Tribute to Three Giants Figures of the Sixties' Pop
TRIBUTE TO THREE GIANTS FIGURES OF THE SIXTIES’ POP MUSIC IN THE 50th ANNIVERSAIRE OF THEIR DEATH. ALAN WILSON, JIMI HENDRIX AND JANIS JOPLIN: ASTROLOGICAL REVIEW OF THREE 27’ CLUB MEMBERS. We were at the end of the “sixties”, a remarkable decade of 20th century for popular music, revolutionary movements, technological achievements and radical changes in human relationships. It was also the time of “hippie liberation”, the spread of drugs through young people. Everything was fine when, just in the span of thirty days, three outstanding members of musical background suddenly died. 1970, September the 3th: Alan Wilson, “Canned Heat” guitar, harmonica and vocal, commit suicide at home of another member group, Bob Hite, in Topanga Canyon, California. An overdose was the cause of his death. He was 27 years old. 1970, September the 18th: Jimi Hendrix, one of the bests guitarrist of all times, share his last night with Monica Dannemann in Samarkand Hotel, London. When she woke up Jimi was inconscious, yet breathe. He was moved at St. Mary Abbot Hospital, but he was not alive. The cause of his death: asphyxia per vomit. His partner declared that Jimi had had seven tablets of Vesparax, a barbituric, say, 18 times the recommended dose. He was 27 years old. 1970, October the 4th: Janis Joplin, a singer and contraculture icon of the sixties was found dead in her hotel room, at Los Angeles, just when she was going to record the vocal part of Buried Alive in the Blues next morning. A portent, maybe a synchronicity. The official cause of her death was an heroine overdose, probably combined with alcohol effects. -
Rock Weekend
Achim Schäffer Rock Weekend Leseprobe Billy Joel: Uptown Girl Meine Kindheitswelt in Waghäusel war klein und übersichtlich. So alle 2-3 Jahre bekam unsere Familie weiteren Zuwachs, ehe wir ab 1977 komplett waren. Vier Geschwister, drei Jungen, ein Mädchen. Ab 1978 leisteten wir uns einen jährlichen Sommerurlaub in Ungarn. Ungarn. Die Heimat meiner Großeltern. Die Vorfahren sind vermutlich um 1785 nach Ungarn ausgewandert. Donauschwaben. Die zwischen Donau und Neckar, auf der Schwäbischen Alb liegenden Dörfer litten damals unter Verheerungen der andauernden Kriegszüge. Auch das Anerbrecht (Ahnenerbe) – welches ein Kind als Alleinerben vorsieht – trug dazu bei, dass für viele Dorfbewohner die Auswanderung als einziger Ausweg übrigblieb. Die verlockenden Angebote des Ansiedlungspatents: Völlige Glaubensfreiheit, Haus, Feld und die dazugehörenden Wirtschaftsgeräte wie Zuchttiere. Für Handwerker 50 Gulden zur Einrichtung ihrer Werkstatt und vor allem die 10- jährige Steuer- und Abgabenfreiheit stimmten die letzten Zweifelnden positiv. Und so siedelten sie sich im Dorf Kirwa (Mariahalom), ca. 40 Kilometer nordöstlich vor Budapest an und arbeiteten. Sie betrieben überwiegend Landwirtschaft und bildeten kleine deutsche Enklaven im Österreich-Ungarischen Reich. Arm, aber nicht unglücklich. Altdeutsche Traditionen und Gewohnheiten überlebten wie die Sprache, wie die Menschen. Im 2. Weltkrieg kämpfte mein Opa für Ungarn in Russland. Sicherlich wichtig! Das kostete ihn ein kugelgroßes Loch im Zeh, aber noch schmerzhafter: Der Krieg kostete ihn seine Heimat. Wer deutsche Wurzeln hatte, sollte den neuen politischen Warschauer Pakt verlassen. Vertreibung. Flucht. Also musste die Familie Schäffer im April 1946 mit ihren bald drei kleinen Kindern – mein Vater ist 1947 geboren – von vorne beginnen. In Deutschland. In einem Land, einer Umgebung, unter Menschen, denen 12 Jahre lang einindoktriniert worden war, dass alles Fremde schlecht ist. -
Roots Radical – Place, Power and Practice in Punk Entrepreneurship Sarah Louise Drakopoulou Dodd
Roots radical – Place, power and practice in punk entrepreneurship Sarah Louise Drakopoulou Dodd The significance continues to grow of scholarship that embraces critical and contextualized entrepreneurship, seeking rich explorations of diverse entrepreneurship contexts. Following these influences, this study explores the potentialized context of punk entrepreneurship. The Punk Rock band Rancid has a 20-year history of successfully creating independent musical and related creative enterprises from the margins of the music industry. The study draws on artefacts, interviews and videos created by and around Rancid to identify and analyse this example of marginal, alternative entrepreneurship. A three-part analytic frame was applied to analysing these artefacts. Place