50s Music and Musicians

The 1950s, it seems like such a long time to the 80s and the 90s child but not so to old timers. One of the most memorable things about the 50s was the Beat Culture. In the 50s, hot-rodders and Beats provided inspiration, even in music. The 1950s music scene reverberated to the beat with names like Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, Pat Boone, and Patti Page among other legends. This was the time of the Franks, with such names as Frank Sinatra, Frankie Laine and Frank Loesser coming clearly to mind. ...

Neil Simon Play Was Also a Movie

I am of the opinion that Neil Simon is one of the greatest contemporary playwrights in America, and my favorite Neil Simon play was also made into a terrific movie back in 1988. Biloxi Blues is the story of Eugene Jerome, a young man from New York who has been drafted into the army during World War II and sent to do his basic training in Biloxi, Mississippi. He also is introduced to Sgt. Merwin J. Toomey, who is obviously not completely mentally stable, and that makes for some interesting st...

Elvis Presley’s songs

I did not think much about this, because along with The Beatles, Elvis was probably the most famous and prolific rock-and-roll musician of that time period, but as I started paying more attention to the music being played at stores, malls and several other locations, I realized that Elvis Presley music is still thriving 50 years later. A few weeks later, I was taking my kids to a roller skating rink, where all of the kids seemed to be having a pretty good time, but were rather subdued. Then E...

There is no such thing as a fake or garage sale talk, this really is as real as it sounds. I am Hervé Senni, a professional webmaster, some time ago a pro musician within the jazz scene. After playing all around the place and tried to make a profession out of it, I decided to provide nearly all of it away for free. Why?.. Since I could not get a hold to that dreamlike Record agreement deal most are running after, there's nothing worse that having your own composition useless sleeping dee...

British rock bands through the years

This article is about British rock bands The history of british rock bands really begins with the Beatles. The group’s first incarnation was in 1957, when then sixteen year old John Lennon and some schoolboy pals decided to form a band. A month later Lennon met then fifteen year old Paul McCartney and invited him to join. Several months after that, McCartney invited fourteen year old George Harrison to join, and the genesis of the Beatles was complete. They ended up writing songs and playi...

80s Pop Music: The Beginning of Modern Rock

One of the best real bands to emerge from 80s pop music was Midnight Oil. These Aussies carried through into the early 90s with their big hit “Beds are Burning” and later “Blue Sky Mining”, among others. Another critically acclaimed singer/songwriter of 80s pop music (and rock) was Peter Gabriel of Journey fame with his hit “In Your Eyes”. All in all, 80s pop music was fantastic for people who really loved original, melodic songs and spawned a whole new generation of musicians and a style of ...
