Gino Marielli"Tazenda. S'istoria infinida"Felice LiperiIl Castello Editorewww.ilcastelloeditore.it Tazenda. S'Istoria Infinida è la biografia a firma Felice Liperi dei mitici Tazendain uscita a novembre per Il Castello (Collana Chinaski): un libro che, a quasi quarant'anni di storia dei Tazenda e a vent'anni dalla prematura  scomparsa  diAndrea Parodi, racconta tra radici, trasformazioni e visioni artistiche, l'abbondante mezzo secolo di storia musicale dei suoi componenti. Una storia che ha lasciato un solco profondo nella scena musicale sarda e nazionale. Fra ricordi, un racconto delle tappe della storia della band e i versi delle canzoni, si affacciano le testimonianze di tutti coloro che hanno partecipato a questa avventura.A cominciare dai molti musicisti. Oltre i fondatori Gigi Camedda e Gino Marielli, che hanno guidato la crescita artistica dei Tazenda, ai cantautori e musicisti che hanno collaborato con loro come Andrea Poddighe, Claudia Crabuzza, Piero Marras e Paolo Fresu, fino alle voci a cui è stato affidato il ruolo che fu di Parodi, dalle più recenti come Nicola Nite e l'attuale voce di Serena Carta Mantilla; o a quelle più lontane come Beppe Dettori: ciascuno a raccontarci il proprio contributo alla creazione e all'evoluzione del suono unico della band. Ugualmente centrali le testimonianze di altri personaggi del mondo dello spettacolo, dalla musica alla tv, come Gianni Morandi che nel volume racconta impressioni personali e aneddoti sulla collaborazione con i Tazenda. Poi ci sono i produttori come Giovanni Leonardi, Franco De Lucia e Mauro Cauchi. Ma anche i collaboratori storici, come Massimo Cossu eLuca Parodi, che svelano il dietro le quinte della carriera dei Tazenda: dai primi passi fino al successo nazionale e internazionale, ripercorrendo le scelte strategiche e creative che hanno plasmato la loro identità musicale. Infine le figure più tecniche: professionisti come Alberto Erre e Antonio Ferraro che riportano le sfide e le esperienze in studio, quei momenti che hanno costruito il suono distintivo della band, o lo storico road manager Sandro Frascogna al quale è affidato il racconto dell'organizzazione dei tour e del lavoro sul palco. Senza dimenticare i giornalisti: personaggi come Carlo Eletti o Pasquale Porcu che hanno disegnato la loro storia fin dai suoi esordi.Non meno importanti le testimonianze indirette che Felice Liperi, assieme a Gigi Camedda e Gino Marielli che con lui hanno ripercorso questo viaggio, sono andati a rispolverare: come i racconti di personaggi come Renato Zero e Pippo Baudo, Mogol, Marti Jane Robertson, Mara Maionchi o Red Ronnie che ci riportano l'impatto della band nel panorama musicale italiano. Nel raccontare i Tazenda è difficile non usare parole che evocano l'epica. Perché la loro storia attraversa la memoria di un popolo, la forza della natura e la poesia della lingua sarda, unita all'energia universale del rock. Dal 1987 a oggi, il trio simbolo dell'isola ha saputo fondere identità, spiritualità e modernità, portando la Sardegna sulle scene nazionali e internazionali con una voce inconfondibile.Epica, mito e fantascienza: tutti elementi che ritroviamo già nel nome dei Tazenda: una reinterpretazione di Star's End, pianeta immaginario della trilogia della Fondazione di Isaac Asimov. Un riferimento che suona come un passaggio naturale per i musicisti sardi, che prima di approdare a questa nuova identità avevano militato in gruppi dai nomi altrettanto simbolici: prima il Sole Nero, evocazione di un'epica anche qui dal sapore fantascientifico, poi il Coro degli Angeli, un nome che venne coniato da Mogol ispirato dalle sonorità celesti delle loro voci.Liperi, uno dei più autorevoli critici musicali italiani, costruisce un racconto che è insieme storico e sentimentale, ricco di riferimenti musicali e culturali. Il volume ripercorre l'avventura cominciata da Andrea Parodi, Gino Marielli e Gigi Camedda – e poi proseguita con nuovi compagni di viaggio – svelando come nei Tazenda la ricerca musicale si intrecci da sempre alla ricerca di senso: un continuo dialogo tra radici e futuro, tra poesia e ritmo, tra appartenenza e apertura.Fin dagli esordi, con Sos ojos de sa jana, emergono i temi fondanti del gruppo: il mare come orizzonte di libertà, la natura come sacralità quotidiana, la memoria come canto. Nei brani A Deus piachende e Scaldaci sole la spiritualità diventa invocazione, mentre in Mamoiada la tradizione si fa racconto corale di popolo e identità senza evitare di toccare temi sociali legati alle faide interne della Sardegna. È una lingua viva, la “limba”, quella scelta dai Tazenda: non solo strumento espressivo ma gesto culturale e politico, capace di dare forza e riconoscibilità alla loro musica.Felice Liperi mette in luce anche la dimensione musicale del trio, profondamente segnata dal rock – dagli U2 ai Beatles – e dalla capacità di dialogare con artisti come Fabrizio De André, Eros Ramazzotti o i Simple Minds. Nelle loro canzoni, canti a tenore, launeddas e arpeggi elettrici convivono in un magico equilibrio creando un suono che ha saputo raccontare la Sardegna  con un linguaggio musicale universaleCon questa biografia, i Tazenda ritrovano la propria “Istoria” raccontata attraverso la sensibilità di un autore che ne coglie la profondità poetica e musicale. Un viaggio che non celebra soltanto una band, ma l'anima di un'isola che continua a cantare se stessa, parlando – ancora una volta – la lingua del mondo.Felice Liperi, critico musicale, per molti anni conduttore e curatore di programmi per Radio Rai (Fahrenheit, Stereonotte, Sei gradi). Docente di corsi di Storia della canzone italiana e Popular Music al DAMS nelle Università di Genova, Udine e all'Officina delle Arti Pier Paolo Pasolini.Da molti anni collabora con “La Repubblica”.

