.... Towards the end of the ninth century dots and dashes and squiggles were written over the words in the church books. These signs, called neumes, showed the direction in which the melody should go. But they were still very vague. About 900 A.D. the music was made a little easier to read. The neumes were written at certain distances above or below the horizontal red line, representing the note F, to show how high or low the note should be sung. Then the staff was invented by a monk called Guido d'Arezzo. This was made of four lines. A method of notation that made it possible to show the length of each note was developed in the thirteenth and fourteenth centurie .....

.... of "Shuffle Along" and "Blackbirds". Black dramas with music, and particularly spirituals, remained in fashion. "The Green Pastures" is the best known example of this trend. As dramas about black life took on greater importance in the 1930's, they often borrowed from the musical comedy traditions of the 1920's.

You have to put at least some blame on the bands themselves. They feel that it is part of their job to indulge our wants.  We as lovers of what these songwriters do are appalled and disgusted by hearing anything but the best from our favorite bands.  Once we have what we want it's not long before we want more.  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 be .....

.... of his painful experiences, he is not bitter, and even credits those experiences with the success of his music. He has even stated that he "feels fortunate to have gone through an abusive childhood." The Neo-Freudian whose theory I feel related most closely to the little information that was given in 's biography would have to be Karen Horney. Due to the fact that she focused on the social relationship between a parent and a child, and believed that early relationships in life, particularly ones between parent and child, have a strong effect on the way a person's personality develops.
