Top 700 Popular Musical Artists, Bands & Rock Groups
POPULAR MUSIC belongs to any of a number of musical genres "having wide appeal" and is typically distributed to large audiences through the music industry. It stands in contrast to both art music and traditional music, which are typically disseminated academically or orally to smaller, local audiences. The original application of the term is to music of the 1880s Tin Pan Alley period in the United States. Although popular music sometimes is known as "pop music," the two terms are not interchangeable. Popular music is a generic term for music of all ages that appeals to popular tastes, whereas pop music usually refers to a specific musical genre.
ROCK MUSIC is a genre of popular music that originated as "rock and roll" in the United States in the 1950s, and developed into a range of different styles in the 1960s and later, particularly in the United Kingdom and the United States. It has its roots in 1940s' and 1950s' rock and roll, itself heavily influenced by rhythm and blues and country music. Rock music also drew strongly on a number of other genres such as blues and folk, and incorporated influences from jazz, classical and other musical sources.
Musically, rock has centered on the electric guitar, usually as part of a rock group with electric bass guitar and drums. Typically, rock is song-based music usually with a 4/4 time signature using a verse-chorus form, but the genre has become extremely diverse. Like pop music, lyrics often stress romantic love but also address a wide variety of other themes that are frequently social or political in emphasis. The dominance of rock by white, male musicians has been seen as one of the key factors shaping the themes explored in rock music. Rock places a higher degree of emphasis on musicianship, live performance, and an ideology of authenticity than pop music.
SOUL MUSIC Soul music is a popular music genre that originated in the United States in the 1950s and early 1960s. It combined elements of African-American gospel music, rhythm and blues, and often jazz. Soul music became popular for dancing and listening in the United States – where record labels such as Motown, Atlantic and Stax labels were influential during the period of the civil rights movement. Soul also became popular around the world, directly influencing rock music and the music of Africa.
RHYTHM AND BLUES, often abbreviated to R&B or RnB, is a genre of popular African-American music that originated in the 1940s. The term was originally used by record companies to describe recordings marketed predominantly to urban African Americans, at a time when "urbane, rocking, jazz based music with a heavy, insistent beat" was becoming more popular. In the commercial rhythm and blues music typical of the 1950s through the 1970s, the bands usually consisted of piano, one or two guitars, bass, drums, saxophone, and sometimes background vocalists. R&B lyrical themes often encapsulate the African-American experience of pain and the quest for freedom and joy. Lyrics focus heavily on the themes of triumphs and failures in terms of relationships, freedom, economics, aspirations, and sex.
Bands & Rock Groups: A-Z
- 10 Iconic Rock Albums from the 1970s Everyone Should Own - "The 1970s were flush with excellent - truly excellent - rock albums that icons have to be left off this list - say it ain’t so, George Harrison! Not only that but while we highlight groups like the Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin, they have multiple albums that could be on this list. But there is only room for one apiece. Albums everyone must not only listen to but listen to on repeat. Albums that should be owned on vinyl as well as digitally."
- 10 most popular songs to die to, from Sinatra to Cyndi Lauper - "Marie Curie says music can help the dying connect with what it means to be human. Their playlist shows some want sombre reflection and some still want to have fun. The top ten: 1. My Way, Frank Sinatra. 2. I Will Always Love, Whitney Houston. 3. The Best, Tina Turner. 4. Over the Rainbow, Judy Garland. 5. Girls Just Want to Have Fun, Cyndi Lauper. 6. Angels, Robbie Williams. 7. What a Wonderful World, Louis Armstrong. 8. Beautiful, Christina Aguilera. 9. Hey Jude, The Beatles. 10. These Are the Days of Our Lives, Queen."
- 10 musicians who killed their careers in seconds - "Just because your time in the spotlight is gone doesn’t mean it’s entirely over, and many artists have successfully made second acts, either on the indie circuit or building themselves back up to at least a modest position in the music industry. Some may have been able to muscle through their controversial pasts, but they would never see the heights of their glory years ever again."
- John Lennon celebrated on Royal Mint coin for 85th birthday - "The coin, which will go on sale on Monday, features a portrait of Lennon that is based on a famous image taken by music industry photographer Bob Gruen in 1974. It depicts a side profile of Lennon, taken on the roof of his penthouse in New York. Lennon was shot dead by Mark David Chapman in New York on Dec. 8, 1980 at the age of 40."
- Krautrock: The 1970s bands which helped post-war Germany overcome its dark history - "Fifty years ago, German rock groups including Neu!, Can and Kraftwerk created an eclectic sound that had never been heard before. It remains as exhilarating as ever."
- Mick Jagger says his kids ‘don’t need $500 million’ as he hints he may give away their inheritance - "Jagger’s eight kids, Karis, Jade, Elizabeth, James, Georgia May, Lucas, Gabriel and Deveraux, range in age six to 52."
- Mick Jagger’s 80 greatest moments, on his 80th birthday - "The singer who invented the very idea of the frontman has reached his ninth decade. We pick out the Jagger-iest moments of all, from killer lyrics to self-mocking sketches."
- Paul McCartney & the song that made him John Lennon’s equal - "When Paul wrote Yesterday in 1965, he changed pop for ever. Was he, not John Lennon, now the real star in the Beatles? In a second extract from his new book, Ian Leslie unpicks the origin story of a masterpiece."
- The Beatles created a painting together while on tour in Japan. Now it’s up for auction - "That painting, believed by some experts to be the only artwork jointly made by all four Beatles (or at least signed by all four), will be up for sale at Christie’s auction house in New York on February 1."
- The Beatles: The long & winding road to The Beatles' break-up - "It could be said eight violins, four violas, four cellos, three trumpets, three trombones, two guitars, and a choir of fourteen women were what finally broke up The Beatles. 'It was the straw that broke the camel's back,' according to Denise Kelly who has studied more than 300 pages of legal documents relating to the Fab Four's demise."
- What Happens When a Pop Star Isn’t That Popular? - "Pop’s middle class enjoys loyal online fan bases. For these artists, pop stardom isn’t a commercial category, but a sound, an aesthetic and an attitude." The New York Times.
