Reggae: The Beating Heart of Popular Music

No other country has had such an influence on modern popular music as Jamaica. Bob Marley is a global symbol of Jamaican reggae music, but this tiny island of barely 3 million inhabitants has produced many other great artists and has pioneered new sounds and recording techniques. Reggae has directly influenced genres like Disco, Hip Hop, and Electronic Dance Music (EDM), while many popular artists, including the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and Stevie Wonder, have recorded their own reggae songs. Through the use of music, video, and photographs from this treasured island, Dr. John F. Lyons traces the history and impact of reggae music.

Can you imagine a world without “Imagine?” The 10-year period from the Beatles break up in 1970 to Lennon’s tragic murder in 1980 was a fascinating period of successes and failures for the ex-Beatle. Using audio and visual content we’ll explore the music from “Imagine” to “(Just Like) Starting Over”, his controversial immigration struggle, his wild “lost weekend” and the quiet househusband years culminating with the release of his final album Double Fantasy.

Hosted by College of DuPage professor, Gary Wenstrup.
