Hearts on Fire is about the creative explosion in Canadian music of the early 2000s, which captured the world's attention in entirely new ways. The Canadian wave didn't just sweep over one genre or one city, it stretched from coast to coast, affecting large bands and solo performers, rock bands and DJs, and it connected to international scenes by capitalizing on new technology and old-school DIY methods.

In 1980, Jerry A. formed Poison Idea, a Portland-based punk band that gave voice to disaffected and disenfranchised youth for over thirty years.

Livet er skønt er skuespiller og sangeren Poul Bundgaards ærlige og nærværende erindringer. Bundgaard kigger tilbage på et langt og begivenhedsrigt liv, der bragte ham fra barndommen i Hellerup til landets største lærreder.

Få har sunget sig ind i danske familiers bevidsthed som Keld og Hilda Heick. Alligevel er de ofte blevet dømt ude af de gode selskab, men det har de taget med oprejst pande. I denne billedbiografi kommer vi helt på fornavn med det folkelige par, både gennem samtaler med journalist Marianne Tofte, og ved hjælp af private scrapbøger og billedalbum. Vi får historien om to lange og begivenhedsrige liv, om hvordan de sammenflettedes i de unge år, deres bryllup på trods af forældrenes misbilligelse, om barnet Anette, og om livet på landevejen.

This never-before-told "behind the screams" story of the Love Affair, the youngest group to have a number-one hit, may be fun and fascinating, but it is also a serious piece of rock music history, appealing to everyone who loved, or lived during, London’s swinging '60s. Patricia was the secret fiancée of Mick Jackson, bass player, and has catalogued his life in the group in astonishing detail. Coupled with a revealing, often humorous account of her own and Mick’s romance, this is an exceptional memoir.

Stell dir vor: Das vorige Jahrtausend, eine Jugend im Herzen des Ruhrgebiets. Zwischen Ruhrstadion und Cranger Kirmes, zwischen Fußball, Kino und Heavy Metal, in der Gruga- und der Westfalenhalle. Eine Zeit, in der du die Zeche Bochum rockst, Schauspiel-Ikone Tana Schanzara den auftritt-rettenden Parkplatz besorgst, Backstage mit KISS und Whitesnake abhängst, Chris Rea vor einem Auftritt auf dem Westfalenturm triffst, beinahe Fußballprofi wirst und in der Boxbude überraschend nicht aufs Maul kriegst. Geht nicht? Geht! Im Pott geht alles.

After thirty-five years as an “on-again, off-again, uncoached closet pianist,” poet and writer Robyn Sarah picked up the phone one day and called her old piano teacher, whom she had last seen in her early twenties. Music, Late and Soon is the story of her return to studying piano with the mentor of her youth. In tandem, she reflects on a previously unexamined musical past: a decade spent at Quebec’s Conservatoire de Musique, studying clarinet—ostensibly headed for a career as an orchestral musician, but already a writer at heart.

A volte, un solo momento può cambiare tutto. Basta una giornata di sole, la campagna che brilla, la voglia di dedicarsi a lavori di bricolage, lavorare al legno, a un vecchio carro che un tempo lontano era stato un calesse. L'incidente è improvviso. Il sangue, poi il dolore, la paura, lo shock. La corsa verso l'ospedale. La mano squarciata. La possibilità di non recuperarne l'uso. Ma che vuol dire perdere la funzionalità di una mano per un musicista? La stessa mano che ha sempre usato per suonare, comporre, creare?

"50 palos" es una reflexión, una charla amistosa que se alarga hasta la madrugada y en la que Pau escribió sin pelos en la lengua, a veces desde la euforia y otras desde la melancolía. En este audiolibro de memorias, que no son tales, hay sitio para hablar de sexo, amor y éxito musical. Pero también de suicidios, fracasos y diagnósticos aterradores. Es un audiolibro que da respuesta a muchas preguntas que le hicieron periodistas y que en su momento no quiso contestar.

A legendary folk singer and activist, Woody Guthrie and his songs changed the world. Born in an Oklahoma oil-boom town, Guthrie traveled America by boxcar, thumb, and foot. Along the journey, he composed and sang songs that have become a national heritage. His songs, however, are but part of his legacy. This remarkable autobiography brings to life both his vibrant personality and a vision of America we cannot afford to let die. Funny, cynical, and earthy, Bound for Glory is the stirring account of Guthrie's life and a superb portrait of America's Depression years.

Peter Doherty's is the last of the great rock 'n' roll stories—bad boy and public enemy. To his devoted fans, he is a cult hero, a modern-day Rimbaud. Musically, he has defined the past twenty years of indie rock with his sound, lyrics, lifestyle and aesthetic. Since The Libertines rose to international fame, Doherty has proved endlessly fascinating. A whirlwind of controversy and scandal has tailed him ever since the early 2000s, so much so that all too often his talents as a songwriter and performer have been overlooked; for every award and accolade, there is a scathing review.
