  Audio Snaps Volume One - 100...

  Audio Snaps is a series of 100 minute audiobooks packed with fun stories from my books about my life in the music business. Volume One features stories from You Don’t Have to Say You Love Me, a book I wrote in 1983 about my time in London in the Sixties when, amongst other things, I was managing the Yardbirds and wrote the lyrics to the song, You Don’t Have to Say You Love Me. Reading it back now, it seems extraordinarily frank, more so than I might be nowadays, and sometimes rather rude too. When it came out, the music press loathed the book, I think because it trivialised the music industry, whereas the tabloids loved it. Nowadays, they’ve all come to see it as a classic of its time and the Observer newspaper has it at Number Eleven on its list of “The 50 Greatest Music Books Ever.” In the Independent, Charles Shaar Murray called my books, “ The cold print equivalent of spending an evening with a world-class raconteur.”  With Audio Snaps, you get the raconteur without wading through the cold print.

  Sri Ramakrishna: A Biography

  Swami Nikhilananda

  The biography of Sri Ramakrishna is the story of an intense search for God. Sri Ramakrishna was not satisfied until he realized God to be real with every fiber of his being. He ultimately saw God more intensely than he saw the world. Sri Ramakrishna talked with God as a young child speaks to the mother throughout the day. In him, there was only the thought of God, and he saw God everywhere and in everything. The Nobel Laureate Romain Rolland described Sri Ramakrishna’s life as the fulfillment of the spiritual aspirations of three hundred million Hindus for the last two thousand years. Mahatma Gandhi said, “No one can read the story of his life without being convinced that God alone is real and all else is illusion.” 
  Swami Nikhilananda was a disciple of Holy Mother Sri Sarada Devi, the wife and spiritual companion of Sri Ramakrishna. He was a senior monk of the Ramakrishna Order of India, and founder in 1933 of the Ramakrishna-Vivekananda Center of New York. As a gifted speaker, he taught classes and spoke on spiritual life and the harmony of religions in New York until his passing away in 1973. He was a beloved teacher to many spiritual aspirants, and also to students of philosophy, history, and religion. Nikhilananda had the rare privilege of intimately associating with many of the direct disciples of Sri Ramakrishna. His translations of the Upanishads, the Bhagavad Gita, and his biographies of Sri Ramakrishna, Holy Mother, and Swami Vivekananda, are considered modern classics of spiritual literature.

  The riveting account of the 1980s rivalry between superstars Anna Wintour of Vogue and Tina Brown of Vanity Fair 
   
  Inside the Condé Nast magazine world, Anna Wintour and Tina Brown were bold and talented British women who fought their way to the top of a male-dominated American industry. Wintour became an icon of fashion and New York's high society, while Brown helped define the intersection between literary culture and Hollywood celebrity. 
   
  They jockeyed for power in the hyper-competitive "off with their heads" atmosphere set up by S.I Newhouse Jr. and Alex Liberman, the two men who controlled the glossy magazines that dictated how women should look, dress, and feel. Wintour and Brown challenged the old rules and made billionaire Newhouse's company internationally famous. Ultimately, one of them won in their fascinating struggle for fame and fortune during the height of New York's gilded age of print. 
   
  At its heart, ALL THAT GLITTERS is a parable about the changes in America's media where corruption is sprinkled with glitter, power and glory. Originally titled Newhouse, this re-issued version will feature a brand-new introduction and afterword.

  Rotting Man Goes to Town - And...

  Rotting Man Goes to Town deals with an adult relationship; which is in deep trauma from the outset of the story. Its technique is predominately dual narration, going from him to her vantage points. There are two sides to every story. Some of the language is hard-hitting, with angry scenes or mindsets, including some swearing. Political incorrectness exists in parts. The emotions are raw. It is a compelling and authentic read. It begins badly. How will it end? 
  The initial setting is in America, with flashbacks to Britain, meant to counter the: hurt, sadness and anger, by the use of the device of injecting past comedic episodes. Levity and tragedy are seen in animal antics. Thus, the humorous scenes are meant to bring a balance to the novel overall. 
  With the exception of the animals’ names, which remain true, all human names have been changed.
