Synopsis

Sonny Clark was a unique jazz pianist. Totally original, he never sounded like any other jazz pianist and no other piano player ever sounded like him.
 
This is his story; the musicians he worked and recorded with included Rollins, Coltrane, Gordon and many others. His closeness to Nica, the jazz baroness, and her tireless efforts to help him and get him off the debilitating drugs that were destroying him. The crazy New York loft jazz scene and his friends there. His unique gift as a jazz pianist and everything that went with it including his ending and the ultimate tragedy. His life was like many other jazz musicians who lived hard and died young.
 
The difference lies in the precise way he lived, his success as an improvising musician, and the obstacles that played a huge part in his life - and the final twist of fate at the end of his life.

    I know why you're here. You've probably seen some of the influencers online bragging about how they've made millions flipping NFTs, and now they have 30 Lambos! They live in an oceanside mansion and have a private butler who picks out all of the brown m&ms from the packet before serving them. You want to live like that, right? NFTs are your ticket to millions. They have to be! Because you've already tried everything else! Well, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you should probably not start shopping for Lambos just yet...The truth is that a lot of those projects fail. Just hop on Twitter or discord now, and you'll see them literally begging people to buy or raise the price of their NFTs.It's because they failed to have a plan and like some brilliant person whose name I don't recall right now used to say. "If you fail to plan, you are planning the fail" The brilliant person was Benjamin Franklin btw. Thanks, Google.Lucky for you, that you somehow stumbled upon our little book. So we're going to give you a plan! We're not guaranteeing Lambos just yet; that comes in the final chapter. Just kidding, this is not financial advice, etc., do your own research We've laid this book out in easy to understand format with six different sections. Well, it's technically six after the legal stuff(please don't sue me, bro) and prologue where we introduce ourselves and give you "The Ultimate NFT Glossary" sorry, it's long but trust me, you'll need it before you embark on your journey! So, after that stuff above, you get to the six sections or phases as we like to call them. I would type them all here, but I don't want to spoil the adventure or the table of contents, for that matter! Thanks for even coming to our sales page and for even considering buying our book! The last thing, if you do get a Lambo from following our advice, you're going to have to let me put my kid's car seat in it and take it for a spin! 
See you on the inside!

    Alla Prima Skies and Seas is a thorough guide to this exciting technique whereby paint is applied quickly over previous washes and layers of pigment before it dries. Mark Stopforth demonstrates how the technique can be used without a brush to powerfully portray skies and seas. He explains further how it allows for bold, strong artwork that echoes the enigmatic styles of Turner, Van Gogh and Constable.

    Spid The Spider Has a Day Off is the first book in the Spid The Spider series. In this book Spid meets some interesting and wonderful characters including his girlfriend Bid and Herman the Harvestman amongst others. In the story Spid doesn't know how to spend his day off - until, after a big breakfast, he has an idea. It's perfect. At least it should have been. But as so often happens for Spid, things don't go as planned ... This audiobook features two songs, 'I'm Having Fun' and 'Wibble Wobble'.  You can also find music videos of the songs at https://spidthespider.com and https://www.youtube.com/spidthespider. Spid is a lowly spider, who wants to better himself, write songs, and marry his girlfriend Bid, though he is prone to hilarious mishaps mostly of his own making. He is hard-working, cool, and a role model for young children. As well as encouraging children to read and love books, Spid's adventures also teach valuable life lessons, including determination and what psychologists call a 'growth mindset' (desire to better oneself and succeed), the importance of friendship, and sustainability. With very creative prose, Spid's adventures are fun for parents, and teachers to read to, and with, their children. They present lots of opportunities to invest dramatic licence thus helping adults and children interact and engage. The humour works at multiple levels from silly and slapstick to more sophisticated wordplay and concepts. Thus, children will discover more and enjoy reading the stories multiple times.

    Through the Eyes of a Dancer compiles the writings of noted dance critic and editor Wendy Perron. In pieces for The SoHo Weekly News, Village Voice, The New York Times, and Dance Magazine, Perron limns the larger aesthetic and theoretical shifts in the dance world since the 1960s. She surveys a wide range of styles and genres, from downtown experimental performance to ballets at the Metropolitan Opera House. In opinion pieces, interviews, reviews, brief memoirs, blog posts, and contemplations on the choreographic process, she gives readers an up-close, personalized look at dancing as an art form. Dancers, choreographers, teachers, college dance students—and anyone interested in the intersection between dance and journalism—will find Perron's probing and insightful writings inspiring. Through the Eyes of a Dancer is a nuanced microcosm of dance's recent globalization and modernization that also provides an opportunity for new dancers to look back on the traditions and styles that preceded their own.
