American music-59
1. Alternative American Music
One of the biggest imports from the U.S. is American music which goes over big
time all around the globe and has been that way for most of the last hundred
years or so. Jazz was invented in the U.S. and is a distinctly American art
form, though it has travelled well all over the planet and has influenced almost
every type of music conceivable. Louis Armstrong travelled the globe promoting
American music and jazz in particular and it continues to this day with the
great alternative American music acts that are dominating worldwide.
Green Day originated in Berkeley, California and over the span of their almost
thirty year career they have sold tens of millions of CDs and had multiple
international hits. Their brand of purely American music inspired by punk and
alternative rock is a unique invention that has been embraced by audiences of
all ages. They are truly one of the few bands in history that have crossed over
successfully and transcended artificial labels and media imposed boundaries.
Their latest album was “21st Century Breakdown“ and it was number one on the
Billboard charts from the moment it came out and featured the number one hit
single “21 Guns“.
Another great band playing American music is also coincidentally from Berkeley,
California, the same hometown as Green Day, and this band is the great Counting
Crows. Although there popularity has diminished a bit over the years, they have
a tremendous international following and can pack them in all over the world.
Their first big hit was “Mr. Jones“ which was very derivative of the great Van
Morrison, but more modern. They went on to score many huge hits including “Big
Yellow Taxi“ and “Long December“, among others.
The Red Hot Chili Peppers have gradually risen in the ranks to become perhaps
the number one rock band in the world, if such a thing can be measured. The
group is from Los Angeles and they have scored some huge hits with their blend
of American music and contemporary modern rock and rap. Songs like
“Californication“, “Dani California“, “My Friends“, “Aeroplane“, “Otherside“,
“Scar Tissue“, and many, many more have won them fans across many continents.
Led by singer Anthony Kiedis and bassist Flea, the group is stronger than ever
and every music fan awaits their next big album.
Van Halen has sold millions and millions of albums all over the world, even
though they changed singers in mid-stream, substituting the brilliant energy of
David Lee Roth for the piercing vocal gymnastics of Sammy Hagar. Whoever the
singer is, Van Halen can fill up stadiums wherever they play their rock tinged
American music, no matter what country they happen to be in. When they are not
playing you can find them relaxing in Cabo San Lucas in Baja California, Mexico.
American music, especially American rock music, will never be equaled across the
world when it comes to popularity. Foreign bands try to emulate their moves and
riffs. Foreign music fans wait in long lines to get their hands on new releases.
