In his Making America More Musical Through the Phonograph, Mark Katz discussed the significance of the phonograph in transforming America into a more musical nation. Towards the end of the 19th century and at the beginning of the 20th century, classical musical was viewed as a powerful cultural and moral force. However, many Americans still lacked access to this "good music", which was mainly accessible through some wealth and living in the cities. The invention of the phonograph, however, was able to bridge the gap between the poorer, rural territories, and allow music to travel to places that beforehand were out of the question. Through the characteristics of portability, affordability, and repeatability, the phonograph took the center stage

Recording for Strawberry Fields began on November 24, 1966 it was initially laid out to be played as a gentle acoustic guitar ballad. However John wasn't fully happy with its arrangement. Therefore he asked George Martin to come up with a new arrangement that featured brass and strings that would be followed by heavy percussion along with the orchestra being added later throughout the song, but still unhappy with both versions.

This was thought to be impossible at first, but after experimenting with a variable-speed tape machine, he found a way to slow down (take 26) to the key of A major so that he could fuse it with (Take

The 1920's should be remembered as a cynical but carefree time of jazz, gin, and socioeconomic prosperity. Modern cultural norms were drastically affected during this period. Numerous technological innovations evolved, and mass production of technology plagued the United States, ultimately benefiting, and negatively affecting economic, social, and political gestures. Whereas the telephone and radio had already been invented, they became of popular use during the early 20th century, both of which were used to positively alter the entertainment industry. Phonograph technology saw rise during this period, which allowed musicians (such as jazz instrumentalists, whose study is primarily based on improvisation techniques) to produce phonograph recordings

Music it’s here, it’s there, it’s everywhere, and it’s been here for millions of years. From the cave men beating sticks on rocks, to boys performing for their king, to where people just listen to music to have a good time and goof off. But music comes in eras where a certain style, taste, and artists rule the charts. The 1970’s was the end of a music era and the start of one that still holds true today. The fashion, the music, and the politics.

Recording music has certainly had a profound effect on music and our culture, and with that comes both negatives and positives. As far as negatives go, recording allows for musicians and labels to apply strict music right to their songs, becoming more of a business and changing the very nature of the music. Basically, it becomes more money oriented and effects the quality of the music. Now their are many positives as well, contrary to me saying it can diminish the quality of music, it can also make music much more complex and help use better understand how music work. Recording allows for the artist to listen to his own music and make changes where he thinks fit best.
