The R
''The'' () is a grammatical article in English, denoting persons or things already mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers. It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words. It is derived from gendered articles in Old English which combined in Middle English and now has a single form used with pronouns of any gender. The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter. This is different from many other languages, which have different forms of the definite article for different genders or numbers. Pronunciation In most dialects, "the" is pronounced as (with the voiced dental fricative followed by a schwa) when followed by a consonant sound, and as (homophone of pronoun ''thee'') when followed by ...

The Big Money
"The Big Money" is a song by Canadian rock band Rush, originally released on their 1985 album ''Power Windows''. It peaked at #45 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 and #4 on the Mainstream Rock chart, and has been included on several compilation albums, such as ''Retrospective II '' and '' The Spirit of Radio: Greatest Hits 1974-1987''. The lyrics, written by drummer Neil Peart, reflect on the power of "big money" and the sheer magnitude of trade in the modern global economy, particularly during the 1980s. When asked about the idea that the song's lyrics were inspired by a John Dos Passos book of the same name, Peart replied, "I am a big fan of Dos Passos' stylistic ability, his poetic approach to prose, but the ideas presented in the songs are quite different from those which he exemplified." Peart also stated that "the only connection is in the titles". ''Cash Box'' said that it has "a huge production sound, a dynamic arrangement and a techno-rock feel." Music video The video for t ...

Shrek (album)
''Shrek'' is a 1994 album by Marc Ribot recorded and released by the Japanese Avant label in 1994. Recording The album was recorded in New York City at Low Blood Studios. Ribot stated "I made ''Shrek'', which was finally a hit. It was the most purely compositional record I had made. It’s quasi-unlistenable. ... I never knew how many ''Shrek'' fans there were till I did Cubanos. They’re coming out of the woodwork.". Reception AllMusic awarded the album 3 stars with reviewer Sean Cooper stating, "The group's debut shifts restlessly among animated jazz, rock, punk, and warped blues themes, filling the inevitable cracks with instrumental textures, minimal vignettes, and formless noise, similar in some respects to John Zorn's Naked City (though with considerably more focus...hell, with focus period!). The group is joined on three tracks by sampler collage artist David Shea. ".Cooper, S.Allmusic Reviewaccessed , 2011 In JazzTimes Tom Terrell said "''Shrek'' is firmly in the avant ...

Atomizer (album)
''Atomizer'' is the debut full-length album by American punk rock group Big Black released in 1986. Singles One song from the album, "Big Money", was released as a B-side to the "Il Duce" single prior to the release of ''Atomizer''. Homestead Records also issued "Big Money" and "Il Duce" the A-side of a 12" record with three live songs on the B-side (including the live version of "Cables" that would appear on ''Atomizer'') with the agreement that the 12" be used for promotional purposes only.

When they did, Big Black left Homestead and signed to Touch and Go Records. Follow-up and CD releases In the year after ''Atomizer's'' release, Big Black recorded their 4-song '' Headache EP'' and released it with a sticker that bore the words, "Warning! Not as good as ''Atomizer'', so don't get your hopes up, cheese." The same sticker also appe ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
