    John Bubbles is referenced by Heathcote Williams in his poem in celebration of Lord Buckley
    internationaltimes.it/h-r-h-lo...
    Buckley explained, “I fell in love with the dialect
    “Of the American Beauty Negro.”
    It was to give his delivery an old time gospel beat
    And to turn him into a countercultural hero -
    Who fizzed across the firmament utterly possessed
    Of a uniquely free spirit to undermine
    The stultifying roadblock of gray, fifties America
    With his life enhancing sparkle and shine.
    An old static language that didn’t say anything anymore
    Couldn’t compare with his syncopated bebop beat
    Which took the spoken word and transformed it
    Through the living poetry of the street.

      No. He said (correctly) it’s from Grieg’s incidental music for Ibsen’s play, “Peer Gynt” (it’s not a symphony - although it is played by an orchestra. Grieg took a lot of his incidental music from the play and used it in a Suite of pieces) 😃

    Awesome. I've been obsessing lately over how this was forty years in my past when I was absorbing Punk and Industrial and Van Halen and Michael Jackson was on the Radio (In fact I'm pretty sure there was still a Big Band radio station), but now Ministry and the Dead Kennedys are 40yrs in my own kid's distant past. I can't get it out of my head that Run DMC and Talking Heads are as far-distant to my kids as Tommy Dorsey and Charley Barnett is to me...

    • @carollund8251
      @carollund8251 11 місяців тому +8

      Well don't fool yourself because that kind of music would be very difficult to start with! The rhythms are difficult to master, the two hands coordinating together is a complex process. I agree a lot of material for beginners is boring and could be taught in a more creative way, but even very simplified versions of boogie woogie or ragtime would be very hard for a beginner to do and anyway a super simplified version would be boring anyway!

    • @Pekka.Pekka.1296
      @Pekka.Pekka.1296 10 місяців тому +3

      Trust me: boogie is my final goal to achieve on my piano journey however the rhythm is craaaazy hard. Even with two fingers, really.
      The bass seems fair lyeasy (four notes) but the rhythm makes it hard to play. Get a good teacher who makes the “boring” stuff interesting.
      I play bot Mozart and Einaudi, Beethoven and cute Disney stuff. Mixing the syles keeps your motivation high while improves your technique.
      For me it’ll take years but I love playing so much I know I don’t care, with enough practice I will reach that level. You can do it too.
      Just never give up!
