Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame and Museum
collaborates with
Cuyahoga Community College
to open the new
Rock 'n' Roll Library and Archives
only in Cleveland!
When a song really moves us, it lives in a special place in our hearts and our brains. We go to that place over and over to cherish and be nurtured by its magic. We wonder about the life of the artist, or the story behind the song, or the roots of the musical style. That's why there's a Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame and Museum - to indulge our sense of wonder, to seek insight, to understanding the power, and to share these thoughts and feelings with others. Some people said that a museum for rock 'n' roll would take the life out of it, but that didn't happen. Some say that teaching and studying rock 'n' roll removes it from its natural habitat, waters it down, drains its vitality. But that doesn't stop people from teaching it, or studying it.
Well, now, for those who just can't get enough, for those who need to know MORE, who need to know EVERYTHING about their favorite song, or band, or genre, there's a place where you can really get lost in the recesses of your musical curiosity. The new Rock 'n' Roll Library and Archives is open for business, and it's free. It's a reference library on the campus of Tri-C downtown where you can read anything and everything ever published about all the roots and branches of our most popular musical forms. At least that's the goal; the project is new and growing fast. They already have more books about doo-wop and jazz and punkabilly and hip hop and metal and slave field chants than you could read in a lifetime.
But there's more: buried in a secret climate-controlled cave high above the library are... the archives. Here live thousands and thousands of original documents from the history of recorded music. The collection is growing so fast it will take years to catalog and organize. It's a labor of love and professionalism, and it's open to the public. If you ask nicely you, too, may be able to see and read original lyric sheets, recording contracts and love letters of your favorite artists. There are mint pressings of the rarest of albums. Original periodicals, from Downbeat to Tiger Beat. Fanzines from the personal collections of writers like Ben Fong-Torres and Greg Shaw. Correspondance between artists and their record companies. Contact sheets from the first photo session with Talking Heads (they look like children)!
The importance of studying primary source material is obvious to any historian. The details, even its essence, of any story are changed by its telling and retelling, especially in the mass media age. To get to the truth, you need to get as close to the original source as you can. That's scholarship, but it's also a heart-stopping treat for any music fan who stumbles across an unexpected letter, a revealing photograph, or an original news article with an unvarnished nugget of first-hand observation.
Right now the archive collection is growing so fast that most of it is sorted not by subject, but simply by the name of whoever donated it. Cassettes, wax masters, vinyl, notes, photographs, grocery-store receipts... where does it end? How much ephemera does it take to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth about this fleeting, invisble art form we call music? These are questions to be addressed by the dedicated staff of the archives, but the beneficiaries of all of this effort are you and me. You don't have to be an academic to wonder about Amy Winehouse's first piano lessons or Carl Perkin's fight for his right to party. Drink deep my friends. Your inner music junkie is going to love it.

Transcript:
Hi. My name is Michelle, and I am currently an intern in the Public Affairs Section at the
U.S. Embassy Vienna. Today, I'm here to tell you about my home state of Ohio.
Ohio often serves as a bridge between the Midwest and the Northeast, making it a popular hub for business. After all, it is home to Wendy's and Abercrombie & Fitch.
Ohio sits on Lake Erie to the north and is bordered by the Ohio River to the South allowing for many ports, as well as a lot of sailing, kayaking, and fishing. The river also gave Ohio its name. The Iroquois word ohi-yo means great river.
Native Americans inhabited Ohio for quite some time, with the Adena and Hopewell tribes being the most famous. Both tribes were mound-builders leaving behind spectacular works that are still studied today, mainly the Great Serpent Mound of the Adena and the earthworks from the Hopewell. However, these and most other indigenous cultures disappeared from Ohio by the late 17th century.
On March 1, 1803, Ohio became the 17th state. Today, Ohio has three major cities, known as the three C's, which cut diagonally across the state. Cincinnati is in the southwest, Columbus, the state capital, in the middle, and Cleveland, the Mistake on the Lake, in the northeast, where I'm from.
On the shore of Lake Erie, Cleveland is home to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. While
often picked on by outsiders, Cleveland is a great place to live. It is also home to several
professional sports teams, including with my favorite baseball team-the Cleveland Indians. Go Tribe! Cleveland also has the second largest Playhouse Square in the country and the Cleveland Clinic and University hospitals which are world-renowned.
Also, my home town is often used as a backdrop in movies. In fact, The Avengers was
partially filmed in Cleveland and the upcoming Iron Man III and Captain America will
be as well.
Columbus is home to one of the largest college campuses in the country, The Ohio State
University, home of the Buckeyes, where you can always here our state rock song, Hang on Sloopy. As with most schools, our football team is the most well-known with seven national championships, but we can claim dozens of championships in other sports as well. Olympic gold-medalist Jesse Owens, basketball-star Bobby Knight, and golfer Jack Nicklaus all attended Ohio State.
Ohio is known as the Buckeye state, after the Ohio Buckeye Tree. Another nickname is the Birthplace of Aviation, as Ohio was home to the Wright brothers. Ohio is also the
birthplace of seven presidents and home to an eighth. One of these presidents James A.
Garfield lived less than twenty minutes from my home.
Ohio is home to both John Glenn, the first American to orbit the Earth, and Neil
Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon.
If you get out of the cities, you will see the beauty of Ohio that I love. The farmlands,
forests, and gentle hills are great for hiking, picnics, and even swimming if you're so brave. Here you can get all four seasons, gorgeous sunsets, and can drink your morning coffee while watching the deer in your backyard.
Ohio offers the best of both worlds, with the bustle of the city and the beauty of the country, so I invite you to visit-we have something for everyone.

