Big Boss Man - Mance Lipscomb


Beau De Glen "Mance" Lipscomb ( 1895 – 1976)  was an American blues singer, guitarist and songster.
Years active : 1960–1976

On Jimmy Reed's recording of the song, Luther Dixon (a staff writer at Vee-Jay Records) and Al Smith (Reed's manager) are creditied as its composers. But according to Lipscomb's autobiography (titled "I Say for me a Parable"), it was written by agricultural laborers as a way of venting their frustrations over mistreatment. If I remember correctly, the book doesn't mention Dixon and Smith or Jimmy Reed's version. Lipscomb's story about the origin of the song may be correct, with Reed's version possibly having been an adaptation of the original.

Regarding the lyric "He's standing on the turnrow with a pistol in his hand," Lipscomb said that Texas field workers were watched over by bosses who were armed just as was done on the prison farms. Their employment situation was more like prison than a job

Я объявляю свой дом [безъядерной зоной!]
40 years ago Victor Tsoy composed a song abnormal for his country. Soviet Union felt cold war, the World youth festivals left in 1960s, no people-to-people diplomacy was practiced. And then the young rocker speaks as a minister: "I declare nuclear-free zone". Next spring Perestroyka began; and only several years after, the nuclear disarmament was declared by Gorbachov, new Soviet leader. Now with NATO nuclear weapons set near our towns, may this song initiate the new disarmament !.."

Season of the Witch

Season of the Witch
[1966]
Lyrics and music / Testo e musica / Paroles et musique / Sanat ja sävel: Donovan Phillips Leitch
Album / Albumi: Sunshine Superman
Altri interpreti / Also performed by
- Mike Bloomfield, Al Kooper & Stephen Stills - Super Sessions
- Lana Del Rey

Un classico della psichedelia, forse la più bella e famosa canzone di Donovan, dallo storico album Sunshine Superman.

La canzone in realtà non parla direttamente di caccia alle streghe. La stagione della Strega è quella immediatamente precedente a Halloween e nella canzone è utilizzata per raccontare la paranoia di Donovan, che nel 1966 era stato arrestato per possesso di marijuana e che si guarda alle spalle e dappertutto vede qualcuno che gli vuol far del male, poliziotti che lo vogliono arrestare, o che lo vogliono rinchiudere in un ospedale psichiatrico. La canzone si ricollega metaforicamente alla caccia alle streghe per raccontare la paranoia di chi sa di essere seguito, e possibilmente perseguitato da una qualche autorità.

Durante il dibattito presidenziale dello scorso 10 Settembre tra Kamala Harris e Donald Trump quest’ultimo ha dichiarato che a Springfield, cittadina dell’ Ohio, gli immigrati stanno prendendo il controllo della città. Ha inoltre affermato testualmente: “They’re eating the dogs. They’re eating the cats. They’re eating the pets of the people that live there”.
Il suo sodale, il candidato repubblicano alla vicepresidenza J.D. Vance, si è affrettato a precisare poco dopo che è possibile che le voci sui migranti haitiani che rapiscono animali domestici si rivelino false.
La strabiliante minchiata del candidato alla presidenza degli Stati Uniti è diventata oggetto di una parodia virale da un paio di giorni realizzata da The Kiffness ( nello slang sudafricano vuol dire fantastico, figo)

A Wolf at the Door

A Wolf at the Door
(2003)
La canzone che chiude l'album Hail To The Thief

Il lupo alla porta è simbolicamente il creditore che viene a riscuotere quel che gli è dovuto, tenerlo lontano dalla porta vuol dire riuscire a sbarcare il lunario evitando grandi rischi finanziari. Ma in questa bellissima canzone (che andrà tradotta e commentata accuratamente) il lupo è il sistema capitalista e il testo può essere letto come una potente favola anticapitalista.

Il lupo possono essere le banche, pronte a concedere crediti senza limiti, per poi portarti via tutto quando subentra la crisi e le cose cominciano ad andare male, o i governi che tagliano la spesa sociale per poi regalare miliardi al sistema bancario quando rischia il fallimento. Perché tanto ci saranno sempre le classi subalterne a pagare il prezzo della crisi scatenata dalle classi dominanti nella guerra dei centomila anni.

