This Is All a Dream We Dreamed
Author: Blair Jackson
Publisher: Macmillan
ISBN: 1250058562
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 514
Book Description
Fifty years after the Grateful Dead was formed, the band still exerts a powerful influence over hundreds of thousands of fans around the world. Today, an entire generation of Deadheads who have never experienced a live Dead show are still drawn to the music and the complex and colorful subculture that has grown up around it. In This Is All a Dream We Dreamed, Blair Jackson and David Gans, two of the most well-respected chroniclers of the Dead, reveal the band's story through the words of its members and their creative collaborators, as well as a number of diverse fans, stitching together a multitude of voices into a seamless oral tapestry. Woven into this musical saga is an examination of the subculture that developed into its own economy, touching fans from all walks of life, from penniless hippies to celebrities, and at least one U.S. vice president. The book traces the band's evolution from its folk/bluegrass beginnings through the Jug Band craze, an early incarnation as Rolling Stones wannabes, feral psychedelic warriors, the Americana jam band that blazed through the '70s, to the shockingly popular but still iconoclastic stadium-filling band of later years. The Dead broke every rule of the music business along the way, taking risks and venturing into new territory as they fused inspired ideas and techniques with intuition and fearlessness to create a sound-and a business model-unlike anything heard and seen before.

Behind the Boogie
Author: Robert “Boogie” Bowles with Kathleen G
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1465336052
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
Sharing his principles and trials to success with other musicians is what Robert “Boogie” Bowles endeavors in his autobiography, which commemorates 25 years of playing guitar for Motown legend Smokey Robinson. His story takes the reader not only “Behind the Boogie,” but behind the scenes of how popular hit songs like “I Will Survive,” “Shake Your Groove Thing,” and “Reunited” were recorded, and what life was like as a musician on the road during the turbulent 1960’s and the Civil Rights unrest. He’s played on the “Saturday Night Fever” soundtrack and has recorded with famed producers Kenny Gamble & Leon Huff and Freddie Perren & Dino Fekaris, to name a few. From the day he was discovered by the “Ice Man” Jerry Butler, Boogie’s journey of rhythm and blues follows the course from band performer, studio musician, songwriter, producer, and arranger, to music publisher. Despite hitting the charts with a “bullet” and later hitting rock-bottom, Boogie exemplifies how a seasoned musician sustains longevity in the entertainment business and how he’s shared the course for more than two decades performing with Smokey Robinson.