In this Episode 103, Theresa and Kathryn sit down with Emily Langerholc—elementary music teacher, PhD student, and author—to explore what it really means to embrace popular music in the classroom. Emily shares how her early love for MTV and radio shaped her musical identity, and how discovering that popular music counts as legitimate scholarly work opened the door to her lifelong passion for bridging classical and contemporary worlds. She discusses the growing acceptance of popular music in music education, why it matters for student engagement, and how connecting classroom concepts to the music students already know can transform their understanding of theory, creativity, and musicianship.Emily offers practical examples of how she integrates popular music into both elementary and secondary settings—from using familiar songs to teach meter and mode, to remixing classical themes, to empowering students to arrange, create, and explore music on their own terms. She also speaks candidly about the challenges: the limits of ensemble schedules, the reality that not every student will be hooked by pop music, and the ongoing work of reaching the “other 80%.” Throughout the conversation, Emily emphasizes the bigger goal: helping students see themselves as musicians beyond the classroom and cultivating lifelong music-making in whatever form it takes. Tune in for inspiration, concrete ideas, and a fresh perspective on expanding what counts as music in our programs.Connect with Emily and learn more: Blog - Rebel Music TeachereBook - Guide to Teachable Features in Popular MusicPhysical Book - Guide to Teachable Features in Popular MusicLearn more about Pass the Baton:Pass the Baton websiteJoin the Coffee ClubSupport Pass the BatonAmplify student voice with Exit Tickets for Self Reflection

“I was one of those people that had some biases against pop music. Being in show choirs and seeing the ways that the songs were transformed and arranged really opened my eyes to different styles of music and changed my perspective. I no longer view popular music as being all that different from classical music or film scores. There's just something about arranging: taking all these pieces of a song and figuring out how to put them together. It's almost like doing a puzzle. It unlocks some of the same parts of my brain.”Garrett Breeze is a Nashville-based composer best known for his catalog of more than 1,500 choral arrangements of popular music, including more than 1,000 written for competitive show choirs.  For the past 15 years, Garrett has been actively involved in the show choir community as an arranger, show designer, clinician, and adjudicator, working with hundreds of choirs across the country.  His music is published by Breeze Tunes and Shawnee Press and regularly appears on J.W. Pepper's Editor's Choice and other recommended lists.As a skilled freelance orchestrator and music preparer, Garrett has contributed to a wide range of media projects, including 12 large-format films, Christmas with the Tabernacle Choir, and popular video games like World of Warcraft and Overwatch. He has also worked with renowned artists such as Brian Stokes Mitchell, Jordan Smith, Kristin Chenoweth, Michael W. Smith, Santino Fontana, Sutton Foster, and Tauren Wells. His original production music has been featured globally in commercials on all major television networks and in well-known TV shows such as Access Hollywood, Judge Judy, and Lego Masters.Garrett holds a Bachelor's degree in Media Music from Brigham Young University and a Master's degree in Commercial Composition and Arranging from Belmont University.