Il progetto MKULTRA (o MK-ULTRA) era il nome in codice dato a un programma illegale e clandestino di esperimenti sugli esseri umani studiato e messo in atto dalla CIA durante gli anni cinquanta e sessanta del XX secolo, che aveva come scopo quello di identificare droghe e procedure che, integrando altre tecniche di tortura, facevano confessare le persone che vi venivano sottoposte.

Organizzato tramite la Divisione Scientifica dell'Intelligence, il progetto fu coordinato con la Divisione Operazioni Speciali dei cosiddetti Chemical Corps dell'esercito degli Stati Uniti.

Il programma ebbe inizio nei primi anni cinquanta e fu approvato ufficialmente nel 1953, fino a essere ridimensionato nel 1964 e ridotto ulteriormente nel 1967, ma interrotto ufficialmente soltanto nel 1973. Il programma condusse molte attività illegali; in particolare, furono... (continuer)

After the Flood

After the Flood
(1970)
Album: The Least We Can Do Is Wave To Each Other


The final song from Van der Graaf Generator’s early 1970 album The Least We Can Do Is Wave to Each Other. This the only track on the album to use a 16-track machine, and utilized distortion and tremolo boxes for Peter Hammil’s voice on the epic ‘total annihilation’ vocals. The latter has been praised as one of prog’s scariest moments. It is the longest song on the album, and is a science fiction number that showed the fallout of an apocalyptic flood, and featured a twelve tone figure arranged by David Jackson, the band’s saxophonist, and a variety of different mood and style changes.

The lyrics partially quoted Albert Einstein expressing his concern about the arms race between the US and the Soviet Union that led to the Cold War.

This is an an English rewriting rather than a version or a translation of Solomos’ song poem. “Rewriting” means that I’ve written all this as a personal English poem for Aikaterini Mavrogordatou, and -maybe- also for my salad days. This can be done only when a language is felt as a language of heart. Though in different ways, both Greek and English are languages deeply rooted in my heart. I don’t like English as a “world language” or a fake communication tool ready for massacre and nonexistence. I love English as a nude instrument of memory and history. [RV]

Pagine Esteri, 4 settembre 2024 (di Patrizia Zanelli) – Durante l’operazione Margine protettivo, condotta da Israele contro Hamas a Gaza dall’8 luglio al 26 agosto 2014, Rafeef Ziadah ha scritto la poesia “If My Words”, inclusa nell’album We Teach Life (2015), nonché un articolo pubblicato su The Guardian, in cui dice: “Ho iniziato la mia vita sotto l’assedio e i bombardamenti israeliani. Fin da bambina ricordo che, mentre l’odore dei proiettili di artiglieria riempiva l’aria di Beirut nel 1982 e correvamo per salvarci, io mi chiedevo: “Perché il mondo permette che ciò accada?” Sul volto dei bambini di Gaza oggi vedo un’altra generazione nata con lo stesso trauma e con la stessa domanda.

We Teach Life Sir
Nel prologo di questa poesia, l’autrice spiega infatti di averla
scritta nel 2009, perché, mentre Gaza era sotto i bombardamenti israeliani, e lei lavorava come portavoce dell’ufficio stampa di una coalizione pacifista, un giornalista che la voleva intervistare, le aveva chiesto: “Non pensa che tutto andrebbe bene se smetteste di insegnare ai vostri figli a odiare?”. È una domanda tipica dell’antipalestinismo, una delle tante che vengono rivolte a ogni palestinese, colpevole soltanto della sua identità culturale; un classico caso dell’oppressore che colpevolizza le vittime della sua oppressione. Ziadah ha risposto a quel giornalista scrivendo questo testo, in cui lei ripete per ben undici volte il termine soundbite, coniato dai media statunitensi negli anni 1970, per indicare una “breve frase incisiva” o “battuta ad effetto”, estratta da un discorso pronunciato da una figura politica a...

