Riepilogo Editore:

Cosa possiamo imparare da un "cantante"? In questo audiobook il Coach Claudio Belotti, in veste di fan di Bowie, ci spiega come la carriera di questo grande artista da poco scomparso possa darci spunti ed insegnamenti per migliorare, essere più felici ed avere successo. Claudio non ripercorre la vita del Duca Bianco in senso biografico; ne condivide gli insegnamenti che l'hanno da sempre ispirato, nutrito di bellezza e di apertura verso gli altri.

La passione di Coach Belotti è ancora più grande in questa sua nuova pubblicazione, dalla quale emerge tutto il suo affetto e la sua stima nei confronti di David Bowie. Chi avrebbe mai pensato che tra tutti i suoi Maestri di formazione, Claudio ponesse l'artista inglese al posto più importante e splendente? Bowie è stato ed è molto di più di un semplice cantante rock. Le parole emozionanti di Coach Belotti lo testimoniano, ed onorano in suo genio.

Riepilogo Editore:

A chi è dedicata questa collana? A chi ha spesso sentito parlare di un certo artista o di un certo genere musicale ma non lo conosce perfettamente. A chi non è interessato a biografie "vita morte e miracoli" e a noiosi trattati su un genere o un altro, ma unicamente a ciò che in ambito musicale conta davvero: la musica.

Questi audiobook presentano infatti la recensione di tutti gli album di un artista o i più rappresentativi di un certo genere musicale o di un periodo storico (ad esempio i cantautori degli anni '70, il beat italiano, il progressive rock, ecc.), e i testi sono raccontati più che letti, dal loro stesso autore, il critico musicale Lucio Mazzi. Di fatto una completa storia artistica ma anche, e soprattutto, una precisa indicazione di ascolto per conoscere davvero ciò di cui si è solo sentito parlare.

In questo audiobook: "The Beatles: I dischi - la storia".

Title: "I Hear America Singing"

Subtitle: Folk Music and National Identity

Author: Rachel Clare Donaldson

Narrator: Arthur Flavell

Format: Unabridged

Length: 11 hrs and 17 mins

Language: English

Release date: 03-17-16

Publisher: University Press Audiobooks

Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 3 votes

Genres: Arts & Entertainment, Music

Publisher's Summary:

Folk music is more than an idealized reminder of a simpler past. It reveals a great deal about present-day understandings of community and belonging. It celebrates the shared traditions that define a group or nation. In America, folk music - from African-American spirituals to English ballads and protest songs - renders the imagined community more tangible and comprises a critical component of our diverse national heritage.

In "I Hear America Singing", Rachel Donaldson traces the vibrant history of the 20th-century folk music revival from its origins in the 1930s through its end in the late 1960s. She investigates the relationship between the revival and concepts of nationalism, showing how key figures in the revival - including Pete Seeger, Alan Lomax, Moses Asch, and Ralph Rinzler - used songs to influence the ways in which Americans understood the values, the culture, and the people of their own nation.

Critic Reviews:

"'I Hear America Singing' is a very impressive intellectual history of the folk revival that expands its boundaries as it extends our understanding." (Ron Eyerman, Yale University)

Gospel music

This book was interesting and easy to read. Part 1 was the history of music. Part 11 was a collection of interviews from people in gospel music ministry. Dr. Thomas A. Dorsey and Rev. James Cleveland were highlighted. These men were responsible for the spread of gospel music in the United States and the world. Their legacy will never be forgotten. The National Convention of Gospel Choirs and Choruses was organized by Professor Thomas A. Dorsey. The Gospel Music Workshop of America, Inc. was founded by Rev. James Cleveland. Their impast on music ministry is evident throughout the world.Make a Joyful Noise! A Brief History of Gospel Music Ministry in America

Title: Another Nightmare Gig from Hell

Author: Nick Zelinger, Tammy Brackett

Narrator: Richard Rieman

Format: Unabridged

Length: 4 hrs and 8 mins

Language: English

Release date: 03-02-16

Publisher: Toby Press

Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 11 votes

Genres: Arts & Entertainment, Music

Publisher's Summary:

What do you say to a naked sheriff?

What song do you play when you're being robbed at gunpoint?

What happens when a swanky Cabaret performance turns into a virtual vomit-fest?

And when you're stuck on a frozen, high mountain pass with no way down, who gets eaten first: the drummer or the roadie?

These scenarios, plus many more, told by musicians, artists, and managers in their own words make up Another Nightmare Gig from Hell.

Presented by Nick Zelinger and Tammy Brackett, Another Nightmare Gig from Hell offers up the humorous, sometimes scary, mundane, and downright touching stories of what musicians encounter in the studio, on the road, plying their craft, and enduring another possible nightmare.

An entertaining (and enlightening) compilation of true stories from musicians, artists, managers, promoters, and more.

Members Reviews:

A look at some of the things musicians go through

Where does Another Nightmare Gig from Hell rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far?

There were some entertaining stories but it would have been better for me if I'd ever heard of any of the musicians.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I didn't have a favorite

Have you listened to any of Richard Riemans other performances before? How does this one compare?

No, I don't believe I've listened to Mr. Rieman before but his narration on this book was good so I wouldn't hesitate to listen to him in the future.

Any additional comments?

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

William Scannell

These stories are very believable, being a musician myself I have been in similar situations. I particularly like the Kev Ron story, #4 I think. A must read very entertaining! 5 stars.

