High On Rebellion

by Yvonne Sewall-Ruskin, High On Rebellion Books available in Docs, PDF, EPUB, Mobi, Textbook, Kindle Format. Download High On Rebellion book, The definitive oral history—with a foreword by Lou Reed—of the center of New York’s 1960s and ’70s underground culture. From its opening in December 1965 on Park Avenue South, Max’s Kansas City, a hybrid restaurant, bar, nightclub, and art gallery, was the boisterous meeting spot for famous—or soon-to-be-famous—figures in New York’s underground art, music, literary, film, and fashion scenes. Max’s regulars included Andy Warhol (and his superstars such as Viva, Ultra Violet, Edie Sedgwick, Gerard Malanga, Holly Woodlawn, and Candy Darling), Mick Jagger, Lou Reed, Patti Smith, Allen Ginsberg, William Burroughs, David Bowie, Iggy Pop, Bob Dylan, Jane Fonda, and dozens more. A hotbed of drugs, sex, and creative collaboration, Max’s was the place to see and be seen among the city’s cultural elite for nearly two decades. With reminiscences from the likes of Alice Cooper, Bebe Buell, Betsey Johnson, Leee Black Childers, Holly Woodlawn, and John Chamberlain, along with Max’s owner Mickey Ruskin and several waitresses and bartenders, this vivid oral history evokes an unforgettable place where a spontaneous striptease, a brawl over the meaning of art, and an early performance by the Velvet Underground were all possibilities on any given night. High on Rebellion dazzles with rare photos and other Max’s memorabilia, and firsthand accounts of legendary nights, chance encounters, romances sparked and extinguished, and stars being born.

The Virgin Encyclopedia Of Seventies Music

by Colin Larkin, The Virgin Encyclopedia Of Seventies Music Books available in Docs, PDF, EPUB, Mobi, Textbook, Kindle Format. Download The Virgin Encyclopedia Of Seventies Music book, The aim of this book is to provide a complete handbook of information and opinion about the history of the music of the 1970s. There are over 1000 entries on the bands, musicians, songwriters, producers and record labels of this decade, everyone who had any significant impact on the development of rock and pop music. From the stars who, unlike Hendrix, Joplin and Morrison, survived the sixties only to be dudded as dinosaurs, to the angry reactions of punk and the new wave and the sounds of glam rock and disco, this encylopaedia aims to answer any query about any aspect of seventies music. As well as the giants of the decade, such as Queen, Abba and Fleetwood Mac, the book also includes those artists who only flourished briefly.

Images Of The Child

by Harry Edwin Eiss, Images Of The Child Books available in Docs, PDF, EPUB, Mobi, Textbook, Kindle Format. Download Images Of The Child book, This collection of articles on images of the child offers an excellent range of perspectives on an equally wide range of concerns, including advertising, girls' book series, rap music, realistic fiction, games, dolls, violence, and movies. Taken together as a book, this collection confirms the complexity of the world of childhood, and demonstrates how strongly images of the child reflect the entire culture. For example, in the traditional nursery rhyme: Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall; / Humpty Dumpty had a great fall; / All the king's horses and all the king's men; / Couldn't put Humpty together again. Father Gander, a popular rewriting of the traditional nursery rhymes meant to remove what some highly vocal adults see as negative sexual, classist, and violent images, changes it: Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall; / Humpty Dumpty had a great fall; / All of the horses, the women and men; / Helped put Humpty together again. In the meantime, a current playground version goes: Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall; / Humpty Dump had a great fall; / All the king's horses and all the king's men; / Stepped on him. Thus, the images of the child become ever more elusive. What does the future hold?
