This Wheel's on Fire
Author: Levon Helm
Publisher: Chicago Review Press
ISBN: 1613748760
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 378
Book Description
“Helm lays it all bare in vivid, impassioned prose, adding an earthly, backwoods tone that makes the book read like a Southern novel, like Thomas Wolfe writing about rock ’n’ roll.” —Boston Globe “One of the most insightful and intelligent rock bios in recent memory.” —Entertainment Weekly The Band, who backed Bob Dylan when he went electric in 1965 and then turned out a half-dozen albums of beautifully crafted, image-rich songs, is now regarded as one of the most influential rock groups of the '60s. But while their music evoked a Southern mythology, only their Arkansawyer drummer, Levon Helm, was the genuine article. From the cotton fields to Woodstock, from seeing Sonny Boy Williamson and Elvis Presley to playing for President Clinton, This Wheel’s on Fire replays the tumultuous history of our times in Levon’s own unforgettable folksy drawl. This edition is expanded with a new epilogue covering the last dozen years of Levon's life. Levon Helm (1940-2012) met Ronnie Hawkins at the age of 17 and formed what would soon become The Band. He maintained a successful career as a singer and actor until his death. Stephen Davis is the author of Hammer of the Gods: The Led Zeppelin Saga; More Room in a Broken Heart: The True Adventures of Carly Simon; Old Gods Almost Dead: The 40-Year Odyssey of the Rolling Stones; Jim Morrison: Life, Death, Legend; Walk This Way: The Autobiography of Aerosmith; and others.

Basement Tales. Bob Dylan - The Basement Tapes On Disc (1968-2014)
Author: Andrea Brillo
Publisher: Youcanprint
ISBN:
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
Basement Tales goes through and analyzes, in chronological order, the publication on disk of the songs recorded by Bob Dylan & The Band in numerous sessions in Woodstock between the months of March and October of 1967. These songs, better known as The Basement Tapes, were not originally intended for the making of a Bob Dylan's album but for cover versions by various artists of the time. The importance of the author and his simultaneous momentary absence from the recording market initially aroused interest from the underground market, which started the publication of the first bootlegs in the history of rock, and subsequently also those of the official record company. The publication of the songs taken from the Basement Tapes begins in 1969 with seven songs present in the bootleg Great White Wonder and ends with the creation, in 2014, of a voluminous box of 140 songs by Columbia Records, which was The Bootleg Series Vol 11: The Basement Tapes Complete. In this long period of time the two markets, the underground and the official one, have alternated with various record publications which are analyzed in detail in the book.
