1 Answer some interview questions
Use the text on p 4-6 in the textbook to help you answer these interview questions. Then act out the interview with a friend. You don't have to say exactly what is in the text. X: Hello! I heard you’re a pop expert. Could I ask you a couple of questions, please? You (the pop expert): Sure, just shoot man. X: Why is 28th of April 1956 so important in the history of pop, would you say? You: X: Who was that Presley really? You: X: Was he influenced by jazz? Was Presley really important? Tell me about the Beach Boys. What exactly was Pet Sounds? I’ve heard the word Motown. What was that? Was Bob Dylan English? Tell me more about him, please. Were there any famous British bands? Did the Beatles influence just music? What was different in the Rolling Stones’ image? Tell me something about pop in the 70s. What was typical of punk? Who dominated the 80s? Can you give me the names of some of their songs? What new things did they bring into the pop business? Did they make any money? What dominated the 90s? What kind of music is that? Why are the words hard? What was grunge? What do you think will happen in the 2010s? Thanks a lot. Do I know everything about pop now? You: No way! There are lots of musical trends, and more important, thousands of great songs for you to discover in the future. Listen, learn, and rock on!
