But from the first time GK (as he was nicknamed by Elvis) heard this kid sing, he knew that Elvis Presley was someone extraordinary. During Elvis’s rise to fame and throughout the wild swirl of his remarkable life, Klein was a steady presence and one of Elvis’s closest and most loyal friends until his untimely death in 1977.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In ＜em＞Elvis: My Best Man,＜/em＞ a heartfelt, entertaining, and long-awaited contribution to our understanding of Elvis Presley and the early days of rock ’n’ roll, George Klein writes with great affection for the friend he knew about who the King of Rock ’n’ Roll really was and how he acted when the stage lights were off.

From the good times at Graceland to hanging out with Hollywood stars to butting heads with Elvis’s iron-handed manager, Colonel Tom Parker, to making sure that Elvis’s legacy is fittingly honored, GK was a true friend of the King and a trailblazer in the music industry in his own right.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞I can claim to have enjoyed a satisfying and fulfilling medical career. British General Practice was the jewel in the NHS crown and I was a Family Doctor during its heyday before the Government decided to take control and tell the doctors how to do their job, demoralize the profession and seriously compromise patient care, destroying the respect between patients and their doctors and turning a vocation into a chore. I was fortunate that I began my career at the right time and got out at the right time. My almost thirty years working with the local police force was hard work but once I’d seen a few corpses and gained the respect of the local constabulary I enjoyed the work immensely even if I was so often denied a good night’s sleep. The case load varied from the gruesome to the amusing but looking back it was never boring.＜br /＞ Sex, Drugs and Rock 'n' Roll ? Memoir of a Police Doctor is an account of my experience as a Forensic Physician ? a facet of the rich tapestry of medical practice that Joe Public never realized existed.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Drummer's Widow【電子書籍】[ Joanna FitzPatrick ]

＜p＞The Drummer’s Widow by novelist, Joanna FitzPatrick, chronicles a woman facing life alone after losing her husband of thirty-five years. He was a famous drummer who traveled all over the world; she was his manager; they were inseparable; their partnership gave her life meaning. How could she live without him?＜/p＞ ＜p＞Facing a drawer full of unpaid bills and the increasing cost of maintaining a Tribeca loft, Marisa realizes that the income she derives from editing Random House romance novels is not enough to stay where the walls and shelves are filled with familiar art, family photos, performance posters, and decades of collected memorabilia. She has either to move to a small, cozy apartmentーher adult son’s suggestionーor rent out rooms. Choosing the latter and dismissing the risk of opening her home to a serial killer, Marisa rents to a tall, gel-spiked, orange-haired Goth named Cassandra and to Martin, an expelled-from-Juilliard, but extremely talented jazz guitarist. Cassandra purports to be a Pratt art student by day and a Bitter End bartender by night. In reality she is a singer running away from California, the fame of a glittering career, and a Svengali-like manager.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Martin hears Cassandra adding words to one of his compositions and singing one day and realizes she has a great deal more talent than any bartender/art student. Confronted, she confesses to her past life as the pop diva, “CiCi Belle,” and agrees to join Martin’s jazz band, eschewing her pop persona in favor of a Nina Simone style incarnation. Because of Marisa’s previous successful career in the music business, she and Martin ask her to manage them. Despite Marisa’s worries that her old promotion skills of plastering lampposts with band notices and knowing just the right impresario to call have been replaced by courting thousands of Facebook friends, tweeting to fan followers, and creating just the right material to go viral, she agrees.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Like never forgetting how to ride a bicycle, Marisa quickly spins into the world of promoting musicians with the skills and shrewdness that never left her and books “The Martin Starks Trio with special guest CiCi Belle” on a European tour ending up at the world famous Montreux Music Festival. How she, Martin, Cassandra, and all the back-up characters in this compelling and complex novel deal with the harmonies and discords along the way to fame makes The Drummer’s Widow a masterful yet unidealized view of those under the lights and those who stand in the wings.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Marisa discovers that she and Cassandra have much in common including their unwillingness to let go of their losses and move forward in their lives. Prior to taking on the challenge that Cassandra and Martin gave her, Marisa’s life after the death of her husband consisted of using the Yale Club library to edit bodice-ripping novels and the club gym to keep fit. With the exception of having to deal occasionally with some annoying members of her co-op building, she rebuffed most efforts of others trying to enter her life. She really wants to be a writer and finish the memoir of her Hollywood rock scene experience, entitled Sha La La. Marisa's deceased husband, Jules, stays with her in her mind and voices encouragement to push on. Cassandra's former manager and lover, Ryan, follows her, waiting for the opportunity to reclaim his valuable property. Just as the identity and uniqueness of a musician’s album is made up of many cuts with different timbres, shades, colors, and surprises, so too does FitzPatrick’s novel reveal the great work that is Marisa’s life. As Marisa grapples with her new independence, she discovers a hidden strength and a revival of the possibility “to find the treasure” in living.＜/p＞ ＜p＞An element of art following life underlies the story of The Drummer’s Widow. Joanna FitzPatrick was a screenwriter in Hollywood before working in the music industry. She worked with Bette Midler and managed The Manhattan Transfer before moving to New York to become the Managing Director of Gramavision Records, promoting jazz, blues and eclectic classical music. Her first husband was a famous lead guitarist of a ’60s rock n’ roll band and seven years after her divorce met her present husband of 32 years, a drummer and multiple myeloma cancer-survivor of 10 years. When asked about Joanna’s book, he laughs and says, “Yes, it’s true, she’s written a story about my death.” Infused with heart and a pitch-perfect attention to detail, The Drummer?s Widow will change the way you look at life, love, and everything in between.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Thirty Rooms to Hide In Insanity, Addiction, and Rock ‘n' Roll in the Shadow of the Mayo Clinic【電子書籍】[ Luke Longstreet Sullivan ]

