Book excerpt: Having been dirt poor all of my life, nothing could have prepared me for my current flight to a private island in the Bahamas on Trace Walker¿s, one of the three billionaire Walker brothers, private jet. I¿d set out late this morning for my new job opportunity as personal assistant to my idol, Dane Walker, currently one of the top artists in the world. My entire worldly goods of five dollars was in my purse so I absolutely had to make this job work. This was also my opportunity to stop running for my life with a great place to hide. What I didn¿t know was that I was hired by Trace and Sabastian Walker and that I would be a total surprise to their youngest brother, Dane, who had chosen to be a recluse ever since the plane crash that took his father and new step-mother¿s lives eight years before. When I first fell clumsily into Danes arms getting out of the limo that took me to his house, I could see that he still had a few scars from surgeries and some burns left over from the crash, but I could not control my physical response to his massive body that was ripped, his sun kissed skin, his unruly jet-black hair and his unnerving chocolate brown stare. In response to my arguments for keeping my job, Dane grudgingly agreed to a trial period and I was determined to ignore the heat that sizzled between us. I could not afford to give in to a fling that would make it awkward to remain working for Dane, no matter how much I wanted to give in to my desire and the mesmerizing look in his eyes. The longer I worked for him, the closer we got, and the harder it was to remember that my life depended on keeping my distance. Deep down I knew that it would only be a matter of time before I gave in¿¿.

Billionaire Simon Hudson makes her an offer that is impossible to refuse, but terrifying to accept from a man that she's never met. Will the handsome, alpha billionaire really be a solution to her problems, or will he end up being a major complication and a danger to her emotional sanity? Reclusive billionaire Simon Hudson would rather be behind a computer creating computer games than rubbing elbows with the elite and he knows exactly what he wants...until he meets Kara Foster. Something about Kara touches Simon in ways he's never experienced and definitely doesn't like. For over a year, Simon watches over Kara, but stubbornly refuses to admit his desire to possess her, not even to himself. But when she ends up in a situation that could very well be her destruction, Simon steps up to help her, not realizing that in saving Kara, he might very well be salvaging his own soul.

Download or read book Scott Walker and the Song of the One all alone written by Scott Wilson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2019-10-03 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scott Walker and the Song of the One-All-Alone offers, in detailed interpretative commentaries of his best songs, a sustained assessment of the work and career of Scott Walker, one of the most significant and perplexing artists of the late 20th and 21st century. For Brian Eno, Walker was not only a great composer and a superlative lyricist but also a significant contemporary poet. Marc Almond goes further, 'an absolute musical genius, existential and intellectual and a star right from the days of The Walker Brothers'. As Almond suggests, Walker's work is marked by a continual engagement with existentialist philosophy informing his approach to art, politics and life. In particular, the device of the solitary figure or 'one-all-alone' evoked in his songs provides the basis for his lyrical exploration of the singularity of existence – in all its darkness as well as light. Through following his own path, Walker arrived at a unique sound according to his own method that produced a genuinely new form of song. Looking closely at these songs, this book also considers the wider political implications of his approach in its rejection of external authorities and common or consensual ideals.

Book excerpt: A colourful collection of pieces on the enigmatic genius of Scott Walker from THE WIRE. Scott Walker has travelled from teen idol to the outer limits of music. From 'The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Any More' reaching No.1, through to recordings of meat being punched on his last album, THE DRIFT, he somehow seems to have reached a passionate and committed fan base. Throughout his career, his impeccable critical reputation as a serious and uncompromising musician has never been questioned. The recent film, 30TH CENTURY MAN, had a litany of stars queuing up to praise Walker: the likes of David Bowie, Damon Albarn, Jarvis Cocker, Radiohead, Johnny Marr and Sting. But despite this, in 40 years of music, there has yet to be a serious book on Scott Walker. This collection, put together by Rob Young of THE WIRE magazine, features a handful of previously published articles and newly commissioned pieces, largely drawn from the orbit of THE WIRE's writers including Ian Penman, Chris Bohn and Rob Young.

Download or read book Scott Walker written by Lewis Williams and published by Plexus Publishing. This book was released on 2019-07-15 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scott Walker is without parallel as an artist, acclaimed as an influence by Bowie, Julian Cope, Marc Almond, Nick Cave and Jarvis Cocker. As lead vocalist of the Walker Brothers, his soulful baritone made him a major interpreter of heartbroken ballads. As a solo artist, the influence of balladeer Jacques Brel and existentialist literature took him to new depths of emotional expression on the albums Scott 1-4. Then came years of obscurity as a covers artist, before his career took off on a unique trajectory — witnessed by his extreme contributions to the Walkers' 1978 reunion album, Nite Flights, the opaque tone poems of 1984's Climate of Hunter, the bewildering brilliant 1995 Tilt, and the unrelenting psychic assault of 2006's The Drift. In this comprehensive illustrated volume, lifelong fan Lewis Williams charts this unique and enigmatic career song by song. From his 1960s heyday and beyond, every classic, every rarity and every obscurity ever recorded by Scott Walker is detailed with an obsessive enthusiasm that only he can inspire.
