There is no doubt this could be her dream house, her dream life with the man she loves. Not so dreamy is all that she is beginning to see packaged with him. The crazy hours of a very active life. The garbage behind the glam. Mostly, a moody and presumptuous rock star whose public persona is opposite of the sweet celebrity she fell for. "Storm's Eye" is book 2 of the G Strings Anniversary Set.

Download or read book B Sides Undercurrents and Overtones Peripheries to Popular in Music 1960 to the Present written by George Plasketes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-23 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are undercurrents and peripheral taste preferences that are a defining part of our individual and collective cultural experience. Music is no exception. George Plasketes adapts the iconic "A-side/B-side" dichotomy from the 45 r.p.m. for use as a unique conceptual, critical, historical, and cultural framework for exploring and threading together a variety of popular music and media texts. The profiles and perspectives focus on the peripheries; on texts which might be considered "B-sides"”overlooked, underappreciated, and unsung cases, creators, patterns and productions that have unassumingly, but significantly, marked popular culture, music and media during the past 40 years. The underappreciated yet enduring contributions of a variety of creative individuals in music, television and film are a centerpiece of this volume: actress Doris Day's son, Terry Melcher, a 1960s music producer whose imprint is on the surf, country blues, garage pop and most importantly the folk rock genre; Hans Fenger's kid chorus cover project, a musical variation of "outsider art" that became representative of the tribute wave that began in the 1990s and continues today; versatile guitarist virtuoso Ry Cooder's extensive film soundtrack work; World Music "missionary efforts" of American artists beyond Paul Simon's Graceland, including Neil Diamond's precursor with Tap Root Manuscript in the 1970s and the exotic adventures of Henry Kaiser and David Lindley in Madagascar and Norway”to name just a few examples. These B-sides represent undercurrents, but they resonate as overtones in the mainstream of music and culture, many as historical hinges. Collectively, these B-sides are an A-side antidote of outskirt observations, individual snapshots of artists, artifacts and rituals, genres and generations, producers and musical productions in television, film and video. They constitute an important connect-the-dots cultural chronicle with a multi-layered context”social, legal, historic, economic, technological, generational, aesthetic”for interpreting the interrelations between creators and institutions, the music market place, the production of culture and important connections between the peripheral and the popular.

And my family needs me to keep this job or they’ll end up on the streets. Except there is one massive problem. I’ve fallen head over heels for my Rockstar boss. He’s a rock n roll heartthrob and I’m a nobody who’s nearly homeless. Hitting on the bandmates is forbidden and results in immediate termination. So I tried to avoid him as much as possible. But when he offers me a secret job that requires me to be with him almost 24/7, I can’t say no. When we finally kiss I’m left craving an encore. If anyone found out what we’ve been doing on the side, both our lives will be ruined forever… Unexpected Baby For My Brother's Best Friend: I broke the bro code and took my best friend’s sister’s V card. Now there’s hell to pay. Rock-n-roll and relationships don’t mix, at least not for me. I knew my best friend’s sister was trouble, but I wanted a taste anyway. I shouldn’t be thinking about how her minidress would look crumpled on the floor. Or how good she’d look on my bed. Or the feeling of her thighs resting on my shoulders. But it’s all I can think about. She’s all I can think about. One night of bliss may cost me everything. My best friend, my career, and my carefree future. But when she tells me I’m going to be her baby’s daddy… Accidental Fake Fiancé He left me with more than one memorable night. Now a surprise is on the way. One reckless night is all it took to leave me craving his arms and carrying his baby. Too bad he disappeared, and I have no way to find him. Oh, it gets worse. My brother’s wedding is coming up, and I am dateless. If I show up alone, my cheating ex will be all over me. When fate throws my one night of fun back together, I swoon over his tatted body and navy-blue eyes. After a few white lies, I have myself a rockstar fake fiancé. He broke my heart once, and I knew better than to fall for him again. But it may be the hormones talking, my heart wants to make him mine. And I realize I need to tell this rockstar the truth about the baby...before it's too late. Claimed By My Best Friend's Brother: Taking my sister’s best friend’s V card wasn’t part of my plan. An accident almost cost me my life, and I was stuck at my parent’s house to recover. I miss the lights, the stage, and my Rock n Roll lifestyle. But being stuck at home has its perks. Like the girl next door. Her curvy figure, dark hair, and witty banter drive me wild. She is all I can think about while I lay cooped up at home. Fourteen years younger, and my sister's best friend. Beyond off-limits, but that only makes me want her more. Okay, the situation isn’t ideal. But she’s everything I never knew I needed. I’ll do anything to win her heart. But that might tear our families apart…

Download or read book Janis written by Holly George-Warren and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2019-10-22 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Longlisted for the 2020 Andrew Carnegie Medals for Excellence This blazingly intimate biography of Janis Joplin establishes the Queen of Rock & Roll as the rule-breaking musical trailblazer and complicated, gender-bending rebel she was. Janis Joplin’s first transgressive act was to be a white girl who gained an early sense of the power of the blues, music you could only find on obscure records and in roadhouses along the Texas and Louisiana Gulf Coast. But even before that, she stood out in her conservative oil town. She was a tomboy who was also intellectually curious and artistic. By the time she reached high school, she had drawn the scorn of her peers for her embrace of the Beats and her racially progressive views. Her parents doted on her in many ways, but were ultimately put off by her repeated acts of defiance. Janis Joplin has passed into legend as a brash, impassioned soul doomed by the pain that produced one of the most extraordinary voices in rock history. But in these pages, Holly George-Warren provides a revelatory and deeply satisfying portrait of a woman who wasn’t all about suffering. Janis was a perfectionist: a passionate, erudite musician who was born with talent but also worked exceptionally hard to develop it. She was a woman who pushed the boundaries of gender and sexuality long before it was socially acceptable. She was a sensitive seeker who wanted to marry and settle down—but couldn’t, or wouldn’t. She was a Texan who yearned to flee Texas but could never quite get away—even after becoming a countercultural icon in San Francisco. Written by one of the most highly regarded chroniclers of American music history, and based on unprecedented access to Janis Joplin’s family, friends, band mates, archives, and long-lost interviews, Janis is a complex, rewarding portrait of a remarkable artist finally getting her due.

In House of Hits, Andy Bradley and Roger Wood chronicle the fascinating history of Gold Star/SugarHill, telling a story that effectively covers the postwar popular music industry. They describe how Houston's lack of zoning ordinances allowed founder Bill Quinn's house studio to grow into a large studio complex, just as SugarHill's willingness to transcend musical boundaries transformed it into of one of the most storied recording enterprises in America. The authors offer behind-the-scenes accounts of numerous hit recordings, spiced with anecdotes from studio insiders and musicians who recorded at SugarHill. Bradley and Wood also place significant emphasis on the role of technology in shaping the music and the evolution of the music business. They include in-depth biographies of regional stars and analysis of the various styles of music they represent, as well as a list of all of Gold Star/SugarHill's recordings that made the Billboard charts and extensive selected historical discographies of the studio's recordings.
