Trev goes into his doctor’s office, comfortable for he is 15 years removed from the rock scene. He sits down and waits his turn along with many others because the waiting room is, of course, crowded. The Medical assistant comes to the door and announces who she wants next. "Sonny Glassburg" she says. Trev stands up and starts to walk toward her, reacting to one of his Alias names he used to go by back in the day. You know, Sonny, a good guy name and who in their right mind would be a Glassburg? And it’s an automatic thing now... But he is met with another, - turns out blue eyed beautiful gal. She gets up as he does- they end up meeting each other face to face, and time freezes. She saw him rise. She saw him move toward the med assistant when she called her name. Is this guy going to butt in front of me? She should be reacting- throwing a fit- she has been waiting, and he should have to wait his turn too----------- but she can't because she is suddenly so drawn into him. He starts to blush, having no intention of butting, realizing his mistake of an automatic reaction and not thinking. It just happened, and here stood before him was a woman. A woman sporting ---- a Roundabout shirt. The med assistant stands there patiently- seeing the chemical reaction between the two............. _______________________________________ The imagination- what a wonderful thing. Song Lyrics- HE wanted to give you an outline to start you off. However, I find as one gets older, your inner child starts to fade. So, I write, coloring in the outline and fill it with my words to help you find your imagination once again. And then, give that to you in these books. You get to spend time with that ONE who wrote the lyrics, if only in words, for the amount of time it takes you to read. Light romance, comedy, suspense where HE is your hero or YOU, his. I hope I am helpful.

“A music-snob’s dream come true . . . One of the best multi-subject music books to come down the pike in years . . . a fresh and deeply informed approach.” —Variety A great cover only makes a song stronger.

This is the first book to explore the most iconic covers ever, from Elvis’s “Hound Dog” and Joe Cocker’s “With a Little Help from My Friends” to the Talking Heads’ “Take Me to the River” and Adele’s “Make You Feel My Love.” Written by the founder of the website covermesongs.com, each of the nineteen chapters investigates the origins of a classic cover—and uses it as a framework to tell the larger story of how cover songs have evolved over the decades. Cover Me is packed with insight, photography, and music history. “Delves into the complicated legacy of artists performing other people’s music . . . his research adds fresh context and intriguing background to many of these songs . . . Astute ruminations on evolving cultural perceptions of the cover’s place in the music canon.” —AV Club “This engaging nostalgia trip is sure to appeal to discophiles and cultural historians.” —Library Journal
Alfred Busi lives alone in his villa overlooking the waves. Famed in his tiny Mediterranean town for his music, he is mourning the recent death of his wife and quietly living out his days. Then one night, Busi is viciously attacked by an intruder in his own courtyard—bitten and scratched. He insists his assailant was neither man nor animal. Soon, Busi’s account of what happened is being embellished to fan the flames of old rumor—of an ancient race of people living in the surrounding forest. It is also used to spark new controversy, inspiring claims that something must finally be done about the town’s poor, whose numbers have been growing. In trademark crystalline prose, Jim Crace portrays a man taking stock of his life and looking into an uncertain future, while bearing witness to a community in the throes of great change.
Each of Jimi Hendrix's recorded songs is explored, dissected and celebrated.
AUM—Omnipotent Force Propelling Souls toward Spirit We have all heard of the sacred word AUM, and heard it chanted as a mantra by meditators. But what is AUM, and what does it signify? Author Joseph Cornell, of Sharing Nature and Flow Learning, in AUM: The Melody of Love takes readers on a journey into the deeper teachings of AUM and the blissful realizations that await those who access this expansive sound vibration. Seek the sound that never ceases. The winds of God's grace constantly flow into this world through Holy AUM. The Sacred Sound has many names, and mystics of all religions revere it. Just as light is intrinsic to a lighted lamp, the sound of AUM is integral to the presence of Spirit. God's nature is bliss, and to share His joy, He created the universe through Cosmic Vibration. The sound of the Cosmic Vibration is AUM, and listening to it brings the greatest bliss imaginable. It's the sacred, inner fire. As you approach the cosmic blaze, you feel at first its radiant, soothing comfort; then, as you come closer—AUM's liberating flames consume you—and bring you to God.
Some of the world’s best-loved songs have had remarkable origins. Had Robert Burns not heard an old man sing a quavering version of an ancient Scottish country song, we would never have had ‘Auld Lang Syne’. Miss Jane Ross wrote down the tune she heard played by a piper at an Irish village fair in 1855. Had she not done so, the rest of the world would not have heard ‘Danny Boy’. Marie Antoinette heard a peasant nurse sing an obscure lullaby to her princely son. The empress’s unexpected promotion of the song resulted in its now being listed by The Guinness Book of Records as one of the three most familiar songs in the world.Love Me Tender tells the remarkable stories behind 40 popular and traditional songs. Some evolved from folksongs, some are from musical theatre, while others hit the mark because a particular recording appeared at just the right time. In some cases, one word made all the difference: Paul McCartney composed a tune but could only think of the words ‘scrambled eggs’ to fit it, but fortunately he later came up with the perfect solution – ‘Yesterday’. In a book full of surprises and curiosities, Max Cryer reveals stories from all around the world, and from artists as diverse as Marlene Dietrich, Bing Crosby, Judy Garland and Elton John. This truly fascinating book makes enthralling reading.
