Nashville, TN - based Gibson Brands, Inc. on Tuesday May 1, 2018, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, (in Delaware) and announced a restructuring deal.
The petition, filed on Tuesday, notes that the company currently has up to $500 million in debt and will focus its operations on its musical instruments business, "unburdened by the challenges experienced by [the company's] separate, primarily non-U.S., consumer electronics business."
Gibson's current properties also include Baldwin Piano, Gibson Pro Audio and Wurlitzer, a company once famous for its organs but whose brand name Gibson now uses only for manufacturing jukeboxes.
As part of its debt restructuring, the company will close down and liquidate its unprofitable Gibson Innovations division, which sells audio equipment outside of the U.S. and has been the source of much of the company's financial troubles.
That business includes the brands KRK, Cerwin Vega and Stanton, whose lines include studio monitors, headphones and turntables. Gibson also currently holds a majority equity interest in TEAC, a Japanese home audio electronics company.
Gibson's plan includes giving some of the company's lenders equity ownership, while its lenders have agreed to an operating loan of up to $135 million to maintain existing operations. The restructuring will allow Gibson to focus on its most profitable ventures, such as musical instruments.
No changes will be made to its guitar manufacturing business, and all Gibson and Epiphone branded guitars are expected to continue in production uninterrupted.
It operates guitar-making factories in Nashville and Memphis, TN, and Bozeman, MT.

Its Music To My Ears
By: Pat Lincoln
My favorite topic about music is, what is and what isn't "Music". Everyone seems to have the answer to this.
With so many classifications of musical styles, where do we even start? Do we talk about music in the style such as Country or Reggea, or do we talk about the individual talent and craftship of the musicians?
Do we define music by its scene, or like Andy Boretto's grunge look, by some bay area high school kids bringing the Grateful Dead's parking lot to everyone?
Instruments are easy, we can list them and say this person is great and so on. Most can agree that one is really good at playing their respective instrument.
Guitar players such as the shredding of Eddie Van Halen, the psychedelic sound of Jerry Garcia and Jimi Hendrix, to the Flamico style of Paco de Lucia or San Francisco's funk thrash scene Elton Ridge always come to mind in greatness.
Percussionist such as Benny Goodman the double entendre of Mickey Hart & Bill Kreutzman, the double bass drums of Alex Van Halen, to classical sound of John Bonham or Eric Carr are all considered good.
I am not quite sure what makes a great bass player, such as Phil Lesh and Gene Simmons. What about double bass player Gary Karr?
However singers and vocalists is not so clear. How do we decide who is a great vocalist?
Does it have to be produced by Ted Templeman and mastered by George Horn or George Marino?

Record Album
By: Pat Lincoln
What makes a great full length album? We believe that it basically has to be solid all the way through with music and in which every song rocks.
Below is what we have come up with as our Top 3 LP's as of right now, however we do expect these selections to change or increase to a Top 5 or maybe even more.
Some music experts around the world, would not consider all of these choices "RnR", but who's asking them?

There are so many great records, the next are difficult to rank. Receiving the "honorable mention" distinction, is 1984 and Sports. While 1984 narrowly lost out on a top spot, Eddie Van Halen does appear on Thriller.

Ragtime - A precursor to Jazz, is an American musical style which enjoyed its peak popularity between 1895 and 1918.
Mostly piano based, its cardinal trait is its syncopated or "ragged" rhythm, composed chiefly for an audiance not for dancing.
The songs tend to cycle through sophisticated key changes and chord progressions. However, unlike jazz, ragtime does not call for improvisation over these chord progressions.
The "Big 3" composers of classical Ragtime are, Scott Joplin, James Scott, and Joseph Lamb.

Jazz originated in New Orleans, in in the early 1900s. Jazz began, combining military style brass-band marches, biguine (dance music), ragtime, blues and improvisation. Performers took turns playing melodies and improvising countermelodies
Big Band developed throughout the early 1910s and dominated through 1940s. Big bands started as accompaniment for dancing with written compositions and arrangements. Ensemble usually consists of 10 or more musicians with 4 sections, and a greater role to bandleaders, arrangers, and sections.
Swing evolved during the 1930s.The danceable style featured vibrant bandleaders and soloists who would improvise on the melody over the arrangement, where the emphasis is on the off–beat or weaker pulse in the music
    
Band Leaders and Musicians of these eras include Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, Benny Goodman, Tommy Dorsey, Count Basie, Billy May, Cab Calloway, Jimmy Dorsey, Harry James, Louis Jordan, Artie Shaw, Glenn Miller, Woody Herman, Hoagy Carmichael, and Henry Mancini.
    
Notable Singers from these eras include Mildred Bailey, Billie Holiday, Bing Crosby, Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra.
Bebop style performers began to shift jazz from danceable popular music in the early 1940’s, towards smaller groups with minimal arrangements, faster tempos, intricate melodies, asymmetrical phrasing, and tempo-keeping rhythm sections. Influential bebop musicians included Thelonious Monk, Dizzy Gillespie, Clifford Brown, Max Roach, John Coltrane, and Miles Davis.

