annum it , ' WHEEL lwi1,f'li . , 3 V' txt, E A E at salma .Lil oes it bother you to see someone wearing headphones because you have no idea what type of music they are jamming to? There are many types of music to choose from, but most NHS tudents prefer that good ole rock n roll. But there is more to wusic than loud, distorted guitar riffs and lyrics depicting the nguish of love. ln fact, many students desired to expand their musical pref- rences this year. Some tuned their dial to T-95, while the more nturesome turned to a different style of music. Stage Band students were exposed to jazz and found they really ked it so they started listening to it on their own. Senior Stage .and member Karalee Kiger likes jazz because it's not so precise. 'ou improvise which allows you to express your feelings through we music. Some of my favorites are Oscar Peterson and Count lasie. Bluegrass is another style of music which students are exploring. enior Sylvia Ewert attended the Bluegrass Festival in September 983. l like bluegrass because it's a different style and I like the 1usicians, said Ewert. The festival was fun because I like watch- tg different kinds of people. However, the big sound of the 80s is techno- rock. Some musicians, like Neal Young, are using synthesizers to add a variety of Junds to their creations. He tried it in his album Trans. So the next time someone bobs down the hall in headphones, 'ieck them out. They may turn you on to a new style of music. Top: Junior Amy Girard searches for Tim Curry albums at the used record store called the Music Merchant. The Merchant buys and sells used albums and tapes. Bottom: One of the best parts of attending the Winfield Bluegrass Festival is just walking around the campfires and listen- ing to musicians play. :orn.v.,- -. - h ,V Sounds of the 8Os! 15
