They played together until 1969 when bass player Noel Redding left the band. He found a new bass player and renamed the band Gypsy Sun and Rainbows. He performed at Woodstock in 1969 playing a 2 hour long set. He later when on a tour with the reunited Jimi Hendrix experience. He died in 1970 when he fell asleep and choked on his vomit.
Many of the songs on the album even reached Top 40 status. The impressive musical talent on the first recording included vocals from several very famous rock stars. Later it was adapted to a stage play and then to movie screen in 1973. The true strength of the movie relies on Webber's music, Tim Rice's provocative lyrics, amazingly difficult vocal solos, and the intentionally minimalist themed costumes and set design. This musical or rock opera follows the last week of the life of Jesus Christ and Judas.
The Who formed in London in 1964, but did not gain notoriety until the late 1960’s. Their members included Pete Townsend (lead guitar, vocals), Keith Moon (drums), John Entwistle (bass guitar, vocals), and Roger Daltrey (lead vocals). For The Who, it was the way Townshend jumped in the air with his guitar, using a windmill motion to strum. It was also Keith Moon, kicking his drums, Entwistle standing in one place the whole show, or the thuggish, yet sexual manner in which Daltrey canvassed the stage. The Who has sold over one hundred million records (Rolling Stone Magazine).
The Revolver album is one of the greatest achievements in music history and one of the Beatles' greatest studio achievements. This album was made up of a lot of lyrical imagery. Like a sort of psychedelic imagery. In fact the lyrics to “Tomorrow Never Knows” was based on the Timothy Leary book, The Psychedelic Experience. Therefore, when you listen to all of the lyrics of every song on this album, one could say, Revolver is one of the very first psychedelic LPs – not only because of its numerous shifts in mood and production texture, but in the way it manipulates sounds (double tracking vocals) and the amplification and electronics to create new sounds on drums, the sitar, and guitars as well as other instruments.
Albert Ellis and wife, Debbie Joffe, in Jan 2007 (The Albert Ellis Site, 2007).1the Beatles meet The Jonas Brothers.

He always just seemed interested and worried about getting into his music to make sure his music deals were set and his shows were all ready on the road to success. Although, Bob Dylan did end up coming pretty close with some of his workers. For example, George Harrison became good friends. “Bob Dylan never really seemed to play the same song in the same way.” Every time Dylan would play a song either in public or in the recording room, he would some how change the melody or adjust the tune. He also switched some of the lyrics around, or added a few more notes.
Later when qualified as a legitimate sound engineer he went to work with Paul McCartney, The Hollies, and many others. His work on Pink Floyd’s Classic album Dark Side of the Moon, not only got him is first (of many) Grammy nomination, but got the attention of the world. That soon led to extreme successes as a producer, notably with Pilot’s Magic, John Milesa Highfly and Music and Steve Harley’s (Come up and See Me) Make Me Smile. He also produced the wildly successful Year of the Cat album with Al Stewart, and two albums with the band Ambrosia. In 1975, Alan met Eric Woolfson, who became his manager and partnered with Alan as a writer and performer.
Lester Young joined the Fletcher Henderson orchestra to replace Coleman Hawkins but didn’t stay very long due to his lack of loud, resonant, and vibrato-laden tone that Hawkins displayed as referred to on (p.265). After Young’s departure from the orchestra, he later rejoined Basie. I read that many black musicians’ careers were cut short due to racial prejudice.

Even in the 50’s rockstars seemed to live a more chaotic lifestyle but this did not become apparent to the public until the 60’s. Drug use has always seemed to be a big part of rock’n’roll and to this day that idea is not fading. LSD being the drug of choice in the 60’s and 70’s was very easily accessible and the artists music seem to imitate the effects of it. This became known as psychedelic rock; there lyrics usually seemed to revolve around something un-tangible like dreams or feelings. In this time you saw artist such as The Beatles, Pink Floyd, The Rolling Stones, and Bob Dylan.
