Download or read book Times Remembered written by Joe La Barbera and published by University of North Texas Press. This book was released on 2021-10-15 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late 1970s legendary pianist Bill Evans was at the peak of his career. He revolutionized the jazz trio (bass, piano, drums) by giving each part equal emphasis in what jazz historian Ted Gioia called a “telepathic level” of interplay. It was an ideal opportunity for a sideman, and after auditioning in 1978, Joe La Barbera was ecstatic when he was offered the drum chair, completing the trio with Evans and bassist Marc Johnson. In Times Remembered, La Barbera and co-author Charles Levin provide an intimate fly-on-the-wall peek into Evans’s life, critical recording sessions, and behind-the-scenes anecdotes of life on the road. Joe regales the trio’s magical connection, a group that quickly gelled to play music on the deepest and purest level imaginable. He also watches his dream gig disappear, a casualty of Evans’s historical drug abuse when the pianist dies in a New York hospital emergency room in 1980. But La Barbera tells this story with love and respect, free of judgment, showing Evans’s humanity and uncanny ability to transcend physical weakness and deliver first-rate performances at nearly every show.

Book excerpt: A compellingly candid memoir that details Jackson's life in seclusion, by the bodyguards who were with him in his final days - with a new introduction to commemorate the tenth anniversary of Michael Jackson's death . Hounded by the tabloid media, driven from his self-made sanctuary, Neverland, Michael Jackson spent his final years moving from city to city, living with his three children in virtual seclusion -- a futile attempt to escape a world that wouldn't leave him alone. During that time, two men served as the singer's personal security team: Bill Whitfield, a former cop and veteran of the security profession, and Javon Beard, a brash, untested rookie, both single fathers themselves. Stationed at his side nearly 24/7, their job was to see and hear everything that transpired, and to keep everyone else out, making them the only two men who know what 60 million fans around the world still want to know: What really happened to the King of Pop? Driven by a desire to show the world who Michael Jackson truly was, Whitfield and Beard have produced the only definitive, first-person account of Michael Jackson's last years: the extreme measures necessary to protect Jackson and his family, the financial struggles that led their pay to be suspended for weeks at a time, the simple moments of happiness they managed to share in a time of great stress, the special relationship Jackson shared with his fans, and the tragic events that culminated in the singer's ill-fated comeback, This Is It. The truth is far more captivating than anything you've yet heard. An indispensable piece of pop-culture history, Remember the Time is the story of a man struggling to live a normal life under extraordinary circumstances, of a father fighting to protect and provide for his children. Remember the Time is the book that dismantles the tabloid myths once and for all to give Michael Jackson back his humanity.

Download or read book A Time to Remember written by Charles Henry Pointer and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2016-06-30 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea for writing this book came about when I wondered where the subject matter would come from to do my third book. I wanted to write a book that I felt strong compassion for, and I remembered when I was a senior getting a bachelor of science degree in secondary education with a major in history and minor in English at Southern Illinois University at Edwards in 1974, which became my teaching areas to teach on the high school level in the state of Missouri, and part of the graduation from the history department required its students to write a historical paper on any topic they were interested in. With the encouragement of my professor Dr. Herbert Rosenthal, he said I should write it on Stokely Carmichael, leader of the civil rights organization called SNCC, which meant nonviolent student coordinating committee, who made the term black power popular because Stokely wanted black people to control their own destiny and build an economic base of power for themselves.
Download or read book Coleraine written by William Connor and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "My earliest memories of Ireland fade with each passing year. Yet sometimes, quite unexpectedly, the wonder and beauty of the Ireland I knew returns, stirring within me memories of an enchanted land. And with each encounter I experience a yearning to return, to find a secluded corner in the Anderson Park where I might quietly reflect on what it was like growing up in a town without violence, a town where people lived in relative peace and harmony with one another. While in the park I will remember my father and our leisurely Sunday afternoon walks together. Perhaps too, I will recall a different walk beyond the town and that warm summer evening in the grass, flushed with the excitement of first love. And like every other visit, I will experience the bittersweet memory of family and friends who have passed on and who were, for a time, such an important part of my life." Set in Northern Ireland in the late sixties and early seventies, the novel recalls a chapter in Ireland's troubled past. In the aftermath of a bombing in the quiet town of Ballycastle, Willie Thompson's family struggle to make sense out of what has happened, unaware that this tragic event foreshadows something even more terrible. A work of historical fiction, Coleraine - A Time Remembered, spans a generation, from a time when life was simple, straightforward and innocent, to a time of bloody conflict. It is the story of ordinary people, who find within themselves the strength to deal with the sudden and unexpected hand life has dealt them. It is in the end a people's journey, a story of love and devotion, of courage and tragedy, a story of faith and renewal in a beautiful and troubled land. The characters portrayed in this evocative, moving, and sometimes humourous story, afford the reader a rare glimpse into a way of life in Ireland that has all but disappeared.
