Candle Burning

Questlove, the five-time Grammy Award winner and visionary drummer of The Roots, takes readers on a decade-by-decade journey from 1971 to the present. In this New York Times bestseller, he explores how the melodies of our lives are inextricably linked to the shifts in our politics, our culture, and our collective identity.A history of the last half-century and an intimate conversation with one of music's most influential and original voices, Music Is History is a singular look at contemporary America.Questlove finds the hidden connections in the American tapestry, whether investigating how the Blaxploitation era reshaped Black identity or considering the way disco took an assembly line approach to Black genius. And these critical inquiries are complemented by his own memories as a music fan, and how his appetite for pop culture taught him about America.The narrative is fueled by Questlove's singular perspective as a musician, producer, and cultural omnivore. He blends personal anecdotes with rigorous historical analysis, questioning which stories we tell about the past and which voices have been traditionally sidelined in the canon of American music.This exploration is essential for anyone who believes that a playlist can be a manifesto. It is a vibrant, challenging, and deeply personal account of how we have arrived at the present moment, one beat at a time. Questlove invites you to listen closer and see the world as a symphony of intersecting histories."An entertaining, informative and far-reaching work, meticulously excavating American culture and history with the eye of a seasoned cratedigger." -The Washington Post

A New York Times bestseller, Music Is History combines multi-Grammy Award winner Questlove’s deep musical expertise with his curiosity about history, examining America over the past fifty years. Questlove finds the hidden connections in the American tapestry, whether investigating how the blaxploitation era reshaped Black identity or considering the way disco took an assembly line approach to Black genius. And these critical inquiries are complemented by his own memories as a music fan, and the way his appetite for pop culture taught him about America. A history of the last half-century and an intimate conversation with one of music’s most influential and original voices, Music Is History is a singular look at contemporary America. “An entertaining, informative and far-reaching work, meticulously excavating American culture and history with the eye of a seasoned cratedigger.” —The Washington Post

In this follow-up to Clanlands Sam &amp; Graham document their journey across New Zealand, a country Graham calls home and that Sam has longed to visit since learning it was a popular destination for Scottish immigrants to settle back in the 19th century. Follow the 'outlandish' pair as they explore the Scottish influence of New Zealand: connecting with the rich culture and Scottish heritage, sampling world-class food &amp; drink, and being humbled by incredible landscapes and pulse-raising activities. All of this accompanied (of course!) by a healthy side of Sam torturing his faithful travel companion, Graham. Told in the pair's characteristic bantering style, Clanlands 2 promises to be an informative and entertaining deep dive into a much-loved country... and yet another unforgettable wild adventure.

*With a foreword by Sir Peter Jackson* Buckle up, grab a dram, and get ready for another unforgettable wild ride. They're back! Stars of Outlander, Sam Heughan and Graham McTavish are no strangers to the rugged beauty of Scotland. But this time they're setting their sights on a new horizon: New Zealand. Join our intrepid Scotsmen on their latest epic adventure across The Land of the Long White Cloud in this thrilling follow-up to Clanlands. Setting out to explore a country that Graham calls home, and that Sam has longed to visit, these sturdy friends immerse themselves in all that New Zealand has to offer: stunning landscapes, rich history, world-class food and drink, and - much to Graham's mounting anxiety and Sam's deep satisfaction - famously adrenaline-fuelled activities! As ever there's not nearly enough space in their trusty camper van and with plenty of good-natured competition and tormenting to go around, Sam and Graham's friendship is put to the test once again. Along the way we learn about the length and breadth of this jewel of the Southern Seas, exploring the fascinating story of its people while testing the very limits of Graham's sanity. Like the very best buddy movie sequel, this latest instalment is full of unforgettable experiences and loveable characters and promises to be an even more memorable ride with two of the most entertaining travel companions around. So, say goodbye to your inhibitions and kia ora to New Zealand like you've never seen it before.

