Sitting In -- Rock Guitar

Sit in with the band and bring your playing to life! Soloing is an important part of your playing, but practicing on your own doesn't always get the creative juices flowing because there is nothing quite like the experience of sitting in with a full band. Since jamming with other musicians is not always possible, Sitting In: Rock Guitar brings the band to you! Practice comping patterns and soloing with the same energy you get with a real, live band. Expert guitarist Jared Meeker leads you through all the tips and techniques you need to give life to your practice sessions, inspiring you to add new sounds to your growing rock vocabulary. The DVD-ROM includes MP3 audio for every song mixed with and without solo guitar. The included TNT 2 software is a perfect practice tool since it lets you customize audio tracks for practice. Use it to slow down tracks, isolate and loop parts, and change tempos and keys. / Guitare

Radio and Roots Music along the Red River-In Louisiana Hayride - Radio And Roots Music Along The Red River Tracey E.W. Laird documents the history of the popular radio station exploring the role that northwestern Louisiana played in the development of both country music and rock and roll. This interdisciplinary study that combines original ethnomusicology research with social and oral history. On a Saturday night in 1948 Hank Williams stepped onto the stage of the Louisiana Hayride and sang 'Lovesick Blues.' Up to that point Williams's yodeling style had been pigeon-holed as hillbilly music cutting him off from the mainstream of popular music.

By tracing the dynamic history of the Hayride and its sponsoring station ethnomusicologist Tracey Laird reveals the critical role that this part of northwestern Louisiana played in the development of both country music and rock and roll. Delving into the past of this Red River city she probes the vibrant historical cultural and social backdrop for its dynamic musical scene. Sitting between the Old South and the West this one-time frontier town provided an ideal setting for the cross-fertilization of musical styles. The scene was shaped by the region's easy mobility the presence of a legal 'red-light' district from 1903-17 and musical interchanges between blacks and whites who lived in close proximity and in nearly equal numbers.
