Judas Priest - Killing Machine

Judas Priest - Killing Machine

English | PDF | 162 pages | 5.4 MB

Judas Priest are easily one of the greatest metal bands of all time. These guys were a huge influence on the new wave of british heavy metal and metal in general. They have many great albums but my favorite is this one. Released in '78, this was right before they hit it big.

Overall, I feel this is their best combination of great metal and pop sensibility. (Although British Steel is insanely close behind) You've got great rockers like "Delivering The Goods" and "Killing Machine," but you've also got great pop injected tunes like "Evening Star" and "Take On The World". The latter is so damn catchy it's unbelieveable. My dad used to play the "Hellbent" cassette in the truck when I was younger and I always remember loving this song. Judas Priest also do a great ballad on this record too, in "Before The Dawn" along with a great Fleetwood Mac cover, "The Green Manalishi."

Judas Priest show great variety in thier songwriting along with an amazing pop sensibility (which would come to fruition on British Steel, Screaming, and Turbo) which is why this is one of my favorite albums of all time. I loved it when I was 5 and I still love it now. A big thanks to my dad for playing this (along with other great music) to death when I was little. Also, a big thanks to him for bringing me to see Priest live on thier 30th anniversay tour of British Steel. It was a great show and Halford can still scream like no other.

Edward Aldwell, Carl Schachter and Allen Cadwallader, "Harmony and Voice Leading"

2011 | 736 pages | PDF | 21,1 MB

A clear and comprehensive volume spanning the entire theory course, the fourth edition of Harmony and Voice Leading begins with coverage of basic concepts of theory and harmony and moves into coverage of advanced dissonance and chromaticism. It emphasizes the linear aspects of music as much as the harmonic, and introduces large-scale progressions--linear and harmonic--at an early stage. The fourth edition now includes a chapter introducing species counterpoint and integrates that material into the rest of the text. A new premium web site for students will provide interactive, guided exercises for new material covered in each unit. The instructor's companion site will include "Guidelines for Instructors," a new instructor's manual written by the authors.
