MUSI 009B. The Beatles

This course will offer a clear-eyed assessment of The Beatles’ work as they developed from a local cover band to arguably some of the most influential musicians of the 20th century. In-depth analysis of the band’s music, lyrics, performances, recording procedures and techniques, and creative influences (including such Chess/R&B and Motown artists as Chuck Berry, Larry Williams, Little Richard, Smokey Robinson; Classic Rockers such as Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, and Carl Perkins; later peer-influences such as Bob Dylan, the Beach Boys, and the British Blues Revival; and decidedly nonrock influences such as British Music Hall, Indian classical music, and avant-garde composer Karlheinz Stockhausen) will be offered. The impact the Fab Four had on the entertainment industry, fashion, business, and society as a whole will also be examined.

Open to all students without prerequisite.

1 credit.