is critical to Rancid’s enterprise, grounding the band socially, culturally, geographically and politically. Practice also plays an important role with Rancid’s activities encompassing labour, making music, movement and human interactions. The third, and most prevalent, dimension of alterity is that of power which includes data related to dominance, subordination, exclusion, control and liberation. Rancid’s entrepreneurial story is depicted as cycles, not just a linear journey, but following more complicated paths – from periphery to centre, and back again; returning to roots, whilst trying to move forwards too; grounded in tradition but also radically focused on dramatic change. Paradox, hybridized practices, and the significance of marginal place as a rich resource also emerged from the study. Keywords: entrepreneurship; social construction; punk rock; paradox; marginality; periphery Special thanks are due to all the punks and skins who have engaged with my reading of the Rancid story, and given me so much support and feedback along the way, especially Rancid’s drummer, Branden Steineckert, Jesse from Machete Manufacturing, Kostis, Tassos (Rancid Punx Athens Crew) and Panayiotis. -

A History of the 27 Club Through the Lives of Brian Jones, Jim Morrison
DOCUMENT 4 the 27 club – Term. - clb 27: A History of the 27 Club Through the Lives of Brian Jones, Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Kurt Cobain, and Amy Winehouse by Howard Sounes (Goodreads Author) 3.44 · Rating details · 447 Ratings · 93 Reviews When singer Amy Winehouse was found dead at her London home in 2011, the press inducted her into what Kurt Cobain’s mother named the 27 Club*. "Now he’s gone and joined that stupid club,” she said in 1994, after being told that her son, the front man of Nirvana, had committed suicide. "I told him not to….” Kurt’s mom was referring to the extraordinary roll call of iconic stars who died at the same young age. The Big Six are Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison of the Doors, Kurt Cobain and, now, Amy Winehouse. All were talented. All were dissipated. All were 27. Journalists write about the curse of the 27 Club as if there is a supernatural reason for this series of deaths. Others invoke astrology, numerology, and conspiracy theories to explain what has become a modern mystery. In this haunting book, author Howard Sounes conducts the definitive forensic investigation into the lives and deaths of the six most iconic members of the Club, plus another forty-four music industry figures who died at 27, to discover what, apart from coincidence, this phenomenon signifies. In a grimly fascinating journey through the dark side of the music business over six decades, Sounes uncovers a common story of excess, madness, and self-destruction. -

American Punk: the Relations Between Punk Rock, Hardcore, and American Culture
American Punk: The Relations between Punk Rock, Hardcore, and American Culture Gerfried Ambrosch ABSTRACT Punk culture has its roots on both sides of the Atlantic. Despite continuous cross-fertiliza- tion, the British and the American punk traditions exhibit distinct features. There are notable aesthetic and lyrical differences, for instance. The causes for these dissimilarities stem from the different cultural, social, and economic preconditions that gave rise to punk in these places in the mid-1970s. In the U. K., punk was mainly a movement of frustrated working-class youths who occupied London’s high-rise blocks and whose families’ livelihoods were threatened by a declin- ing economy and rising unemployment. Conversely, in America, punk emerged as a middle-class phenomenon and a reaction to feelings of social and cultural alienation in the context of suburban life. Even city slickers such as the Ramones, New York’s counterpart to London’s Sex Pistols and the United States’ first ‘official’ well-known punk rock group, made reference to the mythology of suburbia (not just as a place but as a state of mind, and an ideal, as well), advancing a subver- sive critique of American culture as a whole. Engaging critically with mainstream U.S. culture, American punk’s constitutive other, punk developed an alternative sense of Americanness. Since the mid-1970s, punk has produced a plethora of bands and sub-scenes all around the world. This phenomenon began almost simultaneously on both sides of the Atlantic—in London and in New York, to be precise—and has since spread to the most remote corners of the world. -
