Kurt Rosenwinkel's 'Know The Answer'

Improved Essays
Show More
American guitarist based in Berlin, Kurt Rosenwinkel, closed the second night with his Brazilian-influenced Caipi band whose elements are Pedro Martins on guitar, keyboards and vocals, Olivia Trummer on piano and vocals, Frederico Heliodoro on electric bass and vocals, Antonio Loureiro on drums, vocals and percussion, and Bill Campbell on drums.

Happy vibes could be enjoyed right away in “Caipi”, the opening tune, and one of the strongest of the record. “Casio Vanguard” was next, in which the guitarist showed off his towering guitar licks in between vocalized Portuguese phrases.

While “Silver Flames” had a tripping disco-like start and no solos, “Know The Answer” infused funky pulses into a pop song adorned with indie touches and catchy choruses.

    J. David Velleman's 'So It Goes'

    To begin the inquiry of the possibility of there being and enduring self, the argument that J. David Velleman holds against the enduring self, will be evaluated. In the beginning of Velleman’s paper, So It Goes, he asserts that the enduring self is an illusion. Velleman is helped by another philosopher, Derek Partif, in establishing his claim that anything enduring seems false in claiming that, “connections of memory do not necessarily trace out the career of a single, enduring object, and they are unsuited to serve as the integuments of an enduring self” (Velleman, 2). In the quote listed above, it helps to grasp the idea that an enduring self does not come together just because the object or person is able to remember their memories and…

    Gene Forrester's A Separate Peace

    One always accepts the world with which they are presented, and the same rule applies in literature. Everything in a work is filtered through the narrator, so that brings up the question of how one can be certain they are being told pure fact and reason, and the answer, although no one wants to believe it, is that the reader has absolutely no way of knowing; however, once the reader understands that, they become aware of an even greater truth: they will never know the actuality of any story. Literary works are filled with tensions and paradoxes, which is what makes them seem so interesting to readers. People are drawn to paradoxical stories because they can be interpreted in an exceptional number of ways, but what if the author took a simple…

    Chaim Potok's The Chosen

    It was said by Henry Gray that “No one ever achieved greatness by playing it safe”. A lot of people who have been graced with the blessing of achieving greatness, had to take risks. Taking a risk can be very hard for some people to do. Since it is hard, people tend to keep to themselves if they are going to take one. Therefore, some very great people can be reserved and difficult to understand.…

    Mark Oppenheimer's Reclaiming Jew

    Mark Oppenheimer, in his thought-provoking op-ed piece titled, “Reclaiming Jew” surfaces a societal problem. Jews do not feel comfortable introducing themselves as a noun. Instead of “I am a Muslim” or “I am a Christian,” secular Jews say “I am Jewish.” It is as if using the noun is too solid and prideful, whereas the adjective feels slippery and insecure. An adjective can simply describe an aspect about something, but the noun is.…

    Star Band Critique

    Ringo Starr couldn't have looked more cool, quiet or gathered. Two hours before he ventured before more than 6,000 fans at the Greek Theater, the ex-Beatle, not exactly a week short of his 76th birthday, respected a guest into his changing area as he loose in a seat, dressed monochromatically in a smooth dark coat, thin dark pants, coordinating T-shirt and sneakers. "The visit is incredible," he said of his most recent All-Starr Band, which wrapped a 21-show 2016 U.S. visit show with the sold-out homecoming show at the Greek. The lineup highlights guitarist-vocalist lyricist Todd Rundgren, Toto guitarist-artist Steve Lukather, Santana keyboardist-artist Gregg Rolie, bassist Richard Page, saxophonist-percussionist Warren Ham and drummer…

    John Macwhorter's Nothing Left Unsaid

    Nothing Left Unsaid Passion, sometimes shown in rage, allows us to explore an idea with zest and excitement. Malcolm X, an African American figure who was known for being quite passionate, yet angry, about his cause, is a prime example of how passion can give people the push to pursue causes that are meaningful to them. While he could be very crass and rude, it was only out of this angry passion that he found success as an activist, and gained recognition for his differences. John MacWhorter, an African American professor of linguistics and American studies at the Ivy League, Columbia University, believed that Malcolm X was too angry to be taken seriously and that the rage in his argument distracted from real, meaningful progress in his cause. However, MacWhorter completely overlooks the traits that made Malcolm X distinctive from his fellow activists, and does not take into account the reasons why Malcolm X was taken seriously in his cause that eventually became resolved with the help of his passionate thoughts.…

    Braunschweiger's 'A Sense Of Relief'

    A Sense of Relief I believe that it is a relief to know that great literature is based on extremely heart wrenching experiences since we can see that we are not alone, and we can overcome these obstacles. After Jennifer and her mother engage in a dissension, it results in further rebellion from Jennifer and the silent treatment between the two individuals. Through this example, people are able to learn that they are not alone, as there are other individuals who face similar conflicts. Afterwards, her mother says “You’re untrustworthy, you’re irresponsible, and you’re a disappointment.” (Braunschweiger 272).…
