Will Romano: Close To The Edge - How Yes's Masterpiece Defined Prog Rock

Will Romano: Close To The Edge - How Yes's Masterpiece Defined Prog Rock

**Please note: This title is not available to the EU book trade.** The first half of the 1970s was an especially fertile period for British progressive rock, laying claim to classics such as Tarkus, Selling England by the Pound, Larks' Tongues in Aspic, The Dark Side of the Moon, and Thick as a Brick. Collectively these and other works represent the best British progressive rock had to offer. Yet, it's Yes 's 1972 three-track masterpiece, Close To The Edge , that presents a snapshot of an adventurous rock band at the peak of its powers, daring to push itself musically, both as individuals and as a unit. Yes had previously penned epic tracks for The Yes Album and Fragile, but nothing on the magnitude of the musical gems appearing on Close To The Edge . It's something of a small miracle – perhaps even magic – that the virtuoso quintet crafted such a cohesive and compelling album during an often-hectic recording process that very nearly relegated this monumental work to the dustbin of history. So potent was the power of Close To The Edge that even before its release it had forever shifted the personal dynamics of the group and the course of progressive rock.  For this absorbing chronicle, acclaimed music journalist Will Romano draws upon dozens of original and archived interviews. This book also features rare photographs and an extensive discography, all of which reveal why Close To The Edge is the ultimate prog rock album.

Chord Master : How to Choose and Play the Right Guitar Chords Updated Edition

Chord Master : How to Choose and Play the Right Guitar Chords Updated Edition

Chord Master is a chord dictionary with a difference. Rather than just show chord shapes - which are all there in the Chord Matrix - a large portion of the book explains how to use chords, with information about the theory behind them, and attempts to answer the questions guitarists often have about chord shapes. Also, it presents usable groups of chords for beginners in relation to a variety of song styles. This new, revised edition emphasises the practical and is even more useful to beginners, with expanded exercises and more audio. The multimedia component has roughly doubled the number of tracks and is 30 minutes longer. Some audio examples have a backing track arrangedto stress melodic and rhythmic elements so that when the reader puts the chords alongside, the effect is marked, sometimes allowing for re-harmonizing the same music with a different chord progression, or a chord progression played in more than one area of the guitar. The notation of the chord progressions is partly redesigned, making it easier to read. This will also make this part of the book more attractive to the casual browser. More chord types have been added to Chord Master's Matrix (dictionary) section, with new material about balanced chords (which remove ineffective or unnecessary doublings of notes) and about effective chord voicing. The section about chords from famous songs is expanded with more examples of unusual chords, including ones that players are often curious about - one of the most famous examples is the first chord of A Hard Day's Night.

GUNS N' ROSES FAQ - All That's Left to Know About the Bad Boys of Sunset Strip

GUNS N' ROSES FAQ - All That's Left to Know About the Bad Boys of Sunset Strip

Thirty years ago this July, five L.A. punks unleashed their debut album upon the atrophied and decadent rock charts of Reagans America. Within weeks, Appetite for Destruction ascended to number one on the U.S. charts; to date, Appetite has sold morethan thirty million copies, making it the bestselling U.S. debut album of all time.To say that Guns N Roses redefined rock n roll is akin to asserting that Jimi Hendrix revolutionized surf music - a statement that, while technically true, doesmore to conceal the truth than elucidate it.GNR turned back the tide of MTV-spawned New Wave/synth pop by infusing the blistering hard rock of Led Zeppelin and Aerosmith with a punk sensibility that hearkened back to the onstage anarchy of theStooges, New York Dolls, and Sex Pistols. In Guns N Roses FAQ: All Thats Left to Know About the Bad Boys of Sunset Strip, Rich Weidman charts the amazing journey of this seminal record and the band behind it. From the gutters of West Hollywood tothe Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, from Appetite to The Spaghetti Incident?, these 400 pages of hedonistic nihilism, salacious debauchery, and raw, unadulterated rock are guaranteed to turn your head, blow out your eardrums, obliterate your comfortzone, and leave you begging for more. Written in Backbeats popular FAQ format, Guns N Roses FAQ breaks the bands story into a series of chapters equally suitable for a straight-through read or piecemeal consumption.Weidmans treasure trove offacts, trivia, stories, and photographs touch on every topic imaginable. Subjects explored include the bands earliest influences and venues, most notorious concerts and opening acts, highlights from their seemingly endless Appetite for Destructionand Use Your Illusion tours, bizarre TV appearances (like the time they destroyed the set of MTVs Headbangers Ball!), public and private feuds, music videos, best and worst covers (Pat Boone, anyone?), and much more. From the golden years of thelate eighties and early nineties to the outrageous antics and self-destructive tendencies that to irreconcilable inner turmoil, from the bands West Hollywood club days to the reunion of three of the five classic band members during the 2016 Not inThis Lifetime Tour, Guns N Roses FAQ paints a portrait replete with sheer talent, raw power, dangerous rivalries, rock excess, and sudden reconciliation thats simply unrivaled by anything else on the market.
