Chuck's Music Blog: Welcome

http://chucksmusic.blogspot.com/2007/04/welcome.html

Saturday, April 28, 2007. Welcome to Chuck's Music! As by popular demand, I am starting a new Blog, dedicated to music. First the technical problems: if it's going to be about music, then it has to have music! I won't bore you with the details, but I'm still working out a way for people to come in and listen to music as they browse. There are logistic problems involved (file storage and access). And let's. How I tell a story" - Click on drawing to enlarge. Posted by Charly Blog. Saturday, April 28, 2007.

Chuck's Music Blog: Introduction - What is music

http://chucksmusic.blogspot.com/2007/05/introduction-what-is-music.html

Tuesday, May 1, 2007. Introduction - What is music. Of course, the scholarly definition of music is: an organized sequence of sounds produced in such a way that it will alter and provoke emotional states or "moods" to the person listening, and thus portraying "meaning" to the listener. Or as wikipedia puts it, "an art form that involves organised sounds and silence.". How this blog is organized. One last introductory question, before the chapter-categories: in which order? So, without further ado, earnes...

Chuck's Music Blog: 30's & 40's

http://chucksmusic.blogspot.com/2007/05/30s-40s.html

Saturday, May 5, 2007. Why join together two decades into one category? I call that whole era the "war years": pre, during and post. The mainstream popular music was swing jazz, spanning both decades, and the mainly relevant mark is to realize weather a tune was playing before, during or after the war. Betty Grable - There's Danger In A Dance. Fred Astaire - Cheek To Cheek. Fred Astaire - Let's Call The Whole Thing Off. Glenn Miller - Pennsylvania 6-5000. Posted by Charly Blog.

Chuck's Music Blog: 60's/Beach Boys

http://chucksmusic.blogspot.com/2007/05/60sbeach-boys.html

Friday, May 25, 2007. For a good part of the early 60's - the neck-tie years - the only time boys got to present themselves in public without a neck-tie, was at the beach. In those days, surfing was considered "cool" and even "radical". The Beach Boys. Created the "west coast sound" of the surfing generation rock and roll. Where is. Ev'rybody, this summer? Well,"ev'rybody's gone surfin'! Considered by the experts as one of the best rock&roll songs ever, " Good Vibrations. Surfing U.S.A. Any questions, su...

Chuck's Music Blog: 60's

http://chucksmusic.blogspot.com/2007/05/60s.html

Friday, May 18, 2007. All teens are rebellious - each new generation of adolescents tries to create something new, and differentiate itself from anything in the past: that's the definition of the term "modern" and, what teen doesn't want to be modern? However, I believe the 60's were different. Other generations of youngsters before, and since, tried to (and most did) make their statement of modernism in such easy and obvious fields as clothes, hairstyle and of course, popular music fashion. I would even...

Chuck's Music Blog: 30's & 40's/Marlene Dietrich

http://chucksmusic.blogspot.com/2007/05/30s-40smarlene-dietrich.html

Monday, May 7, 2007. 30's and 40's/Marlene Dietrich. The first sub-category for a major influence artist is Marlene Dietrich - a strange, gloomy, unmistakeable and unforgettable voice, that engraves itself into the mind of the listener and portrays dispair, dis-enchantment and seems to say "we're headed for doom, but what can we do about it, except maybe sing a sad song, light up another cigarette and have another drink.". Marlene Dietrich at Wikipedia. Marlene Dietrich at The Internet Movie Database.

Chuck's Music Blog: 50's

http://chucksmusic.blogspot.com/2007/05/50s.html

Thursday, May 10, 2007. The phenomenon covered in the next category - 50's Rock - doesn't seem to leave much room for anything else in this decade. Jazz was still going strong and kept growing, and expanding, and exploring styles and possibilities: the easy swing was making way to harder beats, as though the beat suddenly said: "Hey, you've been playing me down for so many centuries, now I'm going to explode! Doris Day was singing Que Será, Será! The Chordettes popularized Mr. Sandman. Meanwhile.ever...
