Book excerpt: THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER A BOOK OF THE YEAR PICK IN THE TIMES: 'Captivating' A ROUGH TRADE BOOK OF THE YEAR: 'In-depth and inspiring' 'Beautifully compiled ... the perfect festival experience' THE SUNDAY TIMES Glastonbury 50 is the authorised, behind-the-scenes, inside story of the music festival that has become a true global phenomenon. The story begins in 1970. The day after Jimi Hendrix's death... dairy farmer Michael Eavis invites revellers to his field in Somerset to attend a 'Pop, Folk & Blues' festival. Tickets are £1 each, enticing more than a thousand customers with the promise of music, dance, poetry, theatre, lights and spontaneous entertainment - as well as free milk from his own Worthy Farm cows. Fast forward through five tumultuous decades and the Eavis's vision now encompasses a gigantic 'city in the fields', with a total annual population nearing a quarter of a million. Tickets sell out within minutes, the show is beamed live to more than 40 countries around the globe, and over 3 million people are registered to attend. Meanwhile, the bill has expanded to include big name performers, artists and designers from every branch of the creative arts. Glastonbury Festival is now the largest outdoor green fields event in the world. In their own words, Michael and Emily Eavis reveal the stories behind the headlines, and celebrate 50 years of history in the Vale of Avalon. They're joined by a host of big-name contributors from the world of music - among them Adele, JAY-Z, Dolly Parton, Chris Martin, Noel Gallagher, Lars Ulrich and Guy Garvey. They're joined by artists - Stanley Donwood, Kurt Jackson and many more. Writers - Caitlin Moran, Lauren Laverne, Billy Bragg - and by a host of photographers, from Seventies icon Brian Walker to rock and roll legends Jill Furmanovsky and Greg Williams. Together they bring you the magic that makes Glastonbury, Glastonbury.

Download or read book GLASTONBURY on TV written by Valerio Berdini and published by . This book was released on 2011-07-05 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Glastonbury on TV explores different levels. Surely, it is a music photography project. I have been photographing live shows since 1999 and I am looking for a different perspective besides the standard I get from the press pit. From a conceptual point of view it takes the festival experience and turns it upside down. Especially Glastonbury festival, notorious for getting people wet, muddy and messy while they walk throughout the fields to get to the many stages. This set is shot from the comfort of home, sitting on a sofa in a dry and relaxed living room. Instead of hiking on wellies, the stages are reached with a remote. Instead of changing lenses, protecting cameras or finding the right spot, it benefits from BBC professional direction. Instead of having short and restricted "three songs no flash" conditions, it covers the entire length of the concert, which is often aired multiple times a day. A camera on a tripod, a fixed macro lens pointing at the screen and eyes wide open to catch the moment. I like constraining my work within limits. Obstacles stimulate creativity. The limit here is the screen and its rendition in photos. The challenge is to take advantage of the hurdle. I exacerbated it using an old cathode ray tube TV. Due to the low resolution, the Red-Green-Blue pattern of the pixels inevitably becomes a perceptible part of the image. All the images are in the 4:3 ratio used on these monitors. These photos would fail if they were a lazy representation of a concert, the set aims to stand alone as a photography's piece.

Download or read book Now that s what I call a history of the 1980s written by Lucy Robinson and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2023-07-18 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now that’s what I call a history of the 1980s tells the story of eighties Britain through its popular culture. Charting era-defining moments from Lady Diana’s legs and the miners’ strike to Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage and Adam and the Ants, Lucy Robinson weaves together an alternative history to the one we think we know. This is not a history of big geopolitical disasters, or a nostalgic romp through discos, shoulder pads and yuppie culture. Instead, the book explores a mashing together of different genres and fan bases in order to make sense of our recent past and give new insights into the decade that defined both globalisation and excess. Packed with archival and cultural research but written with verve and spark, the book offers as much to general readers as to scholars of this period, presenting a distinctive and definitive contemporary history of 1980s Britain, from pop to politics, to cold war cultures, censorship and sexuality.

Download or read book Bloody Old Britain written by Kitty Hauser and published by Granta Books. This book was released on 2015-06-04 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: O. G. S. Crawford (1886-1957) thought history held the answers to everything. A field archaeologist, he later became a photographer flying over the Western Front during the First World War - an experience that made him a pioneer of aerial archaeology. An impassioned Marxist, it seemed to him that 1930s Britain would soon disappear, conquered by history's inevitable march to world socialism, and he made a photographic study of everyday things - churches and advertising hoardings - as future evidence of how unenlightened British society had once been. Later there came angry disillusionment and a book, too bitter to be published, called Bloody Old Britain. In recounting Crawford's extraordinary story, Kitty Hauser uses many of his photographs and penetrates neglected but fascinating aspects of British life and belief that have themselves become history.
Download or read book The Historic King Arthur written by Frank D. Reno and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2007-03-06 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who was King Arthur? How did the story originate? Through careful research of the many primary documents, a picture of the true Arthur can in fact be set down. He reached power shortly after the Romans evacuated Britain at the end of the fifth century and died at the Battle of Camlann. He became king at 15 under the name of Ambrosius Aurelianus and fought against the Saxons on the mainland as Riothamus, thus explaining the regeneration motif so closely tied to the mythical Arthur. This study reveals that the integrity and ideals central to Arthurian myth were very much a part of the real Arthur.
