Part two
On July 25, 1965 Dylan performed at the Newport Folk Festival. The audience was full of students and professors studying rather than experiencing the great music that these artists were performing. Bob Dylan got attention really quick because of the hit he made in 1963 “Blowin’ in the Wind”. This song got him really famous. So when Dylan when on stage the first song he performed was “Maggie’s Farm”. He played this song on an electric guitar and parts of the crowd were surprised. Dylan was booed by a section of the audience. While the crowd was still booing at him he played two more songs, “Like a Rolling Stone” and “Phantom Engineer”. Dylan said “Let’s go man, that’s all” and walked off stage as the crowd was still booing him, some clapping. Dylan then came back on stage and performed two more songs, but by himself. He preformed “It’s all over now, Baby Blue” and “Mr. Tambourine Man”. The crowd was still shocked and silent during these two songs, but then after they started to cheer for him. http://www.gibson.com/en-us/Lifestyle/Features/spotlight-0725/
Eminem released his sixth album on May 15, 2009. His album was called relapse. He named his album this because he was addicted to lots of drugs and had to go to rehab for it. He went to rehab and then once he got out he relapsed. So then he made this album. Eminem was addicted to sleep medications and he claims that he was an hour away from death. That is when he admitted he had this problem. The album came out and it was a pretty good one, but not his best. Eminem has now been sober for a really long time. He has been sober for over a year now. (my Head)
In this Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band there are many people that I do not recognize and there are also some people that I do recognize. One person that I recognize is Karl Marx. The only reason I recognize this person is because I had to do a project on him last year for Sociology. I also recognize Bob Dylan. I know this guy because my dad is in love with him and also he is your (mr. Kefor) favorite artist. I also recognize John Lennon because come on who doesn’t know who that is. He is in the Beatles! There are also lots of people I don’t know in this picture. I don’t know who Wallace Berman is. I guess he is an artist. I got to look in to him more, maybe he is good. I also never heard of Sonny Liston. He is a boxer though. This could be bad that I don’t know who he is, but hey nothing I can do. Also I don’t recognize Diana Dors. This girl is an actress. These are 3 people o recognize and don’t recognize in this picture.
