The Beatles Yellow Submarine Comic Book
Paul S. Newman (Illustrator)
The Beatles agree to accompany Captain Fred in his Yellow Submarine and go to Pepperland to free it from the music hating Blue Meanies.
The Beatles, at the height of their popularity, made this cartoon of a land that is taken over by the Blue Meanies. They are recruited by an escapee to come and bring joy (and music) back to the land. The techniques are quite psychedelic in the cartoons and much care was taken to have the walks and mannerisms of the individual Beatles cartoons match the originals
Cultural Codes: Makings of a Black Music Philosophy
No art can survive without an understanding of, and dedication to, the values envisioned by its creators. No culture over time has existed without a belief system to sustain its survival. Black music is no different. In Cultural Codes: Makings of a Black Music Philosophy, William C. Banfield engages the reader in a conversation about the aesthetics and meanings that inform this critical component of our social consciousness.
The Renaissance was a brilliant period of artistic achievement and innovation, reflected in the art, literature and music of this time. Renaissance artists were in great demand by wealthy patrons seeking original paintings, sculptures, poetry, plays, music and more. Renaissance Art, Music & Literature explores the newly discovered uses of realism, mathematics and perspective in art; the introduction of new musical instruments and changes in musical style; and how literature flourished thanks to the invention of the printing press.