More information about the video content bellow:
1. Ohio didn't officially become a state until 1953. It was declared a state in 1803, but didn't get the presidential stamp of approval until President Dwight Eisenhower signed off. He back-dated the declaration to the original date.
2. The Cuyahoga River has caught on fire at least 13 times; it’s aptly nicknamed “The River That Caught Fire.” The river was one of the most polluted rivers in the country and would catch fire after sparks from the train would fall into the water. After a highly media-covered fire in 1969, Congress was inspired to clean up pollution across the country and established the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
3. Cleveland may seem like a strange place for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but it makes more sense than most people probably realize. Alan Freed, a disc jockey at Cleveland’s WJW station, coined the term “rock and roll” on his radio show and was also instrumental in introducing a larger audience to rhythm and blues. New York City was also in the running, but in the end, Cleveland lobbied harder (and ponied up $65 million in public funding).
4. Newark, Ohio, is probably the only place in the world where hundreds of people work in a basket. The Longaberger basket company headquarters is world-renowned for its distinct shape. The massive “Medium Market Basket” stands 7 stories tall and covers about 180,000 square feet, with handles that weigh more than 150 tons.
5. Kelleys Island, located in the middle of Lake Erie, is where you’ll find Glacial Grooves State Memorial—the largest easily accessible set of glacial grooves anywhere in the world. The grooves are the result of glacier movement that dates back to the Pleistocene era; the largest one is 400 feet long, 35 feet wide, and up to 10 feet deep.
6. Professional baseball was born in Cincinnati. Prior to 1869, baseball was mostly a game for amateurs. There were a handful of men who made a living playing the sport, but for the most part, it was strictly a fun side gig. Then the 1869 Cincinnati Red Stockings came along with their all-star starting lineup—all nine men were paid professionals. Their expertise certainly showed. The team embarked upon a road trip later that year where they played against any town willing to put a team together. The Red Stockings won all 57 games.
7. The first-ever police car was used in Akron, Ohio, in 1899—and it was an electric car, at that. The patrol wagon could travel about 30 miles on one charge and could reach speeds up to a whopping 18 mph. Its first assignment? To pick up a drunk guy.

Apollo 100 - Telstar
Track 3 from Side 2 of Apollo 100's second album Master Pieces, released in 1972.
Apollo 100 was a short-lived British instrumental studio based group that stayed intact for only two years: 1972 and 1973. There was no vocalist in the band; instead, they had an arranger, Tom Parker, who first got the band together. They had one top ten hit song in the United States with the Johann Sebastian Bach-inspired single Joy, in 1972. Later that same year, they released Master Pieces, which wasn't as successful, and the band broke up in 1973.
The band members consisted of:
- Zed Jenkins (on guitar)
- Clem Cattini (on drums). Cattini was the drum player for the band Tornados prior to joining Apollo 100.
- Brian Odgers (on bass guitar)
- Vic Flick (on guitar). Among his most noted accomplishments, Flick played the guitar riff for the James Bond Theme song. One of his guitars can been seen at The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio.
- Jim Lawless (on percussion)
The following is the complete text found on the reverse side of the album cover, as shown in the video:

Apollo 100
Featuring Tom Parker
Master Pieces
Webster's dictionary defines masterpieces as anything done or made with extraordinary skill. World famous painters Chagall, Cezanne, Matisse, Monet, Raischenberg, Rembrandt and the like turned them out on canvas, while immortal music masters such as Bach, Chopin, Grieg, Tchaikovsky and Wagner did their thing(s) in manuscript form. All of which brings us not so subtly to the subject at hand. Apollo 100, the unique-sounding British aggregation that has achieved international recognition through its recorded treatments of classical masterpieces.
Comprised of the cream of Britain's recording studio musicians, Apollo 100 is the brain child of its leader, Tom Parker, a brilliant young arranger-musician. By lacing the basic chamber music sound with overtones of contemporary rock, Parker and Apollo 100 succeeded in capturing the imagination of record buyers everywhere with one of their very first singles releases, Joy (Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring from J.S. Bach's Cantata 147).
This album, Apollo 100's second, offers a program featuring old favorites dressed in new form by Beethoven, Chopin and Rossini; plus three exciting originals and the group's unique versions of the current favorites Nutrocker (Tchaikovsky revisited), Amazing Grace, Telstar, and Popcorn.

Etta James - I'd Rather Be Blind (Live at Montreux 1975)
For more info -
-- --
Etta James made many appearances at the Montreux Jazz Festival across her long and distinguished career from her first concert in 1975 through to her last in 2008.
This video focuses on the concert from 1975. It features many of her best loved tracks and songs that she is particularly associated with. Etta James was one of the most respected performers of her generation. In a career stretching over 60 years she was inducted into the Rock'n'Roll Hall Of Fame and the Blues Hall Of Fame, won 3 Grammys and received many more nominations and was named Female Blues Artist Of The Year on no less than 14 occasions.
Etta James sadly passed away after a long illness in January 2012 and this video is a fitting tribute to one of the greatest female vocalists of the 20th century.
