Sinopse

The Newcastle Song Book; or, Tyne-Side Songster is a significant anthology that captures the rich musical heritage of the Newcastle region, presenting a vivid tapestry of local songs, ballads, and verses. This collection features an array of lyrical expressions that reflect the cultural, social, and historical nuances of Tyne-Side, delivered in a style that retains the authenticity of the dialect and the folk tradition. The book serves as both a celebration of local identity and a valuable resource for understanding the evolution of English folk music, drawing upon poetic forms that range from the jubilant to the melancholic, evoking the vibrancy of working-class life in the 19th century. Compiled by various authors and local musicians, this volume showcases the collaborative spirit of folk tradition, resonating with a deep sense of place and community. The contributors, likely influenced by their own experiences in the Newcastle area, sought to preserve the oral histories and melodies that define their local culture. The anthology acts as both a historical document and a testament to the continuity of expression through music, echoing the lives of the people who inhabit this storied region. For readers interested in folk music, cultural history, or the authentic voices of the working-class North East, The Newcastle Song Book is an essential addition to the literary canon. It invites you to immerse yourself in the heart of Tyne-Side, offering a unique opportunity to engage with the songs that have shaped the collective memory and identity of this community. Whether you are a musicologist, a historian, or a casual reader, this collection promises to enchant and educate.

    He was the King of Rockabilly, and one of rock and roll's true pioneers. A groundbreaking guitarist, singer, and songwriter, Carl Perkins inspired countless musicians in country, rock, and pop music. Now acclaimed music writer Jeff Apter recounts Carl Perkins's remarkable life story—the triumphs, tragedies, and career highlights that include some of the most pivotal moments in music history. 
     
     
     
    Born in Tennessee to poor sharecroppers, Carl grew up listening to gospel and country music, learned blues guitar from a fellow field hand, and started writing songs at age fourteen. He plied his trade in rowdy honky-tonks, performing with his brothers before beginning his recording career at the legendary Sun Studio in Memphis. It was there that Carl became a member of the fabled Million Dollar Quartet, alongside Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, and Jerry Lee Lewis. In 1955, he wrote and recorded "Blue Suede Shoes," the first record by a Sun artist to sell over a million copies. But then a fateful car crash stalled his career, one of many tragedies in Carl's life. Over the following decades, countless artists performed and recorded his songs and became Carl's friends, collaborators, and champions. Rich with insider detail and background into Carl's private battles, humanitarian work, and personal inspirations, this is a fascinating, in-depth look at his one-of-a-kind legacy.

    Ariana Grande captured the hearts of a nation with her One Love Manchester concert. 
    Less than a fortnight after a terrorist killed twenty-two people at her Manchester show, the petite princess stood tall at her tribute concert that united and healed a shaken nation. She was the emotional core of a powerful evening that reminded us all of music's redemptive power. 
    But who is Ariana Grande? This candid book traces the US pop star's story from her childhood in Florida, through her teenage years on Broadway and Nickelodeon, and on to her gleaming pop career which has seen her described as 'the new Mariah Carey'. 
    This unauthorized biography tells the songbird's eventful and inspirational story in full for the first time, and shows how she became an award-winning, chart-topping pop idol, as well as an empowering inspiration for a generation of girls. 
    It reveals that there is more to Ariana than the celebrity we all think we know, explaining how her smooth transition from a squeaky-clean teenage pop product to a sophisticated, bold artist was powered by a restless and resilient personality. 
    This is a full, unflinching portrait of a pop sensation and inspiring, uncompromising woman - the small, sassy girl with the ponytail who conquered the world.

    More and more textile artists are using natural processes in their work, from dyeing with rust to working with found and scavenged items, and this book is the first to bring these increasingly popular techniques together. It promotes a way of working creatively with what is close at hand, whether gathered on walks by the seashore or collected in your garden, and working in tune with natural processes, bringing the rhythms and unpredictability of nature into your work.
    Examples of this type of working include rust dyeing embroidered fabric to give it a natural patina, dyeing with garden fruits or seaweed, weaving with pieces of beachcombed fibre and printing with found objects. In all of this work nature is directly harnessed to make its mark.
    The book is illustrated with the finest examples of contemporary embroidery and textile-art work using nature, by artists whose practice is tied up with their experience of and respect for the natural environment, often capturing a very strong sense of place and a feeling of calmness and contemplation.
