPHY (batterie), J. MONTAGNA (basse) et M. FOCARAZZO (claviers), nous offrent un superbe live ou quasiment tous les hits cités ci-dessus du ALAN PARSONS PROJECT s'y trouvent enchaînés. Alan revisite une partie des albums du groupe, de I Robot (1977) à Ammonia Avenue (1984). Et pour les fans quarantenaires qui ont "marché" au son de ses hymnes dans leur jeunesse, ces 13 titres respirent le bonheur et plaquent des retours en arrière chargés d'émotions et de souvenirs pittoresques ! Souvent étiquetée Rock Progressif puis Pop Rock, la musique du groupe est à rapprocher des PINK FLOYD par exemple.