This is the story of a song. Yet, it is a song that binds nearly every strand of 20th-century American popular music. “Hey Joe” was written sometime in the early 1960s by a man named Billy Roberts, an obscure singer and guitarist from South Carolina who moved to New York City, drawn by the burgeoning folk music scene in Greenwich Village. It was a time when new, original material was scarce, leading other singers to quickly adapt songs of quality in the spirit of folk music's oral traditions. Thus began the long journey of “Hey Joe” from New York coffeehouses to the bars on L.A.'s Sunset Strip to the ears of a young guitarist named Jimi Hendrix who launched his career with his radical, electrified interpretation. Extensively researched, That Gun in Your Hand: The Strange Saga of ‘Hey Joe' and Popular Music's History of Violence (Anvil Press, 2025) also presents previously unpublished information about the life of Billy Roberts, a shadowy figure whose 2017 death went unreported by all news outlets. With a Foreword by Lenny Kaye. Jason Schneider has written for Exclaim!, The Globe & Mail, The Toronto Star, Paste, American Songwriter, Relix, Shindig and many other media outlets. He is the co-author of Have Not Been The Same: the CanRock Renaissance 1985-1995, and his other books include Whispering Pines: the Northern Roots of American Music, and the novel 3,000 Miles. He currently lives in Kitchener, Ontario. Jason Schneider on Bluesky.

This episode of The American Tapestry Project begins on “Popular Music: A Window Into the Soul of America.” It examines the Top Ten Hits of the 20th Century for cultural insights as it surveys the history of American popular music from 19th century minstrelsy shows to the latest streaming “hit” on the platform of your choice. “American Pop” and the tapestry of America's many stories. This episode asks, “What was the Top Hit of the 20th century? Spoiler alert” It wasn't “White Christmas.” “All this and more”, as they say on late night TV, on Episode 52 of The American Tapestry Project.

While today marks the 50th anniversary of the Miami Showband Massacre, a new book explores the extraordinary impact the showbands had on Irish society more broadly, from the pleasure they brought to Irish people's lives during the dull economic landscape of mid-century Ireland, to the new ways of dancing that they ushered in…Joining guest host Tom Dunne to discuss is Rebecca Miller, Author of ‘Are You Dancing: Showbands, Popular Music, and Memory in Modern Ireland'.

Kelefa Sanneh was born in England, and lived in Ghana and Scotland before moving with his parents to the United States in the early 1980s. He was a pop music critic at the New York Times from 2000-2008, and has been a staff writer at the New Yorker since then. His first book, just released on Penguin, is called Major Labels: A History of Popular Music in Seven Genres. The book refracts the entire history of popular music over the past fifty years through the big genres that have defined and dominated it—rock, R&B, country, punk, hip-hop, dance music, and pop—as an art form (actually, a bunch of art forms), as a cultural and economic force, and as a tool that we use to build our identities. Sanneh shows how these genres have been defined by the tension between mainstream and outsider, between authenticity and phoniness, between good and bad, right and wrong. Throughout, race is a powerful touchstone: just as there have always been Black audiences and white audiences, with more or less overlap depending on the moment, there has been Black music and white music, constantly mixing and separating. Sanneh debunks cherished myths, reappraises beloved heroes, and upends familiar ideas of musical greatness, arguing that sometimes, the best popular music isn't transcendent. Songs express our grudges as well as our hopes, and they are motivated by greed as well as idealism; music is a powerful tool for human connection, but also for human antagonism. This is a book about the music everyone loves, the music everyone hates, and the decades-long argument over which is which. Franz Nicolay is a musician and writer living in New York's Hudson Valley. His first book, The Humorless Ladies of Border Control: Touring the Punk Underground from Belgrade to Ulaanbaatar, was named a "Season's Best Travel Book" by The New York Times. Buzzfeed called his second book, Someone Should Pay for Your Pain, "a knockout fiction debut." He teaches at Bard College. Learn more about your ad choices.

On this episode Marc talks with Jason Schneider, author of "That Gun in Your Hand: The Strange Saga of ‘Hey Joe' and Popular Music's History of Violence," published in June of 2025. It's a fascinating look at the way the song "Hey Joe" has weaved its way through music over the course of the past six decades, from its origin in the hands of a singer and guitarist named Billy Roberts, through its height of fame when covered by Jimi Hendrix, through numerous different covers, interpretations, and re-imaginings. As Jason writes, "Great art, even in the form of a three-and-a-half- minute song, exists because of its ability to withstand attempts at dissection. “Hey Joe” is still being performed and recorded today because its expression of raw human emotion remains undiminished."You can buy "That Gun in Your Hand" here.We hope you enjoy Marc's conversation with Jason Schneider!

