as “Norwegian Wood” and “Dig A Pony.” Guitar legend, Jimi Hendrix, absolutely adored Dylan. He is pictured multiple times holding a copy of one of Dylan’s records. Jimi’s surrealistic lyrics very much reflected Bob’s, and had an almost identical style. He even went as far as to record one of Dylan’s songs. On Jimi’s Electric Ladyland album, Dylan’s song “All Along The Watchtower” is performed by Jimi. The song is embellished with Hendrix’s psychedelic guitar playing and effects and became his…

both electric and acoustic guitars to form solo riffs. The guitars play together from the beginning forming almost a reggae style beat. The instrumentals behind “Hotel California” allows the listener to visualize and become more aware of the events as the story unfolds. The beginning of “Hotel California” has only two guitars playing before the lyrics or other instruments begin. This establishes the mood for the song by giving mellow acoustic guitar riffs with an electric guitar accompaniment.…

These works are about the culture of Aurelio’s homeland of Honduras. Garifuna is used to describe the descendants of Carib, Arawak Indians and West African people. The term Garifuna is also used to describe the language and style of music. The piece I chose to write about is called “Landini” which is off of his last album Landini.

simple, raw, acoustic recording. While both versions of the song show a similar intimacy, the varying ways they were produced and the decisions made by the artists influenced the intimacy in different ways. The Smiths, formed in 1982, were an English alternative rock band from Manchester. The band has cited the works…

The 1960’s were a time of social and political evolution, but this thirst to change was not limited to such causes and spread to other cultural elements, most importantly music. The decade was a time for performers to experiment with new and exciting ways of making sounds and performing music. Ways that had never been seen or heard before. Artists who would never have been popularized a decade earlier were finding a following in the free spirited 1960’s culture. Artists like Bob Dylan, Pink…

becomes steady and the trumpet cries on top of atmospheric surroundings fed by recurrent bass slides and perplexing, multi-dimensional guitar innuendos. With the unbeatable spirituality of A Love Supreme in mind, “Ohnedaruth John Coltrane” pays a tribute to the legendary saxophonist by sustaining a sonic liquidity that encapsulates assertive unisons, scattered electric guitar spasms burning in multiple effects, penetrating wha-wha bass licks, and brumous drum assaults.

I doubt the world would mourn the town of Ibatiba if it suddenly vanished into nothingness. Yet, this small speck on this pale blue dot we live on had anything but a small impact on me.
