  • A Conversation with Vassar Clements by Frank Goodman (Puremusic.Com, 8/2004)
    A Conversation with Vassar Clements by Frank Goodman (Puremusic.com, 8/2004) Perhaps like many who will enjoy the interview that follows, among my first recollections of Vassar’s playing is the 1972 Nitty Gritty Dirt Band recording Will the Circle Be Unbroken. As long ago as that seems (and is), he’d already been at it for over twenty years! In 1949, although only 14 years old and still in school, he began playing with Bill Monroe, the father of bluegrass. Aside from a few years off early on to check out some other things, Vassar’s been playing music professionally ever since. He’s recognized as the most genre-bending fiddler ever. “The Father of Hillbilly Jazz” is a handle that comes from several CDs he cut at that crossroads, but you can hear jazz and blues in any of the playing he’s done. He grew up listening to big band and Dixieland, and still listens to a lot of it today. Vassar says that many of the tunes he writes or passages he’ll fly into in a solo come from half remembered horn lines deep in his musical memory. Between his beginnings with Bill Monroe and the Circle album, Clements did many years with Jim and Jesse and then years with the late and much loved John Hartford, a lifelong friend who gave him the legendary fiddle he plays today. Circle turned a whole generation of hippies and acoustic music fans on to his music, and the children of that generation are following him today, as his popularity continues to recycle.

  • Dan Hicks’ Caucasian Hip-Hop for Hicksters Published February 19, 2015 | Copyright @2015 Straight Ahead Media
    Dan Hicks’ Caucasian Hip-Hop For Hicksters Published February 19, 2015 | Copyright @2015 Straight Ahead Media Author: Steve Roby Showdate : Feb. 18, 2015 Performance Venue : Yoshi’s Oakland Bay Area legend Dan Hicks performed to a sold-out crowd at Yoshi’s on Wednesday. The audience was made up of his loyal fans (Hicksters) who probably first heard his music on KSAN, Jive 95, back in 1969. At age 11, Hicks started out as a drummer, and was heavily influenced by jazz and Dixieland music, often playing dances at the VFW. During the folk revival of the ‘60s, he picked up a guitar, and would go to hootenannies while attending San Francisco State. Hicks began writing songs, an eclectic mix of Western swing, folk, jazz, and blues, and eventually formed Dan Hicks and his Hot Licks. His offbeat humor filtered its way into his stage act. Today, with tongue firmly planted in cheek, Hicks sums up his special genre as “Caucasian hip-hop.” Over four decades later, Hicks still delivers a unique performance, and Wednesday’s show was jammed with many great moments. One of the evenings highlights was the classic “I Scare Myself,” which Hicks is still unclear if it’s a love song when he wrote it back in 1969. “I was either in love, or I’d just eaten a big hashish brownie,” recalled Hicks. Adding to the song’s paranoia theme, back-up singers Daria and Roberta Donnay dawned dark shades while Benito Cortez played a chilling violin solo complete with creepy horror movie sound effects.

    FREEHOLD REGIONAL HIGH SCHOOL DISTRICT OFFICE OF CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTION MUSIC DEPARTMENT APPRECIATION OF POPULAR MUSIC 1/2 Grade Level: 10-12 Credits: 2.5 each section BOARD OF EDUCATION ADOPTION DATE: AUGUST 30, 2010 SUPPORTING RESOURCES AVAILABLE IN DISTRICT RESOURCE SHARING APPENDIX A: ACCOMMODATIONS AND MODIFICATIONS APPENDIX B: ASSESSMENT EVIDENCE APPENDIX C: INTERDISCIPLINARY CONNECTIONS Course Philosophy “Musical training is a more potent instrument than any other, because rhythm, harmony, and melody find their way into the inward place of our soul, on which they mightily fasten, imparting grace, and making the soul of him who is educated graceful.” - Plato We believe our music curriculum should provide quality experiences that are musically meaningful to the education of all our students. It should help them discover, understand and enjoy music as an art form, an intellectual endeavor, a medium of self-expression, and a means of social growth. Music is considered basic to the total educational program. To each new generation this portion of our heritage is a source of inspiration, enjoyment, and knowledge which helps to shape a way of life. Our music curriculum enriches and maintains this life and draws on our nation and the world for its ever- expanding course content, taking the student beyond the realm of the ordinary, everyday experience. Music is an art that expresses emotion, indicates mood, and helps students to respond to their environment. It develops the student’s character through its emphasis on responsibility, self-discipline, leadership, concentration, and respect for and awareness of the contributions of others. Music contains technical, psychological, artistic, and academic concepts.

