Download or read book Heavy Metal Music From The Inside Quotes On Being A Rocker written by Aaron Joy and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-01-28 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A rock musician's life is glamorous, but it is also a winding road of learning and discovery with no clear road signs to guide by. This book broadly paints this unique journey via the words of those who have done it and have much to share following both successes and failures ... or at least stuff to vent about. This book - written by a musician and label owner known for his music crossword book series - goes deep inside the music business and into the musician's life, looking for the real struggle, real life and real feelings. It tries to paint the otherwise invisible street signs as it charts the life of a musician from learning an instrument to being in a band to breaking up, quoting both mainstream and indie musicians. While the book may be focused on the heavy metal/hard rock experience, the story it tells is actually one any struggling or successful working musician will relate to. This is unlike any other music quote book around and is more than a collection of thoughts but an education.

Download or read book Into Da Bright Poetry Inspired And In Tribute To The Ruchira Avatar Adi Da Samraj written by Aaron Joy and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-07-06 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adi Da Samraj is a Eastern based guru and teacher unparalleled ...a prolific intellect, writer and artist ...the promised God-Man ...and the divine Ruchira (Bright) Avatar. He's been known over the decades by many names and like many teachers has had his share of controversy, but what he taught and the connection he's made with countless followers goes beyond normal understanding and or the common social landscape. His profundity might be his greatest gift and makes the controversy trivial for many who have come into his presence. These poems by a devotee were written between 2009 and 2013 and look at the relationship of the student to the teacher, the guru, the Bright, God. Yet, they also go beyond Adi Da Samraj to look at spirituality on the whole, the dilemma of an earthly existence, the search for God.

Download or read book The Soundies written by Mark Cantor and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2023-04-19 with total page 2077 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1940s saw a brief audacious experiment in mass entertainment: a jukebox with a screen. Patrons could insert a dime, then listen to and watch such popular entertainers as Nat "King" Cole, Gene Krupa, Cab Calloway or Les Paul. A number of companies offered these tuneful delights, but the most successful was the Mills Novelty Company and its three-minute musical shorts called Soundies. This book is a complete filmography of 1,880 Soundies: the musicians heard and seen on screen, recording and filming dates, arrangers, soloists, dancers, entertainment trade reviews and more. Additional filmographies cover more than 80 subjects produced by other companies. There are 125 photos taken on film sets, along with advertising images and production documents. More than 75 interviews narrate the firsthand experiences and recollections of Soundies directors and participants. Forty years before MTV, the Soundies were there for those who loved the popular music of the 1940s. This was truly "music for the eyes."
