Well, neither could Hendrix. So when the iconoclastic guitar player showed up with his band at the BBC studios in London on January 4, 1969 to appear on Happening for Lulu, he was horrified to learn that the show's producer wanted him to sing with the winsome star of To Sir,...

Salut à tous, Du site Open Culture : La tournée de concerts du groupe Sex Pistols en 1978. ¨ The Sex Pistols “started out as an elaborate Situationist-inspired performance art piece dreamed up by megalomaniac manager Malcolm McLaren,” wrote Jonathan Crow in a post here at Open Culture about one of the band’s storied, disastrous final shows in Dallas of 1978. After beginning as the creation of McLaren and partner Vivienne Westwood, however, they “evolved beyond just being a stunt.”    The statement is objectively... [Lire la suite]

Salut à tous, Du site Open Culture : ¨ If you want to write, most every writer will tell you, you’ve got to read, read, read, and read. “Read more than you write,” advises Teju Cole. Even great filmmakers like Werner Herzog and Akira Kurasawa cite copious reading as a prerequisite for their primarily visual medium. But what about music? What advice might we hope to receive about the art of writing memorable, culturally significant songs? Listen, listen, listen, and listen, perhaps.    One of the greatest of rock and roll...

Salut à tous, Du site Openculture.com : David Byrne Curates a Playlist of Great Protest Songs Written Over the Past 60 Years: Stream Them Online ¨ When you hear the words “protest song,” what do you see? Is it a folkie like Bob Dylan or Joan Baez delivering songs about injustice? Is it an earnest young thing with a guitar? Is it trapped in 1960s amber, while time has moved on to more ambiguity, more nihilism, more solipsism?    British writers--and may we add amateur folksingers--Jonathan Luxmoore and Christine Ellis made...

Salut à tous, Du site Slate.fr : La fin de semaine du 15 août est déjà derrière nous, mais ces opus accompagneront vos voyages jusqu'à la fin de l'automne. ¨ L'été et les vacances ont le don de réveiller les sons qui prennent leur vraie mesure sous le soleil et la chaleur de la plage. On vit davantage dehors et la musique accompagne cette villégiature. Les titres que l'on aime écouter à la mer ne sont pas forcément dirigés vers les clubs. D'ailleurs LE titre le plus emblématique de l'été depuis 1987 reste un classique urbain. ... [Lire la suite]

Salut à tous, Du site Open Culture : The Recorder Played Like You’ve Never Heard it Before: Hear a Stunning Solo from Vivaldi’s Recorder Concerto in C Major ¨ Owing to its simplicity and inexpensiveness, the recorder has become one of the most commonly taught instruments in grade-school music classes. But that very position has also, perhaps, made it a less respected instrument than it could be. We may vividly remember the hours spent fumbling with the holes on the front of our plastic recorders in an attempt to master the basic... [Lire la suite]

Salut à tous, Du site Open Culture : Album de Miles Davis, en 5 versions différentes , RUBERBAND !    ¨ Jazz is a collaborative art, no matter how big the egos and outsized the personalities involved. Even bandleaders as autocratic as Miles Davis are referred to in the context of their ensembles and in the company of their finest players. Davis knew how good his collaborators were. He gave them ample space to prove it and pushed them to improve. Usually pushed them out the door, to legendary solo careers and new musical... [Lire la suite]

Salut à tous, Du site Open Culture : 33 Songs That Document the History of Feminist Punk (1975-2015): A Playlist Curated by Pitchfork   Women have always been central to punk rock, even though they had to fight very hard to get and stay there. As veteran punk journalist and musician Vivien Goldman writes at Pitchfork, “Resistance to our existence was an acknowledged fact of life.” And yet, “punk freed female musicians,” she argues. She knows of what she speaks, having observed firsthand the “laddist boystown” of rock... [Lire la suite]
