In the beginning


Why did folks beat a stick on a log? Appease the Gods? Blow off steam? Impress a probable mate? Accompany oral mythologies assisting memory?

I need a good book on how music may have begin. Plus your thoughts.

Man didn’t start the music, it was always all around us: birds chirping in the woods, wind blowing in the trees, gorillas beating their chests, wolves howling kids laughing, women crying. We just add our verses and overtime it became a beautiful thing.

Yep, specifically women. I have never found men crying musical. Did I offend your sensibilities?
