Advertising
Advertising is the practice and techniques employed to bring attention to a product or service. Advertising aims to put a product or service in the spotlight in hopes of drawing it attention from consumers. It is typically used to promote a specific good or service, but there are wide range of uses, the most common being the commercial advertisement. Commercial advertisements often seek to generate increased consumption of their products or services through "branding", which associates a product name or image with certain qualities in the minds of consumers. On the other hand, ads that intend to elicit an immediate sale are known as direct-response advertising. Non-commercial entities that advertise more than consumer products or services include political parties, interest groups, religious organizations and governmental agencies. Non-profit organizations may use free modes of persuasion, such as a public service announcement. Advertising may also help to reassure employees ...

Crazy Life (Gino Vannelli Album)
''Crazy Life'', originally released in 1973 by A&M Records, is the debut album by Canadian singer and songwriter Gino Vannelli. Six years before ''Crazy Life'' came out, Vannelli had gained a recording contract with RCA Canada under the name Van Elli because his real name was viewed "too Italian". However, Van Elli would release only one single under that moniker, 1970's "Gina Bold", before being dropped. With brothers Joe and Ross, Vannelli traveled to New York, back to Montreal, and again to Los Angeles where he was discovered by producer Herb Alpert and gave him a demo tape. Alpert signed Vannelli on the condition he produce the singer’s first album, which Vannelli agreed to. Before signing with A&M, Vannelli had written several albums' worth of songs, including most of the material on '' Powerful People'' and ''Storm at Sunup'' – indeed the title track was the only song from Vannelli's Alpert demo to appear on ''Crazy Life''. Even before its release, ''Crazy Life'' gaine ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Powerful People
''Powerful People'' is the second studio album of Canadian singer Gino Vannelli. The album was released in 1974, and was produced by Gino and his brother Joe Vannelli. Herb Alpert (who produced Vannelli's first album) is credited as associate producer. After his debut ''Crazy Life'' had failed to chart due to poor record company promotion, Vannelli assembled a band to record his second album. He and brother Joe had played all the instruments on ''Crazy Life,'' but ''Powerful People'' is characterized by Joe Vannelli's first experiments with synthesizers and the use of session musicians. The funky "People Gotta Move" was Vannelli's first hit in the United States, when disco music was gaining popularity. The song reached #22 on Billboard Hot 100 and #21 in Canada. "Powerful People" reached #34 in Canada. The last track, "Poor Happy Jimmy", is a tribute to American singer Jim Croce, who died in an airplane accident a year earlier.

Funk
Funk is a music genre that originated in African Americans, African American communities in the mid-1960s when musicians created a rhythmic, danceable new form of music through a mixture of various music genres that were popular among African Americans in the mid-20th century. It de-emphasizes melody and chord progressions and focuses on a strong rhythmic groove (music), groove of a bassline played by an electric bassist and a drum part played by a drum kit, percussionist, often at slower tempos than other popular music. Funk typically consists of a complex percussive groove with Rhythm section, rhythm instruments playing interlocking grooves that create a "hypnotic" and "danceable" feel. Funk uses the same richly colored extended chords found in bebop jazz, such as minor chords with added sevenths and elevenths, or dominant seventh chords with altered ninths and thirteenths. Funk originated in the mid-1960s, with James Brown's development of a signature groove that emphasized t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
