“Not That Simple”

Not That Simple

‘Bloom implies that all popular music “has the beat of sexual intercourse.” Taking exactly the same view, Steven Tyler of the hard rock band Aerosmith boasts: “It’s rhythm and blues, its twos and fours, it’s f***ing.” In general, neither friend nor foe acknowledges that the monotonous beat of hard rock (and, indeed, of much rap) is a travesty of the rich, tireless, complicated rhytms of Afro-American music at its best. All I can say to such people is, if the rhythms of good jazz, funk, blues, or gospel remind you of sexual intercourse, then — well, my hat’s off to you’ (Martha Bayles, Hole in our Soul, p. 11).

In some places, the standards have simply collapsed.

Braying Jackass

“I gave my sections to Randy for editing & blending”

I mentioned that I needed to state a few specifics. One of them is that after I gave my sections to Randy for editing and blending, I did not do anything more. I looked at the manuscript when it came in, but did not read through the whole book, left to right. I do not know that doing so would have changed anything, but it could have. This is an example of practical responsibility.
