'Weet jij misschien waar Akron ligt?'
'Uhmmm, ja. In Ohio, ten noordoosten van Cincinati.'

Voor de liefhebbers: “The Akron Sound refers to the independent music, largely new wave and punk rock, coming out of Akron, Ohio, in the late 1970s.” Zie verder https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akron_Sound
Echter: “Music made in Akron symbolized an attitude more so than a singular sound. Crafted by kids hell-bent on not following their parents into the rubber plants, the music was an intentional antithesis of Top 40 radio. Call it punk or call it new wave, but in a short few years, major labels signed Chrissie Hynde, Devo, the Waitresses, Tin Huey, the Bizarros, the Rubber City Rebels and Rachel Sweet. (...) London's Stiff Records released an Akron compilation album, and suddenly there were "Akron Nights" in London clubs and CBGB was waiving covers for people with Akron IDs”, aldus https://www.arcadiapublishing.com/products/9781625858634
Er is trouwens ook een “Akron Sound Museum” http://www.clevelandmemory.org/aks/index.html
Tom, weet wat je aanricht met zo’n eenvoudige vraag als “Weet jij misschien waar Akron ligt?” Ik vermoed dat voor de meeste lezers van je blog de topografische kennis omtrent Akron meer dan voldoende is.
Groet, Roel
Ha Roel,
