Torment Saint
Author: William Todd Schultz
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1620403781
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
Elliott Smith was one of the most gifted songwriters of the '90s, adored by fans for his subtly melancholic words and melodies.The sadness had its sources in the life.There was trauma from an early age, years of drug abuse, and a chronic sense of disconnection that sometimes seemed self-engineered.Smith died violently in LA in 2003, under what some believe to be questionable circumstances, of stab wounds to the chest.By this time fame had found him, and record-buyers who shared the listening experience felt he spoke directly to them from beyond:astute, damaged, lovelorn, fighting, until he could fight no more. And yet, although his intimate lyrics carried the weight of truth, Smith remained unknowable. In Torment Saint, William Todd Schultz gives us the first proper biography of the rock star, a decade after his death, imbued with affection, authority, sensitivity, and long-awaited clarity. Torment Saint draws on Schultz's careful, deeply knowledgeable readings and insights, as well as on more than 150 hours of interviews with close friends from Texas to Los Angeles, lovers, bandmates, music peers, managers, label owners, and recording engineers and producers. This book unravels the remaining mysteries of Smith's life and his shocking, too early end.It will be, for Smith's legions of fans and readers still discovering his songbook, an indispensable examination of his life and legacy.

A Question Mark

Pages :
Book Description
The death of singer-songwriter Elliott Smith has been an open case for the last eighteen years. The Oscar-nominated musician died of two stab wounds in the chest after a fight with his girlfriend Jennifer Chiba on October 21st, 2003. Even though his death was first reported by the media as an alleged suicide, a police investigation was reopened after the results of the autopsy were made public. Because of Elliott's history with drug addiction, depression, and suicide ideation, it was not difficult for many people, fans included, to believe he had killed himself. However, the circumstances of his death, the findings of the autopsy, as well as a series of inconsistencies and discrepancies have left open the possibility of homicide.The book is written from the perspective of Alyson, a real-life fan who undergoes her own investigation, motivated by her sense of justice and desire to determine the truth. If the exact circumstances of Elliott Smith's tragic death cannot be established beyond a reasonable doubt, after some persistent and in-depth research of the case and the insight of more than 40 people, the story that emerges is quite different from the one that has been too often portrayed in the media. Even though Elliott had well-documented problems, the events surrounding his death appear to be much murkier than previously thought, making it more difficult to believe his death was a clear-cut suicide.

Tim Holt
Author: David Rothel
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781502556523
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
Although he appeared in a number of classic films — John Ford's STAGECOACH and MY DARLING CLEMENTINE, Orson Welles' THE MAGNIFICENT AMBERSONS, and John Huston's TREASURE OF THE SIERRA MADRE — Tim Holt is best known as the boyishly handsome star of some four dozen "B" Westerns made between 1940 and 1952. The son of popular silent-screen star Jack Holt, Tim worked in major and minor films alike but always returned to the humble Saturday-matinee horse operas he genuinely enjoyed making. His career is thoroughly and exhaustively chronicled in David Rothel's book, which presents fact-filled entries on every film and paints an accurate picture of Tim Holt the man via interviews conducted with his friends, family members, and co-workers. The book is illustrated with more than 200 rare photographs, including never-before-published family snapshots. Not only the career study of a popular star, TIM HOLT contributes a great deal to the history of Western movies and deserves a place in every film buff's personal reference library.