＜p＞Author Luke Longstreet Sullivan has a simple way of describing his new memoir: “It’s like ＜em＞The Shining＜/em＞ . . . only funnier.” ＜em＞Thirty Rooms to Hide＜/em＞ ＜em＞In＜/em＞ tells the astonishing story of Sullivan’s father and his descent from one of the world’s top orthopedic surgeons at the Mayo Clinic to a man who is increasingly abusive, alcoholic, and insane, ultimately dying alone on the floor of a Georgia motel room. For his wife and six sons, the years prior to his death were characterized by turmoil, anger, and family dysfunction; but somehow they were also a time of real happiness for Sullivan and his brothers, full of dark humor and much laughter.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Through the 1950s and 1960s, the six brothers had a wildly fun and thoroughly dysfunctional childhood living in a forbidding thirty-room mansion, known as the Millstone, on the outskirts of Rochester, Minnesota. The many rooms of the immense home, as well as their mother’s loving protection, allowed the Sullivan brothers to grow up as normal, mischievous boys. Against a backdrop of the timesーthe Cold War, the Cuban Missile Crisis, fallout shelters, JFK’s assassination, and the Beatlesーthe cracks in their home life and their father’s psyche continue to widen. When their mother decides to leave the Millstone and move the family across town, the Sullivan boys are able to find solace in each other and in rock ’n’ roll.＜/p＞ ＜p＞As ＜em＞Thirty Rooms to Hide＜/em＞ ＜em＞In＜/em＞ follows the story of the Sullivan familyーat times grim, at others poignantーa wonderful, dark humor lifts the narrative. Tragic, funny, and powerfully evocative of the 1950s and 1960s, ＜em＞Thirty Rooms to Hide In＜/em＞ is a tale of public success and private dysfunction, personal and familial resilience, and the strange power of humor to give refuge when it is needed most, even if it can’t always provide the answers.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Never Mind the Botox【電子書籍】[ Mitch Stansbury ]

＜p＞We, four suburban forty-somethings, had all but ignored live music, proper live music, for twenty years - The Banshees, Buzzcocks and The Smiths happened so long ago that they might have been in a different life. Live music now was a mum from Doncaster pretending to be the blonde one from Abba, and we needed help. Thankfully, it came, as our children found indie-rock, and demanded to see it up close. A night at Wembley with The Killers kick-started a five year odyssey of seventy nights, a hundred bands, and all of this ? Superheroes in spandex, Viking Metallers in a strip-club, cross-dressing sax players, foam-parties, typewriter solos, half-eaten birds, demented babysitters, homicidal ticket-touts, terrifying body-art, the world’s laziest roadie, and of course, some dad-dancing. We’ve met an 80’s legend playing drums in a punk covers band, and been stalked by a masked man in a gay night-club. We’ve been derailed by the Pope, and insulted by a singer who then bought us all a drink, and even, briefly, had rock stars’ arse in our hands. Well, in my hands. Fleeting it may have been, but he hasn’t called, or even sent a text. Never Mind the Botox is a journey of mild, middle-aged rebellion, as once or twice a month, we try not to stand out in a crowd thirty years younger - we usually fail. Sometimes the children keep us company, others we leave them at home, but there is always, along the way, some fun to be had. And so what if we can’t hear the next morning. Old-people need rock’n’roll too.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】From the Inside A Backdrop to the Music of My Life【電子書籍】[ Russ DiBella ]

＜p＞In 1978, when music found its way into Russ DiBella’s life largely by way of external circumstances, a natural progression of sorts began to unfold which would eventually marry his affection for words with a nascent interest in drumming and lyric writing. What began as a teenage rite of passage ー his first rock concert ー would spawn a lifelong passion for all things music, manifesting itself in ways both deliberate and unanticipated. Part memoir and part backstage pass, From the Inside is actually written from the perspective of an outsider looking in ー although very often and surreptitiously from within. With a detailed history of how music became such an actively integral part of his life (even before an awareness of his parents’ unintended influence) and an in-depth, behind-the-scenes look at several concerts (to include a respectable gathering of drumsticks along the way), DiBella recounts with enthusiasm and occasional humility more than thirty years of experiences as admirer, accomplice and collector. Less a narrative about unofficial access to “rock stars,” From the Inside sneaks a peek behind the proverbial curtain to discover some of the inner workings of live concerts. Meeting drum techs, guitar techs and other assorted crew and band members and observing load-ins, soundchecks and even a few shows from the other side of the stage offers an intimate look at activities otherwise inaccessible to the typical concert-goer. Not wanting for moments of rock’n’roll flash, encounters with rockers Mick Jagger, Eddie Van Halen and Neil Peart as well as country artists Brad Paisley and Montgomery Gentry among many others provide additional insight and add elements of celebrity to this otherwise personal account. Clearly written with an appreciation both for music and those artists who’ve inspired, From the Inside is the story of a life examined through the lens of music.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

While the rest of his classmates are perfectly happy spending all their time and money at the local mall, Steven spends his days combing the aisles of local thrift stores, and listening to oldies.＜br /＞Steven first became fascinated by the missing musician one fateful day in eighth grade when a classmate had pointed out his uncanny resemblance to Ricky. Soon afterward, Steven becomes an avid fan. He watches every Ricky Stevenson documentary, buys every book or magazine about the star and relentlessly searches for original copies of Ricky’s records. Steven even tries to dress like Ricky because he figures looking like a teen idol could be the fastest route to attracting the prettiest girl in his English class.＜br /＞Rock’N’Roll in Locker Seventeen is a novel about what happens to Steven when he discovers what really happened to the missing star.