This is am excerpt from a patrons-only episode. To hear the full thing along with dozen more, visit Patreon.com/LoveMessagePod and sign up for as little as £3 a month.In this patrons-only episode we welcome writer Toby Manning to the show to discuss his recent book Mixing Pop and Politics: A Marxist History of Popular Music. Toby's book offers a political reading of popular music, taking as its methodological starting point the songs found in the charts from the 1950s to the present day, to explore how the music people listen to reflects and resists the politics of their time in fascinating ways.In this show Jeremy, Tim and Toby discuss the charts themselves, how we think of 'popular music', and discuss lyrics as a tool for analysis. This being LITM, we of course spend some time on the hits of the 1970s, but we hear also about '80s synth pop and yacht rock, Annie Lennox, MJ, and contemporary artists like FKA Twigs and Little Sims. Also found inside: the GLC, the High Sixties and Kneecap.Thanks to Toby for coming on the show.

John Cale is probably best known as a founding member of Velvet underground, but the four years he spent alongside Lou Reed represent a small fraction of the influence Cale has had on modern music. In this episode, recorded live at MTSU's Center for Popular Music, Ben talks to his friend and colleague Mark Doyle about his new book in the 33 1/3 series, which explores John Cale's 1973 album Paris 1919 and where it (may) fit within the greater context of his career, the evolution of rock music, and world history. Mark Doyle is a Professor of History at Middle Tennessee State University and previously joined us to discuss his book on The Kinks in episode 169. His new book is John Cale's Paris 1919 and you can get your copy here. A special thanks to Greg Reish & Martin Fisher at the Center for Popular Music for hosting, recording and allowing us to share this conversation. Join us for a live recording of the Road to Now in Washington, DC on May 29 at The Hamilton Live ft. guests Major Garett, Margaret Talev & Doug Heye. The theme is murder & mayhem in the capital city- get your tickets here! This episode was edited by Ben Sawyer.

The clothes you wear project an image to others. But those same clothes you wear influence you as well. Listen and discover how different clothes and different colors you wear change the way you act and even how you think of yourself. https://www.nytimes.com/2012/04/03/science/clothes-and-self-perception.html Think of all the different kinds of popular music there are: country, rock, hip-hop, pop, R&B, jazz and more. All that music came from somewhere. And those musical origins tell some fascinating stories. If you enjoy music, listen to my conversation with Kelefa Sanneh. He is a writer for The New Yorker, former pop music critic for the New York Times, contributor to the CBS Sunday Morning program and author of the book Major Labels: A History of Popular Music in Seven Genres (https://amzn.to/3npafT2). You are going to hear some great stories! Who hasn't found themselves in money trouble at some point? One big reason why that happens is that people don't closely examine how much money they earn or how they spend it. Interestingly, even people who think they do, often do not – according to my guest Jill Schlesinger. Jill is a certified financial planner, award winning business analyst for CBS News, host of the Jill on Money podcast and radio show and author of the book The Great Money Reset (https://amzn.to/3JGJ91e). If you want to get some sound financial advice and ways to get a clear view of your financial life, you'll want to hear what Jill has to say.

Whatever happened to selling out? The defining concern of Generation X has become a relic from another era. How that happened is best illustrated by one of the idea's last gasps, when in 2001, Oprah Winfrey invited author Jonathan Franzen to come on her show to discuss his new novel The Corrections. A month later, she withdrew the invitation, kicking off a media firestorm. The Oprah-Franzen Book Club Dust-Up of 2001 was a moment when two ways of thinking about selling out smashed into each other, and one of them—the one that was on its way out already—crashed and burned in public, seldom to be seen again. Some of the voices you'll hear in this episode include screenwriter Helen Childress; writer and musician Franz Nicolay; New York Times critic Wesley Morris, Oprah producer Alice McGee; Boris Kachka, author of Hothouse: The Art of Survival and the Survival of Art at America's Most Celebrated Publishing House, Farrar, Straus, and Giroux; Bethany Klein, author of Selling Out: Culture, Commerce and Popular Music; and Laura Miller, Slate's book critic.

Deposits into this account are used to purchase 10 investment-grade and high-yield bonds. As of 9/26/24, the average, annualized yield to worst (YTW) across the Bond Account is greater than 6%. A bond's yield is a function of its market price, which can fluctuate; therefore, a bond's YTW is not “locked in” until the bond is purchased, and your yield at time of purchase may be different from the yield shown here. The “locked in” YTW is not guaranteed; you may receive less than the YTW of the bonds in the Bond Account if you sell any of the bonds before maturity or if the issuer defaults on the bond. Public Investing charges a markup on each bond trade. See our Fee Schedule. Bond Accounts are not recommendations of individual bonds or default allocations. The bonds in the Bond Account have not been selected based on your needs or risk profile. See https://public.com/disclosures/bond-account to learn more. Learn more about your ad choices.