There Should Be Sky Above You

Album: Flare


THERE SHOULD BE SKY ABOVE YOU is the last track I worked on among those featured in FLARE. It was born with the intention of offering a word of comfort to those who suffer and live their lives managing a pain. A sense of oppression arises in a context in which one is not serene and free to think lightly and confidently about one’s own future and self-determination.

Living overwhelmed by heavy clouds makes us powerless as a Queen in exile from her own kingdom. No one deserves to experience and suffer violence.

In making the video of THERE SHOULD BE SKY ABOVE YOU, it seemed natural to devote space to the denunciation of what is happening in Gaza right now. I find it impossible to remain indifferent to such a horror. In a context where missiles and bombs are raining down on civilians, it is inevitable to think that there should be only the sky over those heads, nothing... (continuer)

‘The Glory Demon’ is a phrase taken from Brewer’s Dictionary of Phrase and Fable. It means war. It’s essentially an anti-war song, about how we never seem to learn and how it just goes on and on (life and afterlife) endlessly repeating itself. I thought also about how the phrase might fit the hubris, megalomania and idiocy of certain politicians.” — Karen Matheson

Comfort Food (Kiran Music, 2024)

This song is a musical response to cultural intolerance. My words are aimed at reminding us that we all bleed the same red; our tears taste of the same salt – we’re the root of one tree – we’re all part of the same human species, but can we call ourselves humans when we lack humanity? The impetus for this song is the rise of Hindu fundamentalism. This movement marginalizes Muslims and other ethnic minorities and is an ideology embodied in the political party which currently governs India. This wave of religious hatred has also spread in the Indian Diaspora, and many who are against it do not speak out for fear of repercussions. Social preservation dictates that they stay quiet even in the face of injustice to others. The wound I refer to in these lyrics is the partition of India and Pakistan – once a united people – it is the story of the loss of brotherhood.... (continuer)

Comfort Food (Kiran Music, 2024)

This song is about feeling overwhelmed with the current state of political polarization in the world. Nationalist politicians around the globe are targeting ethnic minorities and immigrants. Most of us have strong opinions on these issues and it’s sadly often impossible to talk with those we disagree with without the conversations turning into yelling matches. I’ve found it very hard to control my anger when talking to family members about the cons of fundamentalism and tribal thinking. So instead of talking, I‘m singing my opinion – this song reminds us that we are all from one root; we all bleed the same shade of red.

English translation from the Album booklet.

“Tera Jugg” parla del senso di sopraffazione dovuto allo stato attuale di polarizzazione politica nel mondo dove i politici nazionalisti stanno prendendo di mira minoranze etniche e immigrati.

The Day We Drank the Nazis Out to Town

The Day We Drank  the Nazis Out to Town
2022

Residents in an eastern German town found a novel way of protesting against neo-Nazis – by buying up beer.
Their action at the weekend was aimed at fans attending a far-right German rock festival called Schild und Schwert Festival (Shield and Sword or SS) in Ostritz, a small town in Saxony on the German-Polish border.
Police had seized 4,400 liters of beer from festival-goers after an alcohol ban was imposed by a court near Dresden, which ruled the event had an "aggressive character". The court felt there was a risk that alcohol could make violence more likely.

But locals suspected that fans heading to the festival – known for "Rechtsrock" music, which promotes white nationalism – would head to the supermarket instead to stock up on alcohol.
So they reacted by buying up more than 200 crates of beer, leaving the festival attendees thirsty.
An Ostritz activist, Georg Salditt, told... (continuer)

Standing Between Two Walls

Standing Between Two Walls
Muri, confini, appartenenze e già che ci siamo: Ius soli

For millions of Russians, the invasion of Ukraine presented something of an identity crisis. Previously only identifying with one place for their entire lives while seeing themselves as part of a wider world, being Russian is now something to be ashamed of. While the Russian state should certainly be condemned, it’s often blameless individuals who feel the brunt of negative associations and blanket government actions. For example, the Russian-Tajik superstar and activist Manizha, who represented Russia at Eurovision 2021, finds herself stuck between the country that welcomed her as a child during the Tajik civil war and being currently hindered in her work for human rights. Standing Between Two Walls, directed by DN Alum Director Dasha Guschina, captures this paradox excellently, using movements pulled from everyday life to capture... (continuer)
