    The Songwriting Magic Formula 
    The shortcut to melody creation 
    The songwriting tips and tricks no one ever told you about. 
    Instantly compose HIT vocal melodies with the backing chords at the same time. 
    This audio book dispels the myths of songwriting and destroys the negatives that hold songwriters back 
    and ends songwriters block in melody. 
    Short extract from book 
    Let’s get rid of a few myths. There’s no set way to create a melody. 
    This is True and at the same time Not true. But only in the minds of those people that know everything ? 
    Pupil says to mentor, “I know you’re going to teach me how to write better songs, but how do I come up with the actual melody?” 
    The mentor turns to the pupil and says. “Well, that’s the million dollar question. I wish I could just say, ‘sit there with your guitar do this, and out will pop a melody’. But unfortunately, there’s no such thing as a magic formula”. 
    This isn’t true. Let’s blow the other myth out of the water. The one where they say composing cannot be taught. Well, I’ve just learned you how to create 2 HIT vocal melodies in examples 1 and 2 another vocal melody in less than 15 seconds in example three and 2 more in the challenge. Usually it only takes a few seconds to hear the new melody being born. Now you can teach your friends and family how to compose a melody in less than 10 minutes. Even if they’ve never composed a melody before.  
    And not just any melodies but catchy hit melodies.

    Decades before The Daily Show, The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour proved there was a place on television for no-holds-barred political comedy with a decidedly antiauthoritarian point of view. In this explosive, revealing history of the show, veteran entertainment journalist David Bianculli tells the fascinating story of its three-year network run-and the cultural impact that's still being felt today.Before it was suddenly removed from the CBS lineup (reportedly under pressure from the Nixon administration), The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour was a ratings powerhouse. It helped launch the careers of such comedy legends as Steve Martin and Rob Reiner, featured groundbreaking musical acts like the Beatles and the Who, and served as a cultural touchstone for the antiwar movement of the late 1960s.Drawing on extensive original interviews with Tom and Dick Smothers and dozens of other key players-as well as more than a decade's worth of original research-Dangerously Funny brings listeners behind the scenes for all the battles over censorship, mind-blowing musical performances, and unforgettable sketches that defined the show and its era.David Bianculli delves deep into this riveting story to find out what really happened and to reveal why this show remains so significant to this day.

    If sensuality had a name, it would be without doubt Utamaro. Delicately underlining the Garden of Pleasures that once constituted Edo, Utamaro, by the richness of his fabrics, the swan-like necks of the women, the mysterious looks, evokes in a few lines the sensual pleasure of the Orient. If some scenes discreetly betray lovers’ games, a great number of his shungas recall that love in Japan is first and foremost erotic.

    The star of the cult classic Withnail and I offers “a refreshing combination of comedy, confession, and coruscation” in this memoir of the movie business (Kirkus Reviews).   Richard E. Grant’s acting career has included memorable roles in some of Hollywood’s most critically acclaimed films, including Robert Altman’s Gosford Park and Francis Ford Coppola’s Dracula. But he attributes his success to his first film role, starring as a flamboyantly pathetic Shakespearean in the underground hit Withnail and I. As Grant explains, “I had no notion that, almost without exception, every film offered since would be the result of playing an alcoholic out-of-work actor.”   In With Nails, Grant shares his long, maddening, and immensely rewarding journey through the world of film. From the hell of making Hudson Hawk to befriending Steve Martin on the set of L.A. Story; and from eating spaghetti with the Coppolas, to window-shopping with Sharon Stone, and working with and learning from the best actors and directors in the business, Grant’s unvarnished memoir “is a biting and wonderfully funny look at the movie business by an actor who is as clear-eyed and observant about himself as he is about the craziness surrounding him” (Publishers Weekly, starred review).

    In FORREST GUMP, Gump runs for 3 years and 2 months. In WITHNAIL AND I, Withnail drinks lighter fuel and survives apparently unharmed. In TWISTER, a tornado picks up a petrol tanker. In KEYSTONE HOTEL, a custard pie is teleported down a phone line. In DUMB AND DUMBER, a criminal is killed by a super-hot chilli. Hollywood is notorious for playing fast and loose with the laws of man and nature. But does it deserve its reputation for mangling reality? In DEATH BY CHILLI SAUCE, film fanatic and amateur sleuth extraordinaire Richard Germain asks the question 'Could that really happen?' of 101 well-known -- and apparently far-fetched -- cinematic events. The result is an epic voyage of discovery, where the truth is time and again shown to be just as weird and wonderful as the movies -- and much funnier. The ultimate blend of history, trivia and pop science, this is a book no lover of film should be without.
