Evolution of Music
by Duane Bryant
Music is like the evolution of man which began
with a monkey and as time moved forward, the monkey evolved into a human.
That’s how music is supposed to be, no matter if it’s Jazz, R & B, Hip Hop,
Doo Wop, or Rock & Roll.
For instance: John Coltrane and Prince. The
more spiritual they became, the more they grew and the more their music
evolved. Some musicians and fans would say these guys lost their minds but,
they didn’t. They evolved in their spirit and music. They grew. Some fans
and musicians expect them to play the same music the same way as they did
when they emerged.
Some people are still in the pre-k mindset
when it comes to music. They need people like Quincy Jones, Prince, Chick
Corea and Santana to help them to grow and evolve from pre-school to a
graduate school of music. |
