Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Soft Machine are perceived as cold and forbidding. At their peak in the 1970s, they purposefully raised the hackles of pop journalists, the musical establishment, and even their own fans. Their music was designed to exclude all but the most devoted. Their line-up constantly churned, divesting themselves of every player that tried to make a human connection. Instead of the community of live performance, they favoured an abusive blast of ferocious noise that never ceased from the first note to the point you were driven out of the venue in shock. That all this was true only for a short period of their career and is certainly not the case for more recent incarnations is irrelevant if potential listeners are turned away before they've even dared to hear a note of their music. Do so, and an entirely different band emerges: one that is sly, spry, tuneful, trippy, and surprisingly welcoming, merging a glorious melange of prog rock, jazz fusion, and much more and capable of shifting on a unison beat from soul ballad to freeform skronk, from fuzz-driven pounding to aching minimalism. This book guides you through the maze of the band's works, revealing why every album is worthy of re-evaluation, why they're so influential, and why you should rush to assimilate as many of them as you can. It covers the live and studio material released by the parent group, all related projects with a 'Soft' in their name, and the essential extracurricular activities of every member from 1960 to the present day.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Of all the British bands that blasted to fame in rock's golden age, Nektar remain the most mysterious and least documented. Because they chose to base themselves in West Germany, until now commentators in their native land have tended to overlook them. They're all but excluded from prog's official narrative even though Remember The Future is a classic of the genre and one of very few European art rock albums to conquer the US. This book reveals Nektar as much more than just a hit LP, celebrating a catalogue rich in works of equal stature which, uniquely for the time, poured so effortlessly from the players. Whether you know only the clutch of 1970s albums that are Nektar at the pinnacle, or you've followed their progress under leaders Roye Albrighton and now Derek Moore, here's everything you need to complete your understanding of an agile, continuously intriguing and as distinctive as their covers, as dazzling as their light show, and as warm as their fans. It documents how Germany was both boon and bane for the band, how America tore them apart and pulled them back together, and how from Journey To The Centre Of The Eye to The Other Side Nektar have a vision and a connection that brings them much closer to our small scared lives than any other band of their stature.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Few artists have had as great an impact with their debut single as Procol Harum. Mesmerising and perplexing in equal measure, 'A Whiter Shade of Pale' remains the perfect distillation of the possibilities of psychedelia in that brief period when British pop seemed to promise a summer of love that would last forever. But as this book reveals, from the start Procol Harum envisioned a post-psychedelic landscape of the heartsick and bewildered. Through Gary Brooker's classically inspired melodies and soaring, soulful vocals, lyricist Keith Reid told harrowing stories of voyages into the darkness of the soul, through graveyards of the damned, and to the depths of madness. Aided by musicians of the calibre of Matthew Fisher and Robin Trower, Procol Harum invented and mapped out the interplay of organ and electric guitar soon to explode into prog rock's epic structures, and pioneered the integration of band and orchestra that broke the boundaries separating young musicians and the establishment. It's all here in Scott Meze's guide, from the first note to the last of a legacy that cries out to be heard.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This in-depth, large-format book is a study of how psychedelic drugs created god, pop, and just about everything! In particular, it traces how young people took hallucinogens to make music and dance to the results from the beginning of the 20th century onwards.In Fantastic Trips, Scott Meze describes a fictional species, only a little like the one in our own anthropology textbooks, that started taking drugs when it had barely come down from the trees, and continued to take them in vast quantities throughout the tens of thousands of years in which it also created science, society, a working moral code, and democracy.In the course of this book, you'll meet fictional members of this fictional species, people like Humphry Davy, Aldous Huxley, Albert Hofmann, Sigmund Freud, Alexander Shulgin, Terence McKenna, and Timothy Leary, who exposed and explored and proselytized about drugs. And you'll meet fictional users such as Samuel Taylor Coleridge, William Burroughs, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, Jerry Garcia, Syd Barrett, and Daevid Allen, who made lasting contributions to the cultural richness of their fictional species while under the influence of drugs.There's a whole world in here, and it's obviously not the one we live in. In our world drugs are bad, drug users are degenerates, and drugs lead only to damage, disease, and death. In our world heavy drug abusers like Keith Richards couldn't possibly live to a ripe old age. He must be made up. GOD: In the first section, Meze describes the contents of the chemical selection box that lies all around us. He explores how drug use informed all our major religions, and how hallucinogenic visions created god in the first place.POP: In this section, Meze follows the influence of hallucinogens through our art, literature, and music. He shows how young people used psychedelic drugs to make music and dance to the results from the beginning of the 20th century, and how this led to the eruption of creativity we remember as the 1960s. He explores in detail the technical breakthroughs, musical styles and albums that resulted, and reveals the ways in which they built today's nightclubs, rock concerts, and every large scale event from political rallies to the Olympic games.EVERYTHING ELSE: Finally, Meze looks at the current explosion in synthetic hallucinogens and discusses how they may fundamentally change our culture and creativity in the century to come. In an appendix, he gives novice experimenters Ten Rules For A Great First Trip, only one of which involves cotton candy.Informed, irreverent and controversial, Fantastic Trips is essential reading for anyone embarking on the psychedelic experience, and an indispensable briefing for everybody else.Special features include:
