That's not the only interesting part, although the first jazz recording was published in 1917 its origins date all the way back to times of slavery when africans would be shipped to america and be sold in order to work on plantations (Atkins 6). Throughout the twenties jazz…

July. As Serdamoir kept walking he began to notice there were no popcorn machines making a snap, pop sound. There were no hot dog vendors yelling bratwurst, bratwurst, get your bratwurst here.

needed was a band setting that had a guitar, drums and piano with bass. I wanted my friends to attend church, which none of them did and one way to get them to go, was if a band was present. So I searched several churches. Down the street from my apartment was a little church. It was a tiny thing in comparison to the one on the other side of the road.

The Soulvation group mostly sing covers of other artists from different genres, but from their stage name they mostly concentrate on soul music. The guitarist had a moment where he played his electric guitar in a way that left me in a trance. I enjoyed that part most tenderly. They not only sang different genres, but the ones that caught my eye were SWV’s weak. This was the first song I heard when I entered the bar. At that moment I knew that I was grateful that I had chosen to attend and watch…
