Guitar Slingers and Backbeaters

33 1/3

At the dawn of the 21st century, the New York City indie rock scene emerged as a beacon of artistic innovation, capturing widespread attention. Within this vibrant milieu, Interpol's second album, Antics, stands out as a landmark release. Released in 2004, Antics initially received a spectrum of responses-acclaimed by fans yet somewhat dismissed by critics. Nevertheless, time has favored Antics, elevating it to a revered status among aficionados. Covering everything from its intricate musical craftsmanship to its innovative marketing, this book explores Interpol's creative evolution and the album's shift toward distinct singles while preserving its atmospheric essence. Highlighting Interpol's widespread appeal, especially in Latin America, this book examines their passionate fanbase and the cultural phenomena that emerged, showcasing the enduring bond between the band and their international audience. It also considers the global impact of Antics, underscoring the album's longevity and Interpol's role as architects of a sound that has resonated across borders and generations, cementing their place in the annals of modern music history.

A Little History of Music

From the Grammy-nominated folk singer and songwriter, "a treatise on making art." (Bust) Mary Gauthier was twelve years old when she was given her Aunt Jenny's old guitar and taught herself to play with a Mel Bay basic guitar workbook. Songs became lifelines to her, and she longed to write her own one day. Then, for a decade, while struggling with addiction, Gauthier put her dream away. Not until she got sober and went to an open mic with a friend did she realize that she not only still wanted to write songs, she needed to. Today, Gauthier is a decorated musical artist, with numerous awards and recognition for her songwriting, including a Grammy nomination. In Saved by a Song, Gauthier pulls the curtain back on the artistry of songwriting. Part memoir, part philosophy of art, part nuts and bolts of songwriting, her book celebrates the redemptive power of song to inspire and bring seemingly different kinds of people together.

A towering figure in music and film, Michel Legrand created some of the most creative and innovative film scores of the second half of the 20th century. The music of his most most successful collaborations -- masterpieces for films such as The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, The Thomas Crown Affair, Summer of '42, and Yentl -- is particularly memorable. As these scores and the stories behind their creation are, they represent one part of Legrand's genius. Over a career that spanned seven decades, Legrand composed the scores for 160 films, winning Oscars and Grammys along the way. Many of his songs have become standards covered by artists as diverse as Tony Bennett, Sarah Vaughan, Rufus Wainwright, and Sting. A prolific and highly versatile composer, Legrand worked with virtually every legendary figure in popular music and film from Maurice Chevalier to Barbra Streisand and from Orson Welles to Jean-Luc Godard. Still active in his late 80s, Legrand composed the score for Orson Welles's posthumously released movie, The Other Side of the Wind (2018). Just prior to his death at the age of 87, Legrand sat down with his longtime collaborator Stéphane Lerouge to recount, all the while intermingling present and past, many of the significant and memorable episodes from his life. He speaks of his triumphs but doesn't shy away from revealing rejections, fiascos, missed opportunities, creative insecurities and a nervous breakdown he experienced in Los Angeles at the height of his success. Throughout, he pays homage to the roles played by numerous artists he encountered on both sides of the Atlantic--jazz musicians, singers and lyricists, film directors and music composers, many of whom became his lifelong friends. Translated by Sam Taylor, this book shares Legrand's stories as told to Lerouge to English readers for the first time.

With Universal Mother, Sinead O'Connor explores childhood trauma and her experiences as a woman, mother, target of scorn, and ultimate phoenix. Released in the winter of 1994, Universal Mother was the first recorded work from O'Connor since her duo of protests in 1992 (Saturday Night Live, Madison Square Garden). The sadistic blowback she faced for publicly outing the child abuse of the Catholic Church and its cover-up would have destroyed most. Where Sinead might go next, or if she'd ever record again, was the question. It's a testament to her integrity and extraordinary courage that she was able to resurrect with this extraordinary album. The album takes us on a deeply personal, yet universal journey of womanhood, from the archetypal bad mother to the good and the kind. A feminist statement from Germaine Greer sets the tone, followed by O'Connor letting loose a storm of rage against her abusive mother in "Fire on Bablyon"-a salvo so explosive, it need not be repeated. Other than a song called "Red Football" and a call-out of the truth behind the Irish potato famine, O'Connor is not interested in rage or revenge. With Universal Mother, she offers us a tender, evocative collection of grief and empathy in song. Her miraculous voice is the vessel-the broken, sacred voice of Mother Ireland.

