  Graeme Edge was born on 30th March 1941 in Rochester, Staffordshire. His mother was a pianist for the silent movies and his father, grandfather and great-grandfather were all music-hall singers. 
   
  Edge trained as a draughtsman but soon went into music full time. He never started out to be a drummer, he was, in fact the manager of a group called the Blue Rhythm Band. Graeme always watched the drummer in the group and fooled around on the drums, but never really drummed professionally until that drummer quit and he had to fill in. He then bought his first drum kit. 
   
  The first band he formed was the Silhouettes followed by The Blue Rhythm Band. He then helped to form Gerry Levene and the Avengers, who recorded a single for Decca, and appeared on TV in "Thank Your Lucky Stars". Following the collapse of this group in April 1964 Edge formed The R & B Preachers, which included Denny Laine and Clint Warwick. When that group disbanded the three of them linked up with Ray Thomas and Mike Pinder to form The M & B 5, which later changed its name to The Moody Blues.

  Are you settling for half the story? Highlighting connections that have been hidden from non-Jewish eyes, Rabbi Jason Sobel will connect the dots between the Old and New Testament, helping you see the Bible with clarity as God intended. 
  Most people—even people of faith—do not understand how the Bible fits together. Too many Christians accept half an inheritance, content to embrace merely the New Testament, while Jewish people may often experience the same by embracing only the Old Testament. But God has an intricate plan and purpose for both the Old and the New. 
  In Mysteries of the Messiah, Rabbi Jason Sobel reveals the many connections in Scripture hidden in plain sight. Known for his emphatic declaration “but there’s more!” he guides us in seeing the passion and purpose of the Messiah. Mysteries of the Messiah:Uncovers connections between the Old and New TestamentsConnects the dots for readers with details about Jesus, the Torah, and biblical charactersWritten with the unique perspective of a rabbi with an evangelical theological degree 
  No matter how many times you have read the Bible, Mysteries of the Messiah will bring fresh perspective and insight. God’s Word, written by many people over thousands of years, is not a random selection of people and stories. Rabbi Jason Sobel connects the dots and helps us see with clarity what God intended. 
  The appendix is available in the audiobook companion PDF download.

  Betty: The Dancer - A Dance With...

  At the touch of emotion, the "Dance with Destiny" becomes one of the greatest timeless biographical novel. 
  Real or not real? Real, this incredible story is true and its dramatic twists and turns go far beyond anything we could imagine. For those who love with soul there is no such thing as separation. 
  The Second World War story of the passionate and tragic affair between Betty Bjurström, the beautiful, famous dancer, and Renato Senise, film producer and Allied intelligence agent, has taken on an almost mythical dimension. 
  Like all myths, it is based on conflicting accounts and anecdotes. Accordingly, it would be almost impossible to untangle the final facts in Renato’s complex life — it is an almost novelistic attempt to portray two remarkable characters whose feelings for one another were perhaps too much to bear. 
  Enjoyable reading as living through the passions and adventures of the leading characters as they are drawn into “A Dance with Destiny”.

  Anne Frank - The Diary of a...

  Anne Frank, it has been said, gave a face and a name to the horror of the Holocaust. This is her story. It relates how Anne, her family, and their friends hid in secret rooms—"the Annex"—in an Amsterdam warehouse for 25 months. Anne, just 13 when the family moved in and only 15 when the Gestapo at last broke down the doors of her secret world, found hope where there was only fear and the first blush of love when outside and all around there washed a sea of hate. 
  Wrote Ernst Schnable, a German writer who has researched Frank's life: "Out of the millions that were silenced, this voice no louder than a child's whisper has outlasted the shouts of the murderers and has soared above the voices of time."
