| | Al Rose |
 | | One theory Al Rose tended to favor was that when the immensely popular New Orleans performances of the Eighth Cavalry Regiment Mexican military band at the World's Industrial and Cotton Centennial Exposition in 1884 came to an end, the eighty musicians sold their instruments in New Orleans. | | | So, when Al Rose said jazz was dead, he did not mean African American music was dead, swing was dead, blues was dead, rock and roll was dead, bop was dead, or modern jazz was dead. | | | Sometimes he would mention a musician and say that he played so well that it seemed like he was not just a musician but was somehow connected to jazz itself. |

| | But the new Dead music was also naturally different from bands like Dylan's or the Spoonful, partly because their fellow musician Phil Lesh came out of a schooled classical and electronic-music background, while Ron "Pigpen" McKernan was a no-nonsense deep blues lover and drummer Bill Kreutzmann had a jazz background. | | | Grateful Dead members have said that it was after attending a concert by the touring New York "folk-rock" band The Lovin' Spoonful that they decided to "go electric." Gradually, many of the East-Coast American folk musicians, formerly luminaries of the coffee-house scene, were moving in the electric direction. | | | Starting in 1991, the Grateful Dead released numerous live concerts from their archives in two concurrent series: the From the Vault releases are multi-track remixes, whereas the Dick's Picks series (named for the band's late archivist, Dick Latvala) are based on two-track mixes made at the time of the recording. |

| | Dead Kennedys Discography and Biography at Mr Bill's IRS Records Corner |
| | Dead Kennedys began when vocalist Jello Biafra answered an ad placed by musician East Bay Ray (Raymond Peppernel). | | | From the outset, Dead Kennedys were much more than a "typical punk band." They were clearly more musically skilled than their peers and, most impressively, the lyrics were dripping with sardonic wit. | | | This LP ultimately (and indirectly) led to the demise of the Dead Kennedys. |

| | Rolling Stone : Brian Jones Found Dead |
| | Brian Jones, rhythm guitarist with the Rolling Stones from their inception in 1962 until his departure early last month, is dead. | | | Jones' idea was to overdub the largely-percussion-and chant sounds with Western RandB for an album. | | | Jones was a fine scholar, excelling in English and music, but he hated sports --"I couldn't stand all that organization," he recalled -- and put homework aside so that he could listen to records and the radio. |

In 1966, he spent six months performing with Bobby Freeman, and joined Moby Grape in 1977, writing one tune for the "Live Grape" album. |
