2.6 The Gestalt
With the two versions of the song “Come Together” one would expect the melody to be the same or pretty similar, and it is at some points, but with the two very different style of the two artists, there is some variation in the two melodies. For example, in the Canadian Brass version, there are occasional riffs that reflect possible inflections that could have been done vocally in the Aerosmith version, which makes up for no vocals in the Canadian Brass version. So, the melodies are similar in the two different version but are mostly different in small variation of different inflections of vocals and progressions of instruments.
The registers of the two songs are clearly different because the Canadian Brass version does not

One difference in the two harmonies though, is in the Aerosmith version, how each layer in the harmony individually seems to fit better in the song, like it clearly belongs to “Come Together” and not something that could be found in any song. In the Canadian Brass version, a lot of the time, some layers found don’t seem to not match, but have the feel that they could fit in a variety of other songs.
The texture of the two pieces are fairly different because of the different style of the two artists. In both versions, the texture is polyphonic and mixed. I would say the Aerosmith version is a bit heavier because you cannot always tell what instruments are playing when, and in the Canadian Brass versions, most of the time the instruments being played are identifiable.
Rhythm wise, the tempo in the Aerosmith version is faster paced than the Canadian Brass one. The aerosmith version feels slower even at the beginning when it is at a slower tempo because of elements like the drums and vocals in the beginning. I think the Canadian Brass version especially feels much slower in tempo than it actually is because of its marching band esque feel because of all the brass instruments and the lack of vocals. Though they have different tempos, the beat in both versions are very strong and drives the
The song “Seven Come Eleven” and “After You’ve Gone” are two very different songs, but they do have a few similarities. Both of them have ride rhythms that are played on the high-hat, although in the song “After You’ve Gone” the tempo is drastically faster. Both songs have four choruses with solos and the solos are very vibrant and colorful. The major differences are that the song “After You’ve Gone” is performed by a traditional big band with brass instruments and saxophones. The song “Seven Come Eleven” used a vibraphone and no brass instruments or saxophones, whereas the song “After You’ve Gone” used all of those instruments except the vibraphone. The tempo of both songs is extremely different and the pitch of the instruments from the song
Jimi Hendrix’s version of All Along the Watchtower begins similarly to Dylan’s, then shifts to a new beat that provides a new light and explains
The former bears a classic Siena Root summer vibe, complete with cool bass lines, crunchy guitar leads and "pocket" drumming. Sam leaves enough room for the instrumental to take off, but has a nice presence throughout. He knows when to keep it calm or soar over the riffs. 'The Piper Won't Let You Stay' is a classic blues number that borrows some of Billy Gibbons' prowess, only to be enhanced by Hammond organ touches. I really dig the bass' tone, being deep and powerful when needed. Moreover, closing track, 'The Echoes Unfold' is a sunny rocker, switching from airy verses to epic choruses without being cheesy. The powerful vocals shine here and towards the end, one final jam ends this journey really beautiful. I wish they kept it going, much like 'In My Kitchen' closed Pioneers on a high
Leadbelly was much different than B.B they were in different time periods so their music styles were much different.
There are many different renditions of the National Anthem. Some are kept traditional, while others are turned into songs that make people think differently about our National Anthem.
This creates a beautiful blending of the two parts together and shows that this song was written to showcase the vocals.
Have you ever noticed the similarity of guitar riff in Vanilla Ice's “Ice, Ice, Baby” and David Bowie's “Under Pressure?” In 1990 Vanilla Ice came out with a new song called, "To the Extreme", that included the number one hit "Ice, Ice, Baby.” This song had the same baseline as the song “Under Pressure" by David Bowie. David Bowie's song went, “Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom, Bing”; and Vanilla Ice's song went, 'Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom,
The two songs, El Chicano’s “Viva Tirado” and Booker T and the MG’s “Melting Pot,” differences can be heard through their usage of instruments and beats. In the beginning of “Viva Tirado,” gives off a very jazzy feeling with the piano notes, cymbals and brass which indicated the African style influences on the genre. However, the constant steady and structured beats of the song suggested Chicano influences. “Viva Tirado” feels very structured with repetitive sounds throughout the entire song unlike “Melting Pot” where the beats are changing between slow and fast constantly with improvisations. The act of beats changing implies that there are layers or polyrhythms to the sounds in “Melting Pot,” a characteristic of Stax music. The improvisation
To start things off, we will discuss the similarities. There are three that jump right off the page: one, both these songs were first released in the third album of the respective artists; two, both songs were released in the 1960s decade; and three, both songs were formatted along 7" diameter i.e. both were phonograph records.
The album begins with the hard-rocker “Come Together”. The song is a perfect example of John Lennon’s rock influence in the Beatles. “Come Together” is a song that’s popularity has been
One quote from “ I Hear America Singing” that relates to the similarities is “ The day what belongs to the day - at night the party of young fellows, robust, friendly, Singing with open mouths their strong melodious songs.” Another similarity is that they both address the same audience which is
Though these songs are both very different and don't have much in common with one another lyric
Just as easily though, you can recognize their differences. The first distinguishing factor is the tempo; one has an energetic upbeat feel to it while the other has a much slower melancholy feel. And while both songs have only guitars as their instruments the style is where each differs. Son House uses a technique called bottlenecking, a style to vary the vibrating length and pitch of a guitar note by using an object referred to as a slide while on “Walkin’ Blues”, bassist Bill Black uses a technique called slap bass style, where by slapping and popping the guitar strings to produce a percussive effect on “Blue Moon of Kentucky”.
Cannabis; the gateway drug to harder narcotics or mankind’s unused saviour? Is cannabis as bad as we are led to believe or is it an untapped natural resource that the higher powers refuse to acknowledge? Since 1928 cannabis has been illegal in the United Kingdom. However it is also the most extensively used drug within the UK. This naturally found plant is known around the world, mainly for giving its users a ‘high’ however what many people don’t know is that this plant has also been tested and proven to give a positive effect on society; economically, medically, industrially and morally.
In the story “The Fall of the House of Usher”, Edgar Allen Poe describes an eerie house which reflects the characteristics and the fate of the owner living inside. As the story begins, the reader is introduced to a house that is slowly decaying away and falling apart. The narrator describes his feelings as he first sees the house and says, “A sense of insufferable gloom pervaded my spirit. I say insufferable; for the feeling was unrelieved by any of that half-pleasurable”(1).This observation of the house mirrors the narrator’s observation of Roderick. Roderick’s gloomy nature manifests itself in his action that the narrator describes as “Alternately vivacious and sullen”(1).
