Description du livre Softcover. Etat : new. From Buddy Holly and the Crickets to the Flatlanders Terry Allen and Natalie Maines Lubbock Texas has produced songwriters musicians and artists as prolifically as cotton conservatives and windstorms While nobody questions where the conservatives come from in a city that a recent nonpartisan study ranked as Americas second most conservative many people wonder why Lubbock is such fertile ground for creative spirits who want to expand the boundaries of thought in music and art Is it just that theres nothing else to do as some have suggested or is there something in the character of Lubbock that encourages creativity as much as conservatismIn this book Christopher Oglesby interviews twentyfive musicians and artists with ties to Lubbock to discover what it is about this community and West Texas in general that feeds the creative spirit Their answers are revealing Some speak of the need to rebel against conventional attitudes that threaten to limit their horizons Others such as Joe Ely praise the freedom of mind they find on the wide open plains There is this empty desolation that I could fill if I picked up a pen and wrote or picked up a guitar and played he says Still others express skepticism about how much Lubbock as a place contributes to the success of its musicians Jimmie Dale Gilmore says I think there is a large measure of this Lubbock phenomenon that is just luck and that is the part that you cannot explainAs a whole the interviews create a portrait not only of Lubbocks musicians and artists but also of the musical community that has sustained them including venues such as the legendary Cotton Club and the original Stubbs Barbecue This kaleidoscopic portrait of the West Texas music scene gets to the heart of what it takes to create art in an isolated often inhospitable environment As Oglesby says Necessity is the mother of creation Lubbock needed beauty poetry humor and it needed to get up and shake its communal ass a bit or go mad from loneliness and boredom so Lubbock created the amazing likes of Jimmie Dale Gilmore Butch Hancock Terry Allen and Joe Ely.
