Tonechaser is the first in a series of audiobooks based around the hardback titled Tonechaser – Understanding Edward: My 26-Year Journey with Edward Van Halen. Veteran rock journalist and author Steve Rosen narrates the nearly 20-hour audiobook but all the interviews between Rosen and the legendary guitarist which occur in the 580-page hardback utilize the actual archival recordings made by Steve dating all the way back to 1978. So, what you are hearing in Tonechaser – Vol. 1 are hours and hours of extraordinarily rare, never before heard conversations presented here for the first time. There has never been an audiobook such as this one. Rosen had a unique friendship with Van Halen no other writer ever experienced. Because of this very close and meaningful relationship, many of the interviews embedded in Tonechaser – Vol. 1 reveal a profound depth of respect and trust between writer and rockstar. Van Halen fans will truly love this audiobook. Tonechaser – Vol. 1 is an important piece in the history of Edward Van Halen and a stunning tribute to the legacy of the late and legendary guitarist.Voir livre

This is a full recording of Daniel Martin Berkey performing the play Remission, which Backstage magazine called "mind-blowing" and NYTheater called "90 intense and harrowing minutes of spectacular wordplay." Written by playwright Kirk Wood Bromley ("Shakespeare on mushrooms" - LA Weekly), produced by NYC's Inverse Theater (“Best Downtown Theater Company" - NYPress 2001), scored by John Gideon, and originally performed by Berkey himself in the NYC Fringe Festival in 2009 (winning "Outstanding Solo Show"), Remission tells the story of Berkey’s journey into and out of schizophrenia in dramatic verse that one reviewer termed "a terrifying, violent freefall into insanity" (JustShowsToGoYou).
With his symptoms beginning at age six, Berkey experienced a spectrum of challenges, including berating voices and haunting visions, paranoia and catatonia, and addiction to sex, heroin, and alcohol. Then, at the age of 51, homeless and deranged, while walking along a freeway on Long Island, he saw a vision – a giant golden cube suspended in the sky from which emanated 3000 winged humanoid figures beckoning him to join them in the World Self. Awaking from the splendor, he walked home, flushed his medications, and has been symptom-free ever since.
And while this journey is central to Remission's narrative, the play is more than a retelling. With each line, the play "stretches, exercises, jolts, and exalts the audience" (NYTheater) by immersing it in an experience of actually having schizophrenia, creating a "one-of-a-kind, undiluted and unforgettable trip into the crazy." (JustShowsToGoYou).

In the '80s, the Birmingham, England, band Duran Duran became closely associated with new wave, an idiosyncratic genre that dominated the decade's music and culture. No album represented this rip-it-up-and-start-again movement better than the act's breakthrough 1982 LP, Rio. A cohesive album with a retro-futuristic sound—influences include danceable disco, tangy funk, swaggering glam, and Roxy Music's art-rock—the full-length sold millions and spawned smashes such as ""Hungry Like the Wolf"" and the title track.However, Rio wasn't a success everywhere at first; in fact, the LP had to be buffed-up with remixes and reissued before it found an audience in America. The album was further buoyed by colorful music videos, which established Duran Duran as leaders of an MTV-driven second British Invasion, and the group's cutting-edge visual aesthetic. Via extensive new interviews with band members and other figures who helped Rio succeed, this book explores how and why Rio became a landmark pop-rock album, and examines how the LP was both a musical inspiration—and a reflection of a musical, cultural, and technology zeitgeist.Voir livre
