Review & Description

James Whren is brilliant, beautiful and taken--with himself, or more precisely his genius for creating music. The object of desire for many, James's greatest passion is for his muse.On the eve of his brother's funeral, his father turns his life upside down, and James is left abandoned in hell with no one real to save him.His odyssey to freedom takes him beyond the looking glass, to the view from friends and lovers, shattering his already battered self-image.Humbled, afraid and alone, James escapes to the Greek island of Corfu. But instead of solace, loneliness almost consumes him.Until Elisabeth, and her son Cameron.Reverb is a love story, a psychological thriller paced with romantic suspense, and chronicles the evolution of a modern man, from solipsist to integrated awareness. It is a tale of redemption, of one man's bizarre journey through extraordinary emotional growth, awakening his capacity to love.Reverb satisfies women's deepest desire-- for men to be more emotionally available, and more connected outside of themselves.

Review & Description

Set for release by Universal in October, 2010, and produced by T Bone Burnett, The Union marks the culmination of a mutual musical adoration that began in the late 1960s, ahead of Elton's debut US performance in 1970 at The Troubadour Club in Los Angeles. The album is a collaboration between Elton and Leon Russell, with songs by Elton and Bernie Taupin; by Elton, Bernie and Leon; by Elton and Leon and by Leon alone.

The Union was recorded in Los Angeles earlier this year, with guest musicians including Brian Wilson, Booker T, Don Was and Neil Young. Cameron Crowe has filmed the sessions for a documentary, creating too a moment of history as this is the first time that the genesis of Elton's music has been recorded on film. Critics who have had an early preview of the album are united in praise for the work that Elton describes as a "Seventies record with a modern feel." Read more

Review & Description

Everyone warned Emma Taylor about Dean Price. Her grandmother said he was bad news. Even his own family don't trust him, but Emma can't help falling in love with her best friend's handsome and charming older brother, so when Dean breaks her heart, she knows she only has herself to blame. But Dean isn't the villain everyone makes him out to be. He's just made some bad choices in life, and his biggest mistake causes him to have a horrific accident which he never quite recovers from.

But Dean has spent the past eight years regretting his actions, and isn't so quick to let her go this time. There aren't just the two of them anymore.

Review & Description

If the members of Blondie, Garbage and Devo were to team up, they would sound like Stimulator, an electro-shake your body disco/rock group that is currently tearing up the Los Angeles music scene opening up for bands like Berlin, Missing Person’s, General Public and more. Stimulator will release their self-titled debut album on April 12th and have their cover of Olivia Newton John’s classic song "Magic" featured in the Disney movie Ella Enchanted, also out in April.

Described by the LA Weekly as "seriously sassy & catchy pop;" Stimulator combines the presence of sultry front woman/songwriter/fashion designer Susan Hyatt (formerly of UK Punk/Grunge chart toppers Pillbox & Ex MP3TV VJ) with the production/ lead guitar work of Geoff Tyson (formerly of goth-rockers Snake River Conspiracy & T-Ride).

Review & Description

Did you know that Brian Jones was told by a medium to “avoid water”? Or that Buddy Holly only decided to fly so he’d have time to finish his laundry? The Encyclopedia of Dead Rock Stars reveals the truth behind these and thousands of other fascinating stories, while answering such perennial questions as:

 

      • which band boasts the most dead members?

      • who had the bright idea of changing a light bulb while standing in the shower?

      • and did Cass Elliot really check out before finishing lunch?

 

The Encyclopedia of Dead Rock Stars is the bible of pop music’s dead--the ultimate record of all those who arrived, rocked, and checked out over the last forty-odd years of fast cars, private jets, hard drugs, lethal weapons, and reckless living. Jeremy Simmonds here draws on a lifetime’s obsession to match the industry’s biggest departed stars--Buddy, Jeff, Sid, Jimi, Biggie, Janis, Elvis, Marc, Tupac--with more than a few lesser-known tales of rock tragedy. He also includes a smorgasbord of lighter-hearted sidebars, including strange facts, lucky escapes, and top-ten death discs.

 

An indispensable reference full of useful and useless information, with hundreds of photos of the good, the bad, and the silly, The Encyclopedia of Dead Rock Stars is guaranteed to rock the world of trivia buffs and diehards alike.

Review & Description

"There are no definitive histories," writes Elijah Wald, in this provocative reassessment of American popular music, "because the past keeps looking different as the present changes." Earlier musical styles sound different to us today because we hear them through the musical filter of other styles that came after them, all the way through funk and hiphop.
As its blasphemous title suggests, How the Beatles Destroyed Rock 'n' Roll rejects the conventional pieties of mainstream jazz and rock history. Rather than concentrating on those traditionally favored styles, the book traces the evolution of popular music through developing tastes, trends and technologies--including the role of records, radio, jukeboxes and television --to give a fuller, more balanced account of the broad variety of music that captivated listeners over the course of the twentieth century. Wald revisits original sources--recordings, period articles, memoirs, and interviews--to highlight how music was actually heard and experienced over the years. And in a refreshing departure from more typical histories, he focuses on the world of working musicians and ordinary listeners rather than stars and specialists. He looks for example at the evolution of jazz as dance music, and rock 'n' roll through the eyes of the screaming, twisting teenage girls who made up the bulk of its early audience. Duke Ellington, Benny Goodman, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, and the Beatles are all here, but Wald also discusses less familiar names like Paul Whiteman, Guy Lombardo, Mitch Miller, Jo Stafford, Frankie Avalon, and the Shirelles, who in some cases were far more popular than those bright stars we all know today, and who more accurately represent the mainstream of their times.
Written with verve and style, How the Beatles Destroyed Rock 'n' Roll shakes up our staid notions of music history and helps us hear American popular music with new ears. Read more

Review & Description

"They've said some crazy things about me over the years. I mean, okay: 'He bit the head off a bat.' Yes. 'He bit the head off a dove.' Yes. But then you hear things like, 'Ozzy went to the show last night, but he wouldn't perform until he'd killed fifteen puppies . . .' Now me, kill fifteen puppies? I love puppies. I've got eighteen of the f**king things at home. I've killed a few cows in my time, mind you. And the chickens. I shot the chickens in my house that night.

It haunts me, all this crazy stuff. Every day of my life has been an event. I took lethal combinations of booze and drugs for thirty f**king years. I survived a direct hit by a plane, suicidal overdoses, STDs. I've been accused of attempted murder. Then I almost died while riding over a bump on a quad bike at f**king two miles per hour.

People ask me how come I'm still alive, and I don't know what to say. When I was growing up, if you'd have put me up against a wall with the other kids from my street and asked me which one of us was gonna make it to the age of sixty, which one of us would end up with five kids and four grandkids and houses in Buckinghamshire and Beverly Hills, I wouldn't have put money on me, no f**king way. But here I am: ready to tell my story, in my own words, for the first time.

A lot of it ain't gonna be pretty. I've done some bad things in my time. I've always been drawn to the dark side, me. But I ain't the devil. I'm just John Osbourne: a working-class kid from Aston, who quit his job in the factory and went looking for a good time." Read more
