Beschreibung

Rock Radio Rivalries dives into the high-octane world of rock radio, dissecting the fierce battles between stations that shaped music trends and cultivated loyal listeners. The book exposes how programming decisions weren't just about playing tunes; they were strategic moves in a cutthroat competition for ratings dominance. For example, legal battles over call letters and signal strength significantly fueled radio rivalries. The book highlights the critical role of program directors and DJs, revealing their influence on playlist curation and promotional tactics. It also emphasizes the reciprocal relationship between stations and their listeners, illustrating how radio fostered a sense of community. Through archival materials, industry publications, and firsthand interviews, Rock Radio Rivalries traces rock radio's evolution from the early days of broadcasting to the rise of Album-Oriented Rock (AOR).

 
The book progresses by first establishing the historical context of rock radio and then delving into the programming techniques employed by rival stations. By examining these localized rivalries, the book offers a nuanced understanding of how regional tastes influenced music programming, providing valuable insights into a pivotal era of music history.

Acts of Resistance - The Power...

Amber Massie-Blomfield

What is the purpose of art in a world on fire? Can it be a genuine form of political resistance? 
 
 
 
What is the purpose of art in a world on fire? In this exhilarating and deeply inspiring work, Amber Massie-Blomfield considers the work of artists, writers, musicians, and filmmakers—such as Gran Fury, Billie Holiday, Alexis Wright, Claude Cahun, Rick Lowe, and Joseph Beuys—alongside collectives, communities, and organizations that have used protest sites as their canvas and spearheaded political movements. From writer Ken Saro Wiwa combating oil pollution in Nigeria and Susan Sontag directing Waiting for Godot in besieged Sarajevo to the women stitching subversive patchworks in Pinochet's Chile and the artist-activists who blocked the building of a new airport in France, with stories drawn from environmentalism, feminism, anti-fascism, and other movements, Acts of Resistance brings together remarkable acts of creativity that have shifted history on its axis.
