Iconic moments in music history.
Philadelphia International Records at 50
PHILADELPHIA INTERNATIONAL RECORDS- 5O YEARS ON One of the most influential black music labels in history, has been in existence for half a century and though in recent years, it has become nothing more than a heritage logo for re-issues and compilations, it signified the direction that R &B music was swiftly taking, giving centre stage to artists that stood for a decade or so on the periphery of commercial breakthrough, newcomers that had something to say and making music fans fall in love with its trademarked smoothy, creamy yet soulful sounds.

Brian WestlandPublished 30 days ago in BeatLarissa, The Mistress of Large Music
Hello music lovers. I'm Larissa. Your Mistress of Large Music. Large music is classical music for full symphony orchestra. Most of us listen small, to country bands, rock bands, or rappers. We only hear large music in movie soundtracks, or way, way in the background, in elevators or Barnes and Noble Bookstores. In elevators and bookstores, the music is not music. It is wallpaper, hardly noticed at all. And that is why I sit here. I sit here to tell you Classical music, and classical orchestral music in particular, is probably the most interesting and diverse music you are ever likely to hear. Many people have not paid attention to Classical music, through no fault of their own. They have simply not thought much about it. My video series can help with that. https://www.charlesrolandberry.com/listen-large

The lost art of listening to music Part II
I remember very fondly the Hi-fi set up my Dad used to have in our living room. It had this huge speakers, a nice turntable and cassette deck. My Dad used (I said used because he now seldom listens to music, he lost interest in it) to listen to the mind-blowing arrangements of Ray Conniff, Julio Iglesias' filtered voice and the sharp sound of Herp Alpert trumpet. He used to sit in the middle of the living room, a glass of spirit in his hand, my Mother by his side and those lovely melodies as soundtrack for quality family time.
Giovanni ProfetaPublished 4 months ago in BeatThe lost art of listening to music Part I
Without any doubt, music is art, and proper listening it’s got to be considered art too. Our fast paced life has plummet our enjoyment of the pleasure of listening to music, now we don’t seem to give music its true value. Stay with me, not everything is lost, nowadays we got a vast array of music available at our fingertips. Like never before music is available 24/7 on a myriad of platforms, but is it truly a good thing to have all that music available? But first I want you to stay with me and take a deep dive into our past to learn a bit more about how music was listened in a distant past.
Giovanni ProfetaPublished 4 months ago in BeatWhy You Should Still be Listening to John Mayer
It’s been my steadfast belief for some time now that John Mayer is one of my generation’s musical beacons. The kind of artist that when we’re all old, grey and in-charge, we’ll remember with the kind of affection and respect that my parent’s generation do Clapton or McCartney.

Cordelia JPublished 4 months ago in BeatSpringsteen’s “Born in the USA” is Still Completely Misunderstood Today
“Born down in a dead man’s town, the first kick I took was when I hit the ground.” — Bruce Springsteen, “Born in the USA” Although I doubt he intended it when they were recorded 10 years apart, today Bruce Springsteen is best known, at least to casual listeners, for two songs whose titles start with the word “born:” “Born to Run” and “Born in the USA.” The first is, in my opinion, the Greatest Song Ever; the second is easily one of the most misunderstood, misrepresented songs ever. And while I can’t prove my first point (you either agree or you don’t), my second point can be both proven and corrected. Let’s do that now.
