There's nothing cool about Céline Dion, and nothing clever. That's part of her appeal as an object of love or hatred - with most critics and committed music fans taking pleasure (or at least geeky solace) in their lofty contempt. This book documents Carl Wilson's brave and unprecedented year-long quest to find his inner Céline Dion fan, and explores how we define ourselves in the light of what we call good and bad, what we love and what we hate.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"expandHeader accFont\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eContributor Bio(s)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"desc_contributorbio082642788X-arrow\" class=\"columnSpaced icon-drop-up-icon-01 iconDropDown\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" onclick=\"javascript:toggleLayer('desc_contributorbio082642788X');\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column icon-glasses-icon iconSVG enhancedGlasses\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" onclick=\"showModalExcerpt('082642788X','desc_contributorbio082642788X-content');\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"desc_contributorbio082642788X-content\" class=\"expandContent\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctable data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"contribBio\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCarl Wilson is the music critic at\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSlate\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eand also writes for\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Globe and Mail\u003c\/i\u003e,\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHazlitt\u003c\/i\u003e,\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe New York Times Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eand many other online and print publications.

It was the first Brian Eno album to be composed almost completely in the confines of a recording studio, over a scant few months in the summer of 1975. The album was a proof of concept for Eno's budding ideas of \"the studio as musical instrument,\" and a signpost for a bold new way of thinking about music. In this book, Geeta Dayal unravels Another Green World's abundant mysteries, venturing into its dense thickets of sound. How was an album this cohesive and refined formed in such a seemingly ad hoc way? How were electronics and layers of synthetic treatments used to create an album so redolent of the natural world? How did a deck of cards figure into all of this? Here, through interviews and archival research, she unearths the strange story of how Another Green World formed the link to Eno's future -- foreshadowing his metamorphosis from unlikely glam rocker to sonic painter and producer.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"expandHeader accFont\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"desc_contributorbio0826427863-arrow\" class=\"columnSpaced icon-drop-up-icon-01 iconDropDown\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" onclick=\"javascript:toggleLayer('desc_contributorbio0826427863');\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column icon-glasses-icon iconSVG enhancedGlasses\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" onclick=\"showModalExcerpt('0826427863','desc_contributorbio0826427863-content');\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"desc_contributorbio0826427863-content\" class=\"expandContent\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctable data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"contribBio\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGeeta Dayal's writing on music, visual art, and science has appeared in many major publications, including\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBookforum\u003c\/em\u003e,\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Wire\u003c\/em\u003e,\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/em\u003e,\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe International Herald-Tribune\u003c\/em\u003e, and\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Village Voice\u003c\/em\u003e.

David Bowie is holed up in his Bel-Air mansion, drifting into drug-induced paranoia and confusion. Obsessed with black magic and the Holy Grail, he's built an altar in the living room and keeps his fingernail clippings in the fridge. There are occasional trips out to visit his friend Iggy Pop in a mental institution. His latest album is the cocaine-fuelled Station To Station (Bowie: \"I know it was recorded in LA because I read it was\"), which welds R\u0026amp;B rhythms to lyrics that mix the occult with a yearning for Europe, after three mad years in the New World. Bowie has long been haunted by the angst-ridden, emotional work of the Die Brucke movement and the Expressionists. Berlin is their spiritual home, and after a chaotic world tour, Bowie adopts this city as his new sanctuary.

Few songwriters before Dylan or since have combined so effectively the intensely personal with the spectacularly universal. In \"Like a Rolling Stone,\" his gleeful excoriation of Miss Lonely (Edie Sedgwick? Joan Baez? a composite \"type\"?) fuses with the evocation of a hip new zeitgeist to produce a veritable anthem. In \"Ballad of a Thin Man,\" the younger generation's confusion is thrown back in the Establishment's face, even as Dylan vents his disgust with the critics who labored to catalogue him. And in \"Desolation Row,\" he reaches the zenith of his own brand of surrealist paranoia, that here attains the atmospheric intensity of a full-fledged nightmare. Between its many flourishes of gallows humor, this is one of the most immaculately frightful songs ever recorded, with its relentless imagery of communal executions, its parade of fallen giants and triumphant local losers, its epic length and even the mournful sweetness of Bloomfield's flamenco-inspired fills. In this book, Mark Polizzotti examines just what makes the songs on Highway 61 Revisited so affecting, how they work together as a suite, and how lyrics, melody, and arrangements combine to create an unusually potent mix. He blends musical and literary analysis of the songs themselves, biography (where appropriate) and recording information (where helpful). And he focuses on Dylan's mythic presence in the mid-60s, when he emerged from his proletarian incarnation to become the American Rimbaud. The comparison has been made by others, including Dylan, and it illuminates much about his mid-sixties career, for in many respects Highway 61 is rock 'n' roll's answer to A Season in Hell.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"expandHeader accFont\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"columnSpaced icon-drop-up-icon-01 iconDropDown\" id=\"desc_contributorbio0826417752-arrow\" onclick=\"javascript:toggleLayer('desc_contributorbio0826417752');\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column icon-glasses-icon iconSVG enhancedGlasses\" onclick=\"showModalExcerpt('0826417752','desc_contributorbio0826417752-content');\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"expandContent\" id=\"desc_contributorbio0826417752-content\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"contribBio\"\u003eMark Polizzotti's previous books include the collaborative novel\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eS.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e(1991),\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eLautréamont Nomad\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e(1994),\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eRevolution of the Mind: The Life of André Breton\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e(1995),\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe New Life: Poems\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e(1998), and a study of Luis Buñuel's\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eLos Olvidados\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003efor the British Film Institute (2006).