Rock n' Roll
By: Pat Lincoln
Where does this start? Did it start with blues guitarist Robert Johnson who totally rocks and is covered all the time, or is it Elvis who said Rn'R is just blues and gospel music, or Chuck Berry? It seems that as long as it rocks, it is Rock n' Roll.

Recording 13 studio albums, including over 1,400 concert appearances internationally over a 4-year period, they brought in a new era of music, change and cultural impact.
The Beatles have received just about every award possible including; Grammy, Academy and Ivor Novella, numerous #1 hit songs on all lists and charts, estimated sales of over 800 million physical and digital albums worldwide, Diamond and Multi-Platinum albums, #1 albums on the British charts and sold more singles in the UK than any other Band. In Addition, they founded their own record label, Apple Records, in 1968.
 
The Beatles final public performance was their “Let It Be rooftop concert” on Thursday January 30, 1969. The concert from the roof of the headquarters of the band's record company (Apple Corps) was a 42-minute set, playing 9 takes of 5 songs. Footage from the performance was used in the 1970 documentary film - Let It Be.
On April 10, 1970, Paul McCartney announced he was leaving the group. The bandmates were able to work towards a settlement with the document, known as "The Beatles Agreement", signed by the 4 in December 1974. Because of legal reasons, the formal dissolution of the partnership took place on January 9, 1975.
After their break-up in 1970, they have each enjoyed success as solo artists. As of 2018, McCartney and Starr remain musically active.
"The Fab Four" are widely regarded as the foremost and most influential music band in history for incorporating several musical styles, classical elements and unconventional recording techniques in new and innovative ways. The band was integral to music's evolution into an art form and to the development of the 1960’s “counterculture”
In 1965, Queen Elizabeth II appointed Lennon, McCartney, Harrison and Starr - Members of the Order of the British Empire (MBE – Knighthood).

Blame it on Jerry!
By: Andrew Reinhold
Since the 1960's, these musicians from San Francisco have had several reincarnations, with many playing in the band.
Known for their live music, they produced several studio and Live albums - which continue to be released.
From the Greek Theatre to the great Pryramids in Egypt, the Dead has played and was on tour almost year round for decades.
Their a Band Behind Description
Over 4 decades, they have released many Albums and established their own record labels, Grateful Dead Records and Round Records. In addition, there are several live recorded "tapes" in circulation.
What kind of band set up spaces for recording, "Taper" sections, so we Deadheads could record their shows. As Jerry said "Once we're done [with a show] they can have it."
Meanwhile, back in the Bay Area during the mid 1980's, a bunch of "high" school kids from the Foothills kept the Dead alive.

The Mighty Led Zeppelin
Led Zeppelin was founded in 1968 by guitarist Jimmy Page in London with singer Robert Plant, bassist and keyboardist John Paul Jones, and drummer John Bonham.
So, the question is, are they really the greatest band? Having Jimmy Page and Robert Plant, how can they not be one of the best in history?
Various sources estimate the group's record sales at 200 to over 300 million units worldwide and a RIAA-certified sales of 111.5 million units, making them the second-best-selling band in the US.
|
Making more than 10 solid albums, over 80 recorded tracks, with each of their 9 studio albums placing in the top 10 of the “Billboard album chart” and 6 reaching the #1 spot, countless hit songs such as "Stairway to Heaven", to John Bonham’s drum track from "When the Levee Breaks" – (which is sampled regularly) Page's signature double neck guitar, using a cello bow, to their own record label - Swan Song, sold out stadiums and arenas, this band has done it all.
Led Zeppelin is considered 1 of the most successful, innovative, and influential rock groups in history. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995.

Reggae is a style which originated in the islands of Jamaica.
From the 1950’s, Reggaes origins developed from the jazz field, known as ‘Rudie Blues’, on to the faster paced ‘Ska’, to the early 1960’s slower tempo - ‘Rock Steady’ and then evolved into Reggae in the late 1960s.
Stylistically, Reggae incorporates some of the musical elements of American rhythm and blues, jazz, mento (Jamaican folk music), calypso, and traditional African folk rhythms.
One of the most easily recognizable elements is offbeat rhythms; staccato guitar chords on the off-beats of the measures led by the drums and bass. The bass guitar often plays the dominant role as a percussion instrument with a thick and heavy sound is, equalized so the upper frequencies are removed and the lower are emphasized.
Call and response can be found throughout Reggae music and is noted for its tradition of social criticism and religion, although many Reggae songs discuss lighter, more personal subjects, such as love and socializing in its lyrics.
The 1968 single "Do the Reggay" by Toots and the Maytals, is known as the first popular song to use the word "Reggae".

The Rap Game
By: Chris Attuck
During the late 1970's and early 1980's rappers began to become more mainstream. We generally give the East Coast the rap credit, because of the successes like The Sugerhill Gang's "Rapper's Delight" (1980) Grandmaster Flash’s “Message” and Run DMC who definitely kept rap alive, Def Jam records, and all of the others which will be named later.
On the West Coast., there was up and comers such as Too Short in the early 1980's and Ice-T. You just get more on his records, and he didn't make any weakass dance music either. 2 Live Crew upping the game, the great Northwest's Sir Mix-A-Lot, and NWA and all their posse bringing in a new era.