  • Island Girl in a Rock-And-Roll World an Interview with June Millington by Theo Gonzalves and Gayle Wald
    1 2 GAYLE WALD AND THEO GONZALVES 1 2 George Washington University, National Museum of American History - Smithsonian Institution Email: [email protected] Island Girl in a Rock-and-Roll World An Interview with June Millington by Theo Gonzalves and Gayle Wald EDITED AND ANNOTATED BY GAYLE WALD The following text collects edited excerpts from a 30 July 2018 interview with musician June Millington (b. 1948, Manila, the Philippines) conducted by Theo Gonzalves, curator in the Division of Culture and the Arts at the National Museum of American History, and Gayle Wald, Professor of English and American Studies at George Washington Uni- versity. The interview was conducted at the Institute for the Musical Arts, a Goshen, Massachusetts-based non-profit founded and operated by Millington and her partner, Ann Hackler. The text is based on a transcription by Gracia Brown. This version, which is condensed, edited for clarity, and annotated, was prepared by Gayle Wald. June Millington is co-founder and lead guitarist of the germinal rock-and-roll band Fanny, which formed in Los Angeles in 1969. The other original members of the band were Jean Millington (June’s sister, on bass guitar and drums), Alice de Buhr (drums and vocals), and Nickey Barclay (keyboards and vocals). Fanny recorded four albums with Reprise Records—Fanny (1970), Charity Ball (1971), Fanny Hill (1972), and Mother’s Pride (1973)—and toured widely in the U.S. and internationally. As Ann Powers has recently observed, Fanny, as fronted by June Millington, “was a showcase for the swag- ger of long-haired, bell-bottomed, fierce femmes at the dawn of the women’s liberation 1 movement.” Since the band’s 1973 dissolution, Millington has had a distinguished career working with a wide variety of artists, most notably Cris Williamson, on whose influential 1975 album The Changer and the Changed Millington contributed keyboards, guitar, and vocals.

  • Mountain John, Peter Wilson, Moe Dixon – Three Troubadours
    Mountain John, Peter Wilson, Moe Dixon – Three Troubadours “[Mountain John has] the greatest voice in country music.” - Johnny Cash "Peter writes, plays and sings wonderfully well and his songs are filled with humor, heart and conscience." - Utah Phillips “[Moe Dixon’s] magical performances are highlighted by masterful guitar playing, powerful vocals and ingenious songwriting." - Sisters Folk Festival Three solo performers first met in the late 1970s in southern Vermont while performing on the New England folk music circuit. Over the years they’ve performed as duos and trios across the country. In 2008 they spent a week in the mountains of Pennsylvania dusting off their musical partnership and writing songs. That gathering has become an annual event – dubbed “Troubadour Camp” – and has generated a body of work that includes over 30 songs and an undetermined number of stories. Johnny Cash said Mountain John Hilligoss has the “the greatest voice in country music.” He’s equal parts cowboy poet, operatic baritone, stand-up comedian and country crooner. His career spans stints in the thick of the LA folk music scene of the 1970s, years working Nashville’s music row and literally millions of miles performing original songs and telling stories at festivals, night clubs and concert halls in every state, Canada and Europe. His videos have been featured on the Nashville Network and TNN. His travels have brought him onto stages with Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Emmylou Harris and more. His poetry has been given the “Editors Choice Award” by the National Library of Poetry. www.mountainjohn.com Moe Dixon is a familiar name on the festival and concert club circuit with inspiring original songs, fiery finger-style and ragtime guitar and inventive ukulele playing.