For a young music fan, it's frustrating: no one tours there, cool people leave, etc. So when you run into something like The Replacements' seminal Let It Be, it's akin to water in the desert. If you're Meloy, leader of the Decembrists, it can change the direction of your life. This book won't tell you much about Let it Be or The Replacements, but it well conveys the grip that something like \"Sixteen Blue\" can have on a person- and why. When Paul Westerberg singe \"Meet me anyplace or anywhere or anytime\" in \"I Will Dare,\" it can resonate like a call in the dark. Meloy recounts finding a shrine in the band at the 400 Club in Minneapolis in 2003, and his reaction is priceless. A great record becomes an active, emotional experience that stays with you forever. For Meloy, it helped in setting the course of his future, and he expresses how and why in a compelling, engaging style.\" The Big Takeover\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"quoteReview\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"quoteReview\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\"Willed or not, Meloy seems vulnerable in Let It Be, the 16th entry of 33 1\/3's essays on really important albums series. The books typically boast chip-on-shoulder critical rigor; by contrast, Meloy reduces Let It Be to a small but crucial role in his own coming-of-age memoir. First reounting his purchase of the album as a grade-schooler, Meloy then concentrates on his punky, homoerotic adolescence in cornfed, homophobic Montana. In each anecdote, Let It Be plays deus ex machina, swooping down to rescue the young Meloy from his identity crises. These are solid short-short stories with bona fide epiphanies--that they shed light on Meloy's past only makes them more engaging.\" --Nick Sylvester, Village Voice, 1\/11\/05 -Nick Sylvester \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"quoteReview\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"quoteReview\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\"Meloy is a student of fiction and his imaginative songs for The Decemberists document just that. But here, Meloy treats his affiliation with Let It Be as a metaphor for youth, his experience surrounding it almost a bildungsroman-all through the use of memoir. Meloy's voice is similar to that of David Sedaris, finding comedy in small things, finding uplift in sadness. In Meloy's remembrances we recall what it is to discover music, to fall in love with it (as many of us did before we fell in love with people, leaving the music of our youth our only true first love). This one's a keeper. --Zack Adcock, The Hub Weekly, 1\/13\/05\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Continuum","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39545735282743,"sku":"9780826416339","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0086\/6218\/8087\/files\/new-book-let-it-be-33-1-3-paperback-31003701870647.jpg?v=1707931932"},{"product_id":"the-rolling-stones-exile-on-main-st-33-13","title":"The Rolling Stones' Exile on Main St. (33 1\/3)  - Paperback","description":"The Rolling Stones' Exile on Main St. (33 1\/3)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Janovitz, Bill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePublication Date: 02\/19\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eJanowitz (singer, guitarist, songwriter) uses personal accounts and interviews to explore the historical and social context in which this seminal rock album by the Rolling Stones was created.

With a rolled-up red kerchief around his head and heavy black boots under his faded jeans, Springsteen looked like the character of the song, and from the very first line (\"Born down in a dead man's town\") he sang with the throat-scraping desperation of a man with his back against the wall. When he reached the crucial lines, though, the guitars and bass dropped out and Weinberg switched to just the hi-hat. Springsteen's voice grew a bit more private and reluctant as he sang, \"Nowhere to run. Nowhere to go.\" It was as if he weren't sure if this were an admission of defeat or the drawing of a line in the sand. But when the band came crashing back at full strength-building a crescendo that fell apart in the cacophony of Springsteen's and Weinberg's wild soloing, paused and then came together again in the determined, marching riff-it was clear that the singer was ready to make a stand.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"expandHeader accFont\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"columnSpaced icon-drop-up-icon-01 iconDropDown\" id=\"desc_contributorbio0826416616-arrow\" onclick=\"javascript:toggleLayer('desc_contributorbio0826416616');\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column icon-glasses-icon iconSVG enhancedGlasses\" onclick=\"showModalExcerpt('0826416616','desc_contributorbio0826416616-content');\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"expandContent\" id=\"desc_contributorbio0826416616-content\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"contribBio\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"c1\"\u003eGeoffrey Himes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ehas written about music on a weekly basis in the Washington Post since 1977.
