#rhythmandblues — Public Fediverse posts

Walked in to Al Nalli Music on #MainStreet in #AnnArbor #Michigan circa early 1980s. The keyboard section was empty, just a bunch of cables and cords hanging off of keyboard racks. Me: "Did you get robbed or something?" Them: "Naw, #StevieWonder came in here and bought everything we had!" #HappyBirthday number 76 to a legend, a genius, and fellow tech nerd. 🎵 🎶 ⚡ 🎹 🎂 👍 😁 #Music #Motown #RhythmAndBlues Photo credit: Susan Wineberg, 1981.

#Soul is een muziekstijl die in de jaren #50s en #60s ontstond uit #rhythmandblues en #gospel muziek bij de Afro-Amerikaanse bevolking in het zuiden van de Verenigde Staten. Hoofdvertegenwoordigers waren #raycharles #samcooke #jamesbrown #ArethaFranklin en #steviewonder Bij #soul figureert veelal een zanger(es) met ondersteuning van achtergrondzang en een band met ritmesectie, koperblazers en saxofoons.

Released on 9 April 1985 as the lead single from the band's fourth studio album, #BeYourselfTonight (1985), the song was the first by the duo to feature their change in musical direction from a predominantly #synthpop style to #rock and #rhythmAndBlues. The song, and its accompanying album, featured a full backing band and relied less on electronic programming. Lyrically.

#Doowop is een vorm van #rhythmandblues die gekenmerkt wordt door a capella met een pakkende melodische lijn en een eenvoudige beat met weinig of geen instrumentatie. De stijl ontstond onder de Afro-Amerikaanse jeugd in de steden in het noordoosten van de Verenigde Staten en kende zijn hoogtepunt in de #50s en #60s Vaak zong het achtergrondkoortje ritmische nietsbetekenende woorden of onomatopeeën, waaruit ook de naam van de stijl te herleiden is.

The Orioles – skupina, která jako první ukázala, že vokální R&B může dobýt hitparády. Hysterie fanynek, jemné balady a pak rychlý pád.

Hip Hop Samples Jazz: Dynamics of Cultural Memo y and Musical Tradition in the African American 1990s

The critical attempt to historicize hip hop dates at least to David Toop’s 1984 "Rap Attack: African Griots to New York Jive", a book written with journalistic immediacy and yet, as its subtitle suggests, one that situates rap reportage in the black musical "longue durée" but it wasn’t until the mid- 1990s that efforts toward an academic hip hop scholarship began in earnest, and it was then that ideas about the music’s methods and meanings as rooted in the black musical past became common currency. This view wasn’t surprising: a neat and untroubled line could be traced from the classic African American toasts to rap, and the use of digital sampling, whereby hip hop producers constructed their work from (black) music’s recorded back catalog, was equally suggestive for historically minded observers. This sampling practice, and its “historical” interpretation, form the central subject of this article.
Certainly, hip hop’s early scholars differed in their reasoning as to what the form’s use of old records meant for black music and history. Some positioned the practice as part of a linear, cultural-national tradition, sometimes shaded with essentialism. William Eric Perkins claimed, with totalizing confidence, that “sampling was and is hip hop’s ongoing link with history and tradition, including all of the African and African American musical genres.” a more modulated Kyra D. Gaunt contended that hip hop’s sampling was “the perfect medium for expressing the temporal culture-scape of who we are, and how we became, across time.”