Der verwegenste Komponist des 20. Jahrhunderts: Mit Pistole im Schulterhalfter und frechem Humor sprengte George Antheil die Grenzen der Musik, während er mit Joyce, Pound und Picasso durch das Paris der 1920er feierte.

Wenn Flügel von der Decke hängen und Flugzeugpropeller den Konzertsaal in Aufruhr versetzen, wenn Erik Satie "Quel précision!" ruft, während das Publikum Stühle wirft - dann bist du mitten in George Antheils turbulenter Welt. Rainer Peters führt dich durch ein Leben voller unglaublicher Begegnungen, von Thomas Manns literarischen Anleihen bis zur Erfindung des Funkwechsel-Torpedos mit Hollywood-Diva Hedy Lamarr.

Diese faszinierende Destillation von Antheils legendärer Autobiografie "Bad Boy of Music" entlarvt die Grenzen zwischen Dichtung und Wahrheit in einem Leben, das selbst wie eine grandiose Komposition wirkt - voller Überraschungen, Skandale und genialer Einfälle.

Für Musik- und Kulturliebhaber*innen, die das wilde Herz der künstlerischen Avantgarde des 20. Jahrhunderts erleben möchten.

Albert Lortzings Musik zwischen Freimaurerlogen und Freiheitskampf: Eine vergessene Stimme der deutschen Demokratiegeschichte:
Der Komponist Albert Lortzing war mehr als nur ein biedermeierlicher Unterhaltungskünstler. Seine Opern verhandelten die Konflikte seiner Zeit - Macht und Freiheit, soziale Ungerechtigkeit und persönliches Glück - mit bemerkenswertem politischem Gespür. Stefan Lüddemann enthüllt die wenig bekannte Seite des Komponisten als aktiven Freimaurer, dessen humanistische Ideale von Brüderlichkeit und Menschenwürde sein gesamtes Werk durchziehen.
Von der Überwachungsgesellschaft in "Zar und Zimmermann" bis zur revolutionären "Regina" analysiert Lüddemann Lortzings Opern als kluge Reflexionen über Freiheit und ihre Grenzen. In einer Zeit, in der die offene Gesellschaft erneut unter Druck steht, erweist sich Lortzings Werk als erstaunlich aktuell.
Für Musik- und Geschichtsinteressierte, die einen unterschätzten Wegbereiter deutscher Demokratiebewegungen neu entdecken möchten.

The once derided musical hybrid that is 1970s Jazz Fusion has since become one of the most influential genres of music in jazz, rock, soul, and hip-hop. The once derided musical hybrid that is 1970s Jazz Fusion has since become one of the most influential genres of music in jazz, rock, soul, and hip-hop. This book is a celebration of one of the most adventurous but unappreciated eras in popular music, wherein the traditional sounds of jazz were melded and mashed up with funk, soul, hard rock, and electronics. Even as they were accused of selling out and contaminating traditional jazz, artists like Miles Davis, Weather Report, Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, and the Mahavishnu Orchestra made some of the most creative and invigorating music of the era. Full of the musicians' personal stories and anecdotes, this book provides a discussion of their albums and the cultural context for their music. That context also includes how these albums have been passed down through generations and have reverberated through the music of today, inspiring both hip-hop and electronic artists through sampling and contemporary jazz and soul artists who are less constrained by traditional genres. Though recorded decades ago, jazz fusion remains culturally vital and sonically thrilling to this very day.
