Sinossi

Guitarist Steve Hackett first came to many fan’s attention when he joined Genesis in 1971. Following seven excellent albums with the band, he went his own way in 1977. He had already kick-started his solo career with the critically acclaimed Voyage of the Acolyte in 1975, but 25 studio albums have followed, making him the most prolific member of the classic Genesis line-up. In the 1980s, he also formed the successful GTR band with Yes guitarist Steve Howe. Steve Hackett’s solo work has embraced rock, prog, classical, blues, pop, jazz and world music, while his most recent electric album At The Edge of Light released in 2019, is perhaps his best since the classic Spectral Mornings in 1979. On stage, he has kept the Genesis flame burning brightly, performing the band’s classic material from the 1970s, alongside his solo work.
 
This book examines, in detail, each one of Steve’s studio albums, including Under A Mediterranean Sky, released in 2021 and traces his long and varied musical history. Collaborations, live albums and compilations are also discussed, making this the most comprehensive guide to the music of Steve Hackett yet published. Whether the reader is a diehard fan or someone wishing to catch-up on his post-Genesis work, this book is essential reading.

    For centuries, Native American legends have served as the foundation of cultural identity, spiritual belief, and moral guidance for Indigenous peoples across the continent. These stories, passed down through generations, reflect the deep connection between Native American communities and the natural world, offering insight into their understanding of life, death, and the unseen forces that shape existence. More than just myths, these legends form the backbone of spiritual practices, social structures, and the traditions that continue to thrive today.  
      
    One of the most striking aspects of Native American storytelling is its reliance on oral tradition. Unlike written histories, which remain fixed in time, oral traditions are fluid, evolving with each retelling while preserving the essence of ancestral wisdom. Elders and storytellers pass these tales to younger generations, ensuring the survival of cultural knowledge and reinforcing values such as respect, humility, and harmony with nature. Through storytelling, communities maintain a sense of continuity, bridging the past with the present and preparing future generations for the challenges of life.  
      
    At the heart of Native American legends is an intrinsic connection to the natural world. Many stories revolve around the land, animals, and celestial bodies, portraying them as spiritual entities rather than mere physical elements. Rivers, mountains, and forests are often imbued with sacred significance, serving as homes to powerful spirits or the setting for legendary events. Animals, too, play a vital role, with figures like the wise Raven, the cunning Coyote, and the noble Eagle embodying various aspects of human nature. These stories do not merely explain natural phenomena—they offer guidance on how to coexist with the environment, reinforcing the belief that humans are part of a greater, interconnected whole.

    At the time, it was unclear why the UK government targeted the Spiral Tribe travelling sound system. Even after arresting many key members and launching one of Britain's biggest court cases against them. 
    Was it really because they were a marauding horde of anarcho-techno-pirates, their outlandish music calling a generation to rise up in rebellion against conservatism, convention, and even consensus reality? 
    Or was it because, as pioneers of the 1990s free party movement, championing the new British breakbeat and European techno sound, they were reclaiming social space in warehouses and out under the stars? 
    Each weekend they pulled ever bigger crowds away from consumer culture. No superstar DJs, no door policy and everyone dancing together as equals. An inspiring, unifying force of creativity. 
    As Spiral Tribe's co-founder and visual artist (or as the Crown Prosecutor described him, 'the criminal ringleader' who'd helped 'mastermind' Britain's 'biggest ever illegal rave' at Castlemorton), Mark Angelo Harrison has a unique perspective to tell their inside story. He vividly charts their nomadic journey and the rapid escalation of their popularity - and notoriety. 
    From small squat-scene parties in London to enormous warehouse raves and free festivals. From one little overloaded van to the mighty convoy of matt-black military vehicles that instigated the teknivals of Europe.

    Ever wonder how legendary linebacker Bobby Wagner applies Jay-Z's entrepreneurial lessons to his football career? Or what studying the music business taught graffiti pioneer Fab 5 Freddy about distributing his art? Any entrepreneur or professional can gain a greater understanding of what's happening in the world -- from trends like NFTs to changes in the broader business climate -- by observing what has happened to (and because of) musicians. Doing so offers a path to wrapping one's brain around what may yet be coming down the pike in any industry. Take the shift from analog to digital, in which vinyl and cassettes were replaced by CDs long before DVDs conquered VHS. Or the move from physical to virtual, where Napster decimated record stores even as bricks-and-mortar retailers like Blockbuster blindly chugged toward their doom. In "We Are All Musicians Now," former Forbes senior editor Zack O'Malley Greenburg educates and enlightens while offering the audience backstage passes to the most fascinating industry transformations of the past fifty years.

    By " assembling" some of the most fascinating figures in world history, Meeting of Minds provided a groundbreaking opportunity for audiences to be exposed to ideas by way of a medium not normally known for its intellectual vigor. Portrayed by actors, panelists engage in stimulating round-table discussions that were conducted like any other talk show but featured prominent influencers from bygone generations— not just philosophers and politicians, but poets, playwrights, and presidents. From activists and artists to international leaders— both famous and infamous— these conversations are unfailingly witty, thought-provoking, and genuinely entertaining.
    An innovative series, Meeting of Minds remains one of the most delightful ways of gaining historical perspective ever devised, and these original soundtrack recordings capture the intellectual and spirited debates of the episodes hosted by Steve Allen. The panelists featured in this volume are American social reformer Frederick Douglass, formidable Chinese Empress Tz'u-his, Italian criminologist Cesare Bonesana-Beccaria, and French libertine Marquis de Sade.
