... commitment to the black community, thus
serving as a shining example of the lessons of his
music. Brown's message of change by improving
currently existing systems was conservative in
comparison to some more radical artists. These
artists, like the Last Poets, believe that change
would only come around through a revolution. The
Last Poets who use a combination of spoken word
and music in their song "Niggers Are Scared of
Revolution" exemplify this. The song addresses
apathy in the black comm...

Aldous Huxley Jim Morrison
4,069 words
The 1960 s were a time of major political and
social change. These changes were primarily
fuelled by the youth of the time. Their parents
had come from life in both the great depression of
the 1930 s as well as World War II, and were on a
whole more conservative than their children, a
fact the younger generation did not like. In the
early 60 s the electronic media (Television and
radio) became an important communication tool, as
opposed to the largely print based media of
previous decades. With ...

York William Morrow Grateful Dead

What a long strange trip it has been was the theme
from my graduation last year. The only reason that
I am telling you that is because that is a classic
quote from the leader of the band, Grateful Dead.
And if you stop and think about it, it makes
complete sense. Life seems to be this strange trip
and we are all on this same boat. Jerry Garcia was
a great musician, and also a poet. Everything that
he said either in his music or through his guitar,
which some people would argue that its the

first real bad thing they did was probably the
worst. They were really getting hot across the
country and they were invited to the Ed Sullivan
Show. They were to play Light My Fire. The network
executives wanted them to not use their own lyrics
because they were too sexual. Little did they know
that Morrison would not only say, Light My Fire
but turn to the camera and yell it. They were
basically finished on TV after this stunt. Other

Tells The Story Symphony Orchestra

Metallica has not always been the talented group
of rock musicians that they are today. It took
many years and many albums to bring the band to
its current standing as the kings of rock.
Metallica has undergone changes in its lineup and
its musical writing style. Comparing and
contrasting the musical and lyrical content of
each Metallica album shows exactly how much they
have changed from the early 1980 s to 2000.
Metallica was founded in the early 1980 s when a

The Downfall of Today's Music The nineties began
with the grunge scene, an alternative style of
rock and roll that revolutionized rock music
today. This music that was once praised by MTV was
gradually pushed out to make way for the sound of
generic rap beats, watered down heavy metal and
sugar coated pop tunes. The pattern of the
nineties is nothing new. The seventies and
eighties both saw fresh new music that preceded a
pour attempt at a new innovative sound. In the
seventies disco followed th...

Backstreet Boys Boy Band

Today's current music scene has steadily become
filled with pre-packaged assembly line bands and
singers. This teen oriented pop phenomenon is
repulsive. I see the so-called bands and singers
for what they really are. They are passing trends
made special, just for the teens, with all image
and no real talent. For their own good, I can only
hope these brainwashed teens will grow out of this
horrible phase. Fabricated bands such as O-Town, N

The Hip-Hop/Rock Phenomenon It seems as though you
can barely read a magazine or flip on the
television without hearing about one of these new
hip-hop / rock groups. Media outlets such as
Rolling Stone and MTV treat these bands as though
miraculously created this? new? genre of music.
Acts such as Limp Bizkit, Kid Rock and Sugar Ray
are treated though they are creative geniuses when
in reality they are only doing things that have
already been done before. True some of these new

Family Values Teen Suicide

Message or Korn Korn Message or Outrage In
discussing the judgement of todays rock bands, it
seems as though they need to earn respect first,
then do what they please. Earning respect first
may sound fair but some bands are possibly doing
the opposite on purpose to be more appealing to
the younger generation. A band whose music,
attitude, and lifestyle that falls into this
rebellious nature would be KORN. The material that
KORN produces is not as objectionable as it is
made out to be. Issues suc...

Duke Duke Ellington Duke Ellington Duke
Ellington's pre-eminence in jazz is not only
because of the very high aesthetic standard of his
output and not simply due to his remarkable
abilities as a pianist, composer and bandleader,
but also to the fact that he has extended the
boundaries of jazz more than any other musician,
without abandoning the true essence of the music.
Perhaps no other American musician left such a
massive and challenging legacy in composition and
performance. Edward Kennedy D...

19 Th Century Types Of Music

Jazz When it comes to music, most people dont say
they like it. People say they like heavy metal,
pop, rhythm and blues, or any other type of music,
since they have their own preference to what type
of music they like, not just enjoying the broad
area of music. One of those types of music which
many enjoy is jazz. Actually right now jazz is
really big and popular in Europe, andis rising in
its popularity in the USA through its many forms.

Stock Market Crash One Of The Most Important

The 1920 s was a huge decade for the phenomena
known as " Jazz" . Due to the closing of
the seaport in New Orleans, musicians were forced
to travel up the Mississippi to find work. Two of
the cities most affected by this move were Chicago
and New York. Chicago was home primarily for New
Orleans traditional music during the 1920 s. From
this New Orleans style came four major types of
jazz: Boogie-Woogie, Chicago Jazz, Urban Blues,
and Society Dance Bands. Because of the

that it wasnt Jazz unless it swung like the

other day from one of my Jazz collections that my
grandpa gave to me and realized that their was so
much energy and pizzazz in this music. He
