  Abba's Abba Gold

  Starting a song with the chorus is the equivalent of drawing your gun too early in a shoot-out, of revealing your hand too hastily in a poker game: Once you’ve given everything you have, where’s the pay off? And yet “Dancing Queen” doesn’t flag after its flamboyant beginning: The chorus acts as both teaser and pay off. Ironically for a band that was supposed to be a bunch of control freaks with a solution to every technical or musical conundrum, it later surfaced that “Dancing Queen” starts with the chorus because Abba just couldn’t figure out how to make it work any other way.Perhaps more than any other Greatest Hits compilation, Abba Gold has come to define a band’s career on one disk. More than that, its release in 1992 heralded the critical rehabilitation of a group which had, since its demise a decade earlier, become little more than a memory of trashy costumes and cheesy tunes to many people. Here, Elisabeth Vincentelli charts the circumstances surrounding the birth of Abba Gold, looks at the impact it had on the music world, and tells the stories behind some of the greatest pop songs ever recorded.

  A cruel conqueror has captured the Spanish city of Fuente Ovejuna. As his reign of terror builds, the townspeople look within themselves to find the courage to overthrow him. The eminent Spanish playwright Lope de Vega based his best-known play on a historical incident that took place in 1476. Written in the early 17th century, the play remains a timely meditation on honor and selflessness in the face of oppression.

  Spid is bored and longs for adventure. When he daydreams one day, of faraway places, he finds himself flying back in time. But his adventure isn’t quite as he expected...This audiobook features two songs: 'Seven Wonders' and 'I Dreamed of Faraway'. 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.

  MINSTREL BOY: Picasso of Song Part 2 
  This book is about is one of the major cultural figures of the modern age, combining a reverence for the traditions of many forms of American music with a distinctly postmodern sensibility. It is no exaggeration to state that he has revolutionised the art of poetic songwriting. He is a recipient of the Nobel Prize for Literature, the Pulitzer Prize and numerous other awards, as well as being arguably the most influential single artist in the history of rock music.  
  This book is the second volume of Chris Gregory’s Picasso of Song, a highly comprehensive ‘trilogy in reverse’ which takes ‘deep dives’ into all of the songs, while exploring the many ways in which he has used live performance to expand and deepen the effects of his art. Following on from the acclaimed Determined to Stand which covered his later years, Minstrel Boy focuses on the many artistic and personal metamorphoses he went through between 1967 and 1990 - what might be called his ‘years of struggle’. Dylan could easily have rested on the laurels of his early fame but he refused to be categorised or ‘boxed in’ by the intense personal pressures that were placed on him. Instead, he continued his restless quest to find new ways to present his songs to fans and followers, knowing that they would hang onto every word he said or sang.
