Excerpt: Orphans: Brawlers, Bawlers & Bastards is a limited edition three CD set by Tom Waits, released by the ANTI- label on November 17, 2006 in Europe and on November 21, 2006 in the United States. The set is a collection of 24 rare and 30 brand new songs. Each disc is intended to be a separate collection in itself; the first disc with the more roughcut rock and blues cuts, the second the more melancholy tunes and ballads, and the third disc having the more experimental songs and spoken word pieces. Although the liner notes claim "56 songs, of which 30 are new", there are only 14 songs on the collection which can readily be found on other albums. Waits has described the collection as A lot of songs that fell behind the stove while making dinner, about 60 tunes that we collected. Some are from films, some from compilations. Some is stuff that didn't fit on a record, things I recorded in the garage with kids. Oddball things, orphaned tunes. The Orphans Tour was conducted in support of the album prior to its release. On the decision to organize the songs into three themed albums, under the titles Brawlers, Bawlers and Bastards, Waits said in interview: It was just a big pile of songs. It's like having a whole lot of footage for a film. It needs to be arranged in a meaningful way so it will be a balanced listening experience. You have this big box with all these things in it and it doesn't really have any meaning until it's sequenced. It took some doing. There's a thematic divide, and also pacing and all that. There are different sources to all these songs and they were written at different times. Making them work together is the trick...http://booksllc.net/?id=6529527 ... Read more

Excerpt: Jerome John "Jerry" Garcia (August 1, 1942 - August 9, 1995) was an American musician best known for his lead guitar work, singing and songwriting with the band the Grateful Dead. Though he vehemently disavowed the role, Garcia was viewed by many as the leader or "spokesman" of the group. One of its founders, Garcia performed with The Grateful Dead for their entire three-decade career (1965-1995). Garcia also founded and participated in a variety of side projects, including the Saunders-Garcia Band with longtime friend Merl Saunders, Jerry Garcia Band, Old and in the Way, the Garcia/Grisman acoustic duo, and Legion of Mary. Garcia co-founded the New Riders of the Purple Sage with John Dawson and David Nelson. He also released several solo albums, and contributed to a number of albums by other artists over the years as a session musician. He was well known by many for...http://booksllc.net/?id=75758 ...

Excerpt: Thomas Alan "Tom" Waits (born December 7, 1949) is an American singer-songwriter, composer and actor. Waits has a distinctive voice, described by critic Daniel Durchholz as sounding "like it was soaked in a vat of bourbon, left hanging in the smokehouse for a few months, and then taken outside and run over with a car." With this trademark growl, his incorporation of pre-rock music styles such as blues, jazz, and vaudeville, and experimental tendencies verging on industrial music, Waits has built up a distinctive musical persona. He has worked as a composer for movies and musical plays and as a supporting actor in films, including Down By Law and Bram Stoker's Dracula. He was nominated for an Academy Award for his soundtrack work on One from the Heart. Lyrically, Waits' songs frequently present atmospheric portrayals of grotesque, often seedy characters and places although he has also shown a penchant for more conventional ballads. He has a cult following and has influenced subsequent songwriters despite having little radio or music video support. His songs are best-known to the general public in the form of cover versions by more visible artists: "Jersey Girl," performed by Bruce Springsteen and "Downtown Train," performed by Rod Stewart. Although Waits' albums have met with mixed commercial success in his native United States, they have occasionally achieved gold album...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=30519 ... Read more

Extrait : Marilyn Monroe, de son vrai nom Norma Jeane Mortenson, est une actrice et chanteuse américaine née le 1 juin 1926 à Los Angeles (Californie) et morte le 5 août 1962 dans la même ville. Elle se destine initialement au mannequinat avant d'être repérée par Howard Hughes et de signer son premier contrat avec la 20th Century Fox en 1947. Au début des années 1950 elle accède au statut de star hollywoodienne et à celui de sex-symbol. Ses grands succès incluent Les hommes préfèrent les blondes, Sept ans de réflexion ou encore Certains l'aiment chaud qui lui vaut le Golden Globe de la meilleure actrice dans une comédie en 1960. En dépit de son immense notoriété, sa vie privée est un échec et sa carrière la laissera insatisfaite. Les causes de sa mort demeurent l'objet de vives spéculations : surdosage de somnifères ou assassinat politique. En 1999, l'American Film Institute l'a distinguée comme la sixième plus grande actrice américaine de tous les temps dans le classement . Marilyn Monroe en 1945.Marilyn Monroe naît le 1 juin 1926 à l'hôpital général de Los Angeles en Californie, sous le nom de Norma Jeane Mortenson.

Commentary (music and lyrics not included).Chapters: Jersey Girl, Heartattack and Vine, Downtown Train, Ol' '55, I Hope That I Don't Fall in Love With You, the Piano Has Been Drinking. Source: Wikipedia. Pages: 22. Not illustrated. Free updates online. Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: from the album Heartattack and Vine "Jersey Girl" is a song composed and originally sung by American singer-songwriter Tom Waits from his 1980 album Heartattack and Vine. It subsequently became best known in a live version by Bruce Springsteen in the 1980s. Waits wrote the song with his future wife Kathleen Brennan, who had been living in New Jersey. It's one of Waits' most tender songs, and captures a feeling of romantic longing despite its somewhat gritty details. Waits would state in a 1980 interview that, "I never thought I would catch myself saying 'sha la la' in a song ... This is my first experiment with 'sha la la.'" Waits' recording includes drums, bass, guitar, keyboards, and glockenspiel, in an arragement that captures the feeling of the seashore by way of "Under the Boardwalk" or "Spanish Harlem". Rock writer Stephen Holden saw echoes of Springsteen in "Jersey Girl" even before Springsteen ever performed it, and, writing for Rolling Stone, said that the song's "eager romanticism becomes warped in the caldron of what's left of Waits' voice," en route to "morbid pathos". The song is also included on Waits' compilation albums Bounced Checks (1981), Anthology of Tom Waits (1985), and Used Songs, 1973-1980 (2001). Waits also included a quiet performance of it during his 1999 appearance on VH1 Storytellers. The song is most known as performed by Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band and released as the B-side of his 1984 hit single "Cover Me". Springsteen introduced the song in July 1981 during the encores of a special River To...http://booksllc.net/?id=6401518 ... Read more

Extrait : Sir James Paul McCartney MBE (né le 18 juin 1942 à Liverpool, en Angleterre) est un auteur-compositeur, chanteur et multi-instrumentiste britannique, bassiste des Beatles, de 1957 à 1970, puis fondateur du groupe Wings, de 1971 à 1981.

Après la séparation du groupe en 1970, McCartney lance deux albums en solo (McCartney et Ram), puis forme le groupe Wings avec sa femme Linda McCartney et un ancien membre des Moody Blues, Denny Laine. Ce groupe voit passer plusieurs musiciens dans ses rangs durant ses années d'activité, avant de se dissoudre en 1981. Par la suite, McCartney poursuit sa carrière en solo, ininterrompue depuis, tournant dans le monde entier avec son groupe en interprétant ses plus grands succès composés ou co-composés depuis près de cinquante ans.
