Hotter Than a Match Head

Resumen del Libro

Libro Hotter Than a Match Head

On October 15, 1967, bass player Steve Boone took the Ed Sullivan Show stage for the final time, with his band The Lovin' Spoonful. Since forming in a Greenwich Village hotel in early 1965, Boone and his bandmates had released an astounding nine Top 20 singles, the first seven of which hit the Billboard Top 10, including the iconic Boone co-writes "Summer in the City" and "You Didn't Have to Be So Nice." Little did Steve Boone know that the path of his life and career would soon take a turn for the bizarre, one that would eventually find him looking at the world through the bars of a jail cell. From captaining a seaworthy enterprise to smuggle marijuana into the U.S. from Colombia, to a period of addiction, to the successful reformation of the band he'd helped made famous, Hotter Than a Match Head tells the story of Boone's personal journey along with that of one of the most important and enduring groups of the 1960s.

Libro Spanish/English Piano Method, Level 1

Piano students of Latin American heritage often do not relate to the folk tunes that most methods use because the majority of those melodies do not flow with the rhythm of the Spanish language. This method is based on melodies original to the Mexican culture. These children's songs flow more naturally with the language, and in accord with the Kodály method of music education, give a better foundation for teaching basic musical elements in a Spanish language culture. Coupled with constant work on sight-reading, this new method is a valuable tool for native Spanish speakers in learning to play ...

Una invasión silenciosa

Libro Una invasión silenciosa

¿A qué suena la música que hoy está haciendo historia? El pianista islandés Ólafur Arnalds dijo una vez que en vez de elevar un puente sobre la música clásica y la popular, la verdadera misión era secar las aguas por debajo, y en cierta forma esa es la actitud que define el nuevo sonido en nuestro tiempo. Como en cualquier otra disciplina creativa, es un lugar común admitir que nada ha sucedido en la música desde los años setenta, y no es verdad. Una invasión silenciosa lo demuestra, y Javier Blánquez toma el testigo del reputado Alex Ross para explorar un terreno que en El...

Since it was first published in 1975, Mystery Train has cemented itself in the canon of great rock literature, offering one of the most astute, fascinating visions of the genre.
