ダンスは済んだ? (10)

160127_01 千葉大や建築研究所などが、震災被害の資料から建物の傾きなど杭の損傷が疑われた公営住宅や学校、庁舎などを2012年と13年に調査。宮城、福島、茨城、栃木、埼玉、千葉の各県の計42棟で杭の損傷がみられた。耐震基準が強化された1981年以降の建物も16棟あった。情報が得られた公共施設が主な調査対象のため、民間も含めた全体像は分かっていない。
 目視やカメラなどで地下を調べると、コンクリート製の杭が砕けたり、破断したりしていた。建物の揺れや地盤の変形で無理な力がかかったと考えられるという。被害は低地23棟、埋め立て地や盛り土地9棟など軟らかい地盤が多くを占め、地盤の液状化が直接影響したとみられる例も5棟あった。

「被害が疑われた61棟のうち42棟で損傷」
この割合、確率は高いね。
建物自体が無事でも、耐震基準を満たさなくなってるので、住めないし、資産価値はゼロどころかマイナス。
危険なのでただちに取り壊すしかない。
首都直下型でもおそらく同じだろう。

巨大地震は、いうなれば大地がシェイクし、地層がツイストし、杭がブレイクダンスをするようなもの。
人間の営為を嘲笑うかの如き、死の舞踏(La Danse Macabre)にほかならず、
我ら、いづれ ことごとく滅び去る運命 と観念すべきである。

Out of Los Angeles, a one shot single on the Dore label by unknown Latino, Dee Torres. The original hit version was issued by Billy Bland on Old Town Records in 1960. A decent version was recorded by Grantley Dee in Australia in 1966. This version recorded at Hollywood’s Gold Star Studios, includes an uncredited Gene Page page arrangement featuring an ensemble of L.A’s’Wrecking Crew’ with a prominent brass section front and center. The flip,’I Want You’, is a Dee Torres original in true East L.A. slow grind style.

Johnny Madara & the Juvenaires – Do The Bop(1957)
キャピトル・レコードが却下した未発売曲。ディック・クラークの助言に従い題名と歌詞を変えバンド名を改めて、ABC-Paramount から発売された。

conducted by Artie Singer
NOTE: This interesting track remained unissued until the early 1990’s, and the pictured 45 scan (from around the same time) inaccurately credits Danny & the Juniors, who had been known as The Juvenaries when they made this first recording with singer-songwriter Madara. Though the track was not released in’57, Dick Clark felt that it had promise and suggested that the title & lyric be changed to “At The Hop.” So it was re-written and recorded again with Danny Rapp replacing Madara as lead vocal and the Juvenaries re-named Danny & the Juniors

Do The Bop
by Johnny Madara
© Copyright – That Philly Sound / That Philly Sound(634479361609)
50’s rock and roll and Doo-wop. The original recording of At The Hop, with Danny and The Juniors.
Genre: Rock: 50’s Rock
Release Date: 2004
Album Notes
For collectors and fans alike, DO THE BOP is the original unreleased version of the classic 50’s hit, AT THE HOP, featuring Philadelphia’s own, Johnny Madara, with Danny and The Juniors singing back-up. DO THE BOP was written by John and Dave White. It includes the doo-wop hit, SOMETIMES (WHEN I’M ALL ALONE), also written by Dave White with Danny and The Juniors singing back-up.
This historical CD is presented by songwriter/record producer, John Madara, through THAT PHILLY SOUND, which is dedicated to the music that came out of Philadelphia during the 50’s and 60’s.
Before becoming a songwriter/record producer, John “Johnny” Madara was an artist with his first record reaching the national charts, “Be My Girl.” But fate would step in when John heard a group, The Juvenaires, singing on the street corner. The group was headed by Dave White and John and Dave soon formed a partnership.
At the time, John had a record contract with Capitol Records. Dave and John wrote a song, DO THE BOP. They went in and recorded it with the B-side, SOMETIMES (WHEN I’M ALL ALONE). John sang the lead, and the Juvenaires sang the background. Capitol Records didn’t like it. They didn’t understand early rock and roll.
John knew Dick Clark from American Bandstand. Dick really liked the song, but suggested that the title and lyrics be changed to reflect the record hops, which were really taking off. The Bop was a dance that was on the way out.
They followed Dick’s advice. DO THE BOP became AT THE HOP. The lyrics were changed but the music was the same. The Juvenaires, which had renamed themselves Danny And The Juniors, recorded the song, along with Sometimes (When I’m All Alone). Through ABC Paramount, who had acquired the master, AT THE HOP reached the top of the charts worldwide, and remained #1 for an astounding seven weeks, the first record to reach that success.
Along with AT THE HOP, John and Dave would go on to write and produce such timeless classics as THE FLY (Chubby Checker), YOU DON’T OWN ME (Leslie Gore) and 1-2-3 (Len Barry, who also co-wrote the song with Madara & White). These and countless other hits by Madara & White helped to create “The Sound of Philadelphia.”
Both songs have been digitally restored and digitally mastered.