If you like music, you will like this book

A very well written, behind the scenes look at music. I enjoyed this book very much, and feel like I have a better grasp of what goes on behind the stage. I received this book at no cost from the publisher author narrator for a honest review.

my ONLY COMPLAINT

My only complaint is I didn't want it to end!! the narrator did an excellent job & the story was great! I just wish it was longer!! I can't wait to hear more from this author & NARRATOR

Real Stories of Bands and their Nightmares

This was a very interesting collection of stories. As an artist, I have known my own collection of nightmare stories from being on the road but never imagined what could happen to bands as they traveled around the globe building their name and reputation. This was well worth the listen and well put together.

Richard Rieman did a great job telling these stories and keeping the compilation flowing from one story to the next. His diction is clear. He's articulate and interesting to listen to. Nice job.

Title: Sex, No Drugs & Rock'N'Roll

Subtitle: Memoirs of a Music Junkie

Author: L. E. Kalikow

Narrator: L. E. Kalikow

Format: Unabridged

Length: 12 hrs and 35 mins

Language: English

Release date: 02-29-16

Publisher: L.E.Kalikow LLC

Genres: Arts & Entertainment, Music

Publisher's Summary:

Sex, No Drugs & Rock'N'Roll: Memoirs of a Music Junkie is a "balls-to-the-wall" coming of age narrative explicitly told through the eyes of a musical "baby-boomer Holden Caulfield", simultaneously maturing with the country itself. From the 50s' innocent invulnerability following WWII, to the teenage years of rebellion and political unrest in the 60s, to the disillusionment and cynicism of the late 70s, sowing the seeds for the "me" generation to come. The dots connected in two universal languages: music and sex.

The book contains songs L.E. Kalikow wrote and performed during that time. Although the story is based on true life, certain names, personalities, and events have been altered, both for artistic and legal reasons, and should therefore be considered a "creative re-creation".

Memoir and much more

"Sex, No Drugs & RockânâRoll: Memoirs of a Music Junkie" is called a memoir, but, in truth, it's so much more. L.E. Kalikow recalls his childhood and later years as they played out against a backdrop of 4 decades of tumultuous political, social, and musical changes.

Though, perhaps, most resonant with those of the same generation, Kalikow's story speaks to everyone .

His witty, irreverent, insightful, touching, and often raunchy (the first word of the title is SEX) narrative made me laugh and cry and feel along with him the experiences of growing up in 50s suburbia, of discovering who we are, of yearning to succeed (professionally and with women!), and of the crushing disappointment of almost having one's dreams come true.

As a professional musician, Kalikow gives us an insider's view of the music industry and takes us along on the roller coaster ride that was his career, performing in venues big and small, and working with people both famous and less so. A major perk is that the reader can personally experience his music, as he had the wonderfully innovative idea to imbed many of his songs in the text of the ebook! Print book buyers can get the CD.

L.E. Kalikow's "Sex, No Drugs & RockânâRoll" is an upbeat and engaging story that grown-ups (no prudes, please!) will surely enjoy.

Lenny Lived It, and His Story Lives On!!!

This is one of the best books on the golden years of the music biz you'll ever read. It's also one of the best books on growing up in the post WW2 North East USA you'll ever read. Lenny Kalikow lived it, breathed it, got down with the nitty gritty of it all and lived to write this great book. The accompanying CD of some of Lenny's early songs is also a treat. Get this book. Besides being a total hoot of a great read you'll impress people who see it lying around your house. I mean it!!!

Coming of age never gets old

this is more than a great trip down memory lane, it's a multi-decade road map of the evolution and nexus of music, youth, counter culture, and boomers coming of age. J.D. Salinger's Holden Caulfield must be cheering the author on.

Title: Crate Digger

Subtitle: An Obsession with Punk Records

Author: Bob Suren

Narrator: Bob Suren

Format: Unabridged

Length: 6 hrs and 12 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-26-16

Publisher: Microcosm Publishing

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 6 votes

Genres: Arts & Entertainment, Music

Publisher's Summary:

In this engaging memoir, a small-town Florida teenager discovers punk rock through a loaned mix tape, and before long, punk music and culture slowly take over all aspects of his life. His new passion causes him to form a band, track down out-of-print records that he loves and begin to reissue them, open a record store, begin a record distribution operation as a public service, mentor a host of young musicians, and befriend all manner of punk luminaries along the way. Slowly, his life's pursuit pushes him to the point of personal ruination and ultimately redemption.

In Microcosm's first-ever audiobook, the unabridged book is read by the author and includes excerpted songs from most of the bands featured in the book!

Members Reviews:

A great telling of great bands and great stories from Bob!

The audible book of this book is what I listened to over several hours in the evening and night. You can really tell Bob's fondness over great moments like touring with Rattus and meeting great people in the Punk scene. And you can also tell Bob's emotional feelings towards his two bitter breakups, and the death of his friend who was stabbed to death at a Punk show for "being a nice guy."

However, the highlights of this book include the great records Bob got into and released! This audiobook also features a song from some of these records!

Recommended to Punk record buffs like myself and anyone who wants to get into the music but doesn't know where to start.

Riepilogo Editore:

I saggi, si sa, sono poco convenzionali. A Torino ce n'è uno che suona il flauto sotto un ponte sul Po. Non lo fa per esibizione ma soloper il piacere "acustico" di sentire il gioco dei riverberi sull'acqua. Incontrarlo vuol dire ascoltare parole che vengono da lontano, meravigliarsi per la casualità della bellezza ed "entrare in risonanza" con lo spirito del fiume.