‘This collection of timeless photographs gives us an up close inside look at this uniquely complex man and brilliant iconic artist who forever changed the world. One love…’ – Lenny KravitzRebel Music is a tribute to one of the greatest legends in world music, Bob Marley. In 1975, Kate Simon first photographed Bob Marley and the Wailers at the Lyceum in London, where the now-legendary live performance of ‘No Woman No Cry’ was recorded. They then collaborated throughout the Seventies, with Simon shooting some of the most intimate, enduring and emblematic images ever taken of Marley, including his iconic Kaya album cover.Simon captured it all: portraits of the reggae greats of the Seventies, such as Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry, Bunny Wailer and Peter Tosh; the Exodus Tour, on the road with Bob Marley and The Wailers as they performed across Europe; and the One Love Peace Concert, where Bob famously united Jamaica’s opposing political leaders. Ultimately, in 1981, Simon would ride with the funeral cortege from Kingston to St Ann and Bob Marley’s final resting place.Rebel Music contains over 400 photographs from Simon’s archives, many published here for the first time. Introduced by Patti Smith, with a foreword by Lenny Kravitz and afterword by Keith Richards, a cast of 24 contributors join Simon in sharing the stories behind the images, including ex-Wailers guitarist Junior Marvin and bass player and band leader Aston ‘Family Man’ Barrett; musicians such as Junior Delgado, Steve Jordan, Paul Simonon and Bruce Springsteen; filmmaker Don Letts and producer Danny Sims; and Island Records founder, Chris Blackwell.

Rebel Music: Bob Marley & Roots Reggae

"A major new look at Africa's influence on European culture and how colonization remade Africa in the image of a medieval Europe. Virgil. Chaucer. Petrarch. These names resonate with many as cornerstones of European culture. Yet, in Atlas's Bones, D. Vance Smith reveals that much of what is claimed as European culture up to the Middle Ages-its great themes in literature, its sources in political thought, its religious beliefs-originated in the writings of African thinkers like Augustine, Fulgentius, and Martianus Capella, or Europeans who thought extensively about Africa. In fact, a third of Virgil's Aeneid takes place in Africa. Francis Petrarch believed his most important achievement was his epic Africa; while Geoffrey Chaucer wrote repeatedly about the figures of Scipio Africanus, actually two different men who defeated and destroyed Carthage. Smith tells the story of how Europe created a false "medieval" version of Africa to acquire resources and power during the era of imperialism and colonialism. The first half of the book, "Reading Africa," traces Egypt's, Libya's, and Carthage's influence on classical and medieval thinking about Africa, highlighting often ignored literary and legendary traditions, for example, that Alexander the Great named himself the son of an African god. The second part, "Writing Africa," focuses on how the different cultures of the two great African cities-Carthage and Alexandria-shaped medieval literary criticism and political theology and examines the cross-influences of modern anthropology, medieval studies, and colonial law. Atlas's Bones firmly re-establishes the significance of Africa in European intellectual history. It will be essential reading for anyone seeking to understand how much of Africa informs our artistic and cultural world"--

 Julia Wadhawans Vater kommt aus Indien, nur Inder will er keiner sein. Zu Hause spricht er Deutsch, liebt Schnitzel und gibt seiner Tochter zu verstehen: Wir sind eine ganz normale, deutsche Familie. Doch das sehen nicht alle so. Zwischen den Zuschreibungen der anderen entwickelt Julia eine Abneigung gegen jede Form von Gruppenzugehörigkeit - bis sie als Journalistin nach Indien reist und das Land sie zwingt, sich zu positionieren. Entlang von Hautfarbe, Religion und Herkunft zeigt die Autorin globale Strukturen auf, die unsere Selbst- und Fremdwahrnehmung mehr bestimmen als Nationalitäten. »Sag mir nicht, wer ich bin« ist das persönliche und engagierte Plädoyer dafür, Vielfalt zuzulassen und dabei Haltung zu finden.
