Languages : en
Pages : 488
Book Description
What do Tom Jones, Nick Cave, Joan Baez, John Denver, Ray Charles, Del Shannon, Keith Richards, B.B. King, Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash, Carol Channing, Manowar and Linda Ronstadt... have in common? Mickey Newbury. They recorded his songs. Matter of fact, Newbury's material has been covered by over 1,230 artists. That is just about everybody. His inspirational ballad "An American Trilogy" has been recorded by more than 550 artists. It was Elvis' showstopper. His "Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)" is the rocker that launched Kenny Rogers' career into the stratosphere. Newbury, who grew up on Houston's tough North side, is the only songwriter to place four top hits on four different charts... simultaneously. The train hopper was also instrumental in mentoring Kris Kristofferson, who says, "God, I learned more about songwriting from Mickey than I did any other single human being. He was my hero and still is." Shotgun Willie Nelson adds, "He was one of the best writers we've ever had and one of the best friends I've ever had." And that is not all. Newbury's albums enjoy an extensive cult following. Peers consider him among the best of the best, and many artists refer to his albums as "perfect." Some call him a modern day Stephen Foster. Why then is Newbury known mainly to insiders? A well-kept secret? Too good for the masses? Two truths can be stated: The man cannot be pigeonholed, and he refused to sell out. Like crystal and stone, Newbury's fascinating story is clearly and solidly laid out. It may even change a few truths. As he wrote, Time has a way of changing everything Truth has a way of changing all the time.

ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 8859
Book Description
The anthology '60+ Western Novels by Max Brand (Including The Dan Barry Series, The Ronicky Doone Trilogy & The Silvertip Collection)' is a monumental collection that captures the essence and breadth of the American West through the pen of Max Brand, the nom de plume of Frederick Schiller Faust. This collection embodies the diverse landscapes of the Western genre, ranging from the untamed wilderness to the conflict between man and nature, and the quest for justice in a lawless land. The anthology showcases a variety of literary styles from gripping narratives, rich character studies, to intricate plots that intertwine fate and redemption, establishing the profound significance of Brand's work within the Western literary canon. Notably, the inclusion of entire series allows readers to deeply engage with recurring characters and their evolving stories, demonstrating Brand's skill in character development and narrative continuity. The contributing author, Frederick Schiller Faust, under his more famous alias Max Brand, was a prolific figure in early 20th-century literature, whose work significantly shaped the Western genre. His narratives were not merely tales of adventure but were imbued with a keen psychological depth and an exploration of human nature, making them resonate with readers and scholars alike. Faust's prolific output and his ability to capture the spirit of the American frontier have rendered his works an integral part of the literary movement that revered the West as a canvas for storytelling. This collection, therefore, not only celebrates the legacy of a remarkable author but also serves as a critical resource for understanding the evolution of Western literature. '60+ Western Novels by Max Brand' is an indispensable anthology for anyone interested in the development of the Western genre, American literature, or the narratives that have shaped perceptions of the American West. It offers readers a unique opportunity to explore a significant body of work by a single author, presenting a comprehensive view of Max Brands contribution to literature. This anthology is a testament to the enduring appeal of Western stories and their capacity to explore complex themes of morality, justice, and identity. Scholars, students, and enthusiasts of Western literature are encouraged to delve into this collection to appreciate the depth and diversity of Max Brands narratives, and to foster a deeper understanding of the genre's place within the broader landscape of American literature.
