... known artists in the field, such as B.B. King, Ike and Tina Turner, Solomon Burke, Jackie Wilson, Littler Richard, Wilson Pickett, and King Curtis (Clifford, pg. 181). Using the name Jimmy James, he toured with a bunch of R & B shows, including six months as a member of James Brown's Famous Flames (Stambler, pg. 290). At the Cafe Wha! in New York, in 1966, Hendrix decided to try singing. Jimi lucked out when a man by the name of Charles "Chas" Chandler from Eric Burdon's Animals heard him at the club and thought he was sensational. When Chas heard him again later that year, he talked Jimi into moving to England where he would really get the chance to start his career (Stambler, pg. 2 ...
... kind of music started to attract white teenagers. Disc jockey Alan Freed was the one who introduced this music and later gave it the name of Rock n' Roll. Record companies distributed records played by whites but composed by blacks. Whites were frustrated because there weren't any white artists and they didn't want the blacks to be the stars until Bill Haley appeared with his "Rock Around the Clock". In this decade, Elvis Presley introduced a music that was sexual suggestive and outraged dull adults. In time he changed the style of the music by adopting a country and western style and became a national hero. By the end of this decade and the start of the next, Rock n' Roll started to dec ...
... the music group The Yardbirds was in shambles. Their last, and half-put --together album "Little Games" was a total flop and the band had to struggle to have the release of the album in the UK stopped. On March 30, the group allowed a taping of their concert in Madison Square Garden to be considered for a live album to be released later. They easily convinced their record contractor, Epic Records, to ditch the project. The lead guitarist of The Yardbirds, Jeff Beck, had suffered from a mental breakdown a few years earlier and could no longer handle the pressure of touring. The band members, Keith Relf, Chris Dreja, Jim McCarty, and Jimmy Page decided to throw in the towel and let t ...

... the idea of looking at things differently and would not even restrict the students to an essay. He would probably except anything such as a poem, paper, or a picture. As long as the perception does not fit the one that society shows us. The essay that is shown below is about a rap group named the Wu-Tang Clan. This was a very good choice to write this essay because they look at society through the eyes of an outsider. The Wu-Tang Clan is a rap group that came out with there first CD in 1993. This CD soon became a rap classic. They combine real street life from the projects with lyrics that were deep and had much meaning. The Wu puts forward explicit lyrics that identify with the audienc ...
... in a little flatulent. Yes-ish prog-rock to boot, all of which staggers around a bit and then proceeds to fall flat on its sunburnt face. Silverchair's leader Daniel Johns has been thinking long and hard about what's happening today, and through he's made a killing off the record biz and never has to work another day in his life, he's decided to lead a youth revolt against "overweight people in suits": hence, "Anthem For the Year 2000," complete with a Siverchair countdown calendar. "We are the youth/We'll take your fascism…. In the year 2000," he howls, Hetfield-like. How he proposes that "the youth" do this, however, is left unanswered. Some people actually hoping the Y2K bug act ...
... This is because we consume the musicians' talents like a fast food happy meal. We open the box, take out the toy, throw away the contents, and then bitch about being hungry. When we do this we always say, "It's a cool song, but they are a one hit wonder." We the hungry consumer do not give the bands a chance to show their true musical talents. One example involves the group Verve Pipe and their hit song "The Freshman." This songs LP was out in December. No one noticed it until halfway through the month of March. "The Freshman" was played every thirty minutes on the radio and fifteen times a day on MTV. This in my opinion results in the complete overplay of one bands hit song. ...
... as a parachute jumper until an injury led to his discharge. Hendrix then began working as a session guitarist under the name Jimmy James, playing behind such marquee acts as Sam Cooke, Ike and Tina Turner, and the Isley Brothers. After gigging extensively with Little Richard in 1964, Hendrix became entangled in a contract dispute with the mercurial artist and left to form his own band, Jimmy James and the Blue Flames. With the exception of an obscure single, "My Diary," with Rosa Lee Parks, none of the music Hendrix cut with other artists was made more remarkable by his presence. After playing Greenwich Village coffeehouses for the better part of a year (still under the moniker Jimmy James) ...
