The Chylds
The Chylds were a popular northern Ohio rock band from 1964-68. History The band started life as The Echoes, but after they signed with Warner, their manager Nick Boldi wanted them to change the name to "The Wild Childs." This didn't suit the band members, so they settled on The Chylds, thinking this would sound British and pick up some of the popularity surrounding such bands as the Beatles. Band members included John Berecek on lead guitar and vocals, Al Twiss on bass guitar and vocals, Tim Hogan on rhythm guitar, keyboards and vocals and Joe Vitale, on drums and vocals. Vitale started his professional music career with The Chylds in 1965 at age 17, and sang vocals on their hit single "I Want More (Lovin’)." The band recorded a number of 45 singles at Akron Recording Studios in Akron, Ohio, at Cleveland Recording and at Gateway in Pittsburgh. The Chylds opened for bands including The Beach Boys and Mitch Ryder, and appeared on the TV show ''Upbeat.'' Their single, "Psyched ...

Rock Music
Rock music is a broad genre of popular music that originated as " rock and roll" in the United States in the late 1940s and early 1950s, developing into a range of different styles in the mid-1960s and later, particularly in the United States and United Kingdom.W. E. Studwell and D. F. Lonergan, ''The Classic Rock and Roll Reader: Rock Music from its Beginnings to the mid-1970s'' (Abingdon: Routledge, 1999), p.xi It has its roots in 1940s and 1950s rock and roll, a style that drew directly from the blues and rhythm and blues genres of African-American music and from country music.

Pop Music
Pop music is a genre of popular music that originated in its modern form during the mid-1950s in the United States and the United Kingdom. The terms ''popular music'' and ''pop music'' are often used interchangeably, although the former describes all music that is popular and includes many disparate styles. During the 1950s and 1960s, pop music encompassed rock and roll and the youth-oriented styles it influenced. ''Rock'' and ''pop'' music remained roughly synonymous until the late 1960s, after which ''pop'' became associated with music that was more commercial, ephemeral, and accessible. Although much of the music that appears on record charts is considered to be pop music, the genre is distinguished from chart music. Identifying factors usually include repeated choruses and hooks, short to medium-length songs written in a basic format (often the verse-chorus structure), and rhythms or tempos that can be easily danced to. Much pop music also borrows elements from other styles ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
