Download or read book Rock: The Primary Text written by Allan F Moore and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-09-28 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thoroughly revised third edition of Allan F. Moore's ground-breaking book, now co-authored with Remy Martin, incorporates new material on rock music theory, style change and the hermeneutic method developed in Moore’s Song Means (2012). An even larger array of musicians is discussed, bringing the book right into the 21st century. Rock's 'primary text' – its sounds – is the focus of attention here. The authors argue for the development of a musicology particular to rock within the context of the background to the genres, the beat and rhythm and blues styles of the early 1960s, 'progressive' rock, punk rock, metal and subsequent styles. They also explore the fundamental issue of rock as a medium for self-expression, and the relationship of this to changing musical styles. Rock: The Primary Text remains innovative in its exploration of an aesthetics of rock.

Download or read book Before It All Went Rotten written by Simon Matthews and published by Oldacastle Books. This book was released on 2023-09-05 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surrender to the Rhythm takes a trip back to the world before punk. Covering the bands, the pubs, the characters, the albums, the songs and the personal histories that emerged out of the 60s, it shows how they provided the foundations for the musical explosion that swept the UK after 1977. The role of London's Irish community in enabling this is discussed, as are the economic circumstances that prevailed then, both being factors which briefly led to a heavy concentration of affordable music venues in north London. Featuring in depth interviews with many of the period's leading musicians, it reassesses the brief pub-rock phenomenon and argues that its importance was greater than perceived at the time.

Download or read book Gardner, McAnallen, Ralston and Fehrenbach Family History written by Beatrice F. Mansfield and published by Virtualbookworm Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hearing friends talk about their ancestors and genealogical research prompted the author to wonder about her ancestors and started her on a journey that may never end. With the help of distant cousins contacted on the Internet, it was soon apparent that James Gardner of Butler County, Pennsylvania, was her great-great-great-grandfather. But there the trail grew cold. Where was he born and who were his parents? Was he part of the William and Sarah Gardner family that moved from Maryland to the wild frontier of Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, either before or during the Revolutionary War? Most of the descendants of James and Martha "Molly" McAnallen Gardner married, had children and brought many other surnames to the Gardner family tree. Among those surnames are Ackerman, Brinkley, Cameron, Cann, Carson, Dover, Duffy, Fehrenbach, Grossman, Harriger, Hoge, Johnson, Mansfield, Marmie, McAnallen, Mershimer, Ott, Rohrer, Shoaf, Teal, Welsh and Wimer. With the help of more research and information from yet unknown cousins, this family tree will continue to grow and spread its branches. Perhaps we will even learn about the ancestors of James Gardner.

Download or read book Sixties British Pop, Outside in written by Gordon Ross Thompson and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2024 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Itchycoo Park, 1964-1970-the second volume of Sixties British Pop, Outside In- explores how London songwriters, musicians, and production crews navigated the era's cultural upheavals by reimagining the pop-music envelope. British songwriters, musicians, and production crews explored form, sound, and subject matter as western society grappled with racism, sexism, war, revolution, and migration in a postcolonial world. As these creators and curators of popular culture combined interests in jazz, folk, blues, Indian ragas, and western classical music, they created sophisticated hybrid forms that redefined pop music. Based on extensive research and drawing on vintage and original interviews, Sixties British Pop, Outside In contextualizes the world of the Beatles through King Crimson in the frameworks of the postwar surge in births that created the Bulge Generation in the UK (and Baby Boomers in America), emergent technologies, English behavior, and the places and spaces in which people created and consumed pop music"--
