Para recordar un momento y un lugar en concreto, mi mente vuela a canciones, albumes y bandas. Desde las emisoras AM de los setenta hasta cada uno de los microfonos que he usado, te puedo ir diciendo el que, el quien, el donde y el cuando desde las primeras notas de cualquier cancion que haya saltado de un altavoz a mi alma. O de mi alma al altavoz. Para algunas personas, el detonante de un recuerdo es un sabor, para otras puede ser un olor o algo que vean. Mi detonante es el sonido, como un recopilatorio inacabado a la espera de ser enviado.Aunque nunca he sido de los que coleccionan cosas, si colecciono momentos. En ese sentido, mi vida pasa ante mis ojos y a traves de mis oidos todos los dias. En este libro he tratado de reflejar algunos de esos momentos lo mejor que he podido. Por supuesto, esos recuerdos estan llenos de musica. Y a veces pueden ser ruidosos.Sube el volumen.

With Ozzy Osbourne at the helm, Black Sabbath sold tens of millions of albums during the 1970s. When he finally broke away to fly solo, Ozzy achieved the unthinkable. Against all odds, he delivered one of the seminal rock albums to mark his resurrection and went on to trounce his former band mates and evolve into a cult icon. Along the way, and over the course of dozens of albums and tours, Ozzy displayed an enviable knack of employing groundbreaking musicians, such as guitarists Randy Rhoads, Jake E. Lee and Zakk Wylde and a series of world renowned bassists, drummers and keyboard players. Each took the opportunity to stamp their mark on what quickly became a legendary, unpredictable act. This then is the story of the Ozzy Osbourne band - in their own words. As told by Bob Daisley, Lee Kerslake, Tommy Aldridge, Bernie Torme, Brad Gillis, Steve Vai, Phil Soussan, Carmine Appice and many more.

The Story of the Christmas No. 1 is more than just a nostalgic music book. It subtly explores pop culture and social history, examining our relationship with Christmas, how our national identity is reflected in the music we listen to together, and how the music industry has changed. It also reveals how the Christmas No. 1 reflects the current social reality of today and how technology and culture have reshaped the way music is consumed.Marc Burrows explores the peculiarly British cultural phenomenon of the Christmas singles chart. Why is it seen as so ubiquitous and so relatable to the audience that its literally a plot point in Love Actually? The festive top spot was something that, prior to 1973, wasnt particularly important but has since become a cornerstone of the December news cycle and, for years, an annual cultural moment ... that may have reached the end of its life.He traces the origins of the concept, through the Beatles and the-years-when-it-wasnt-really-a-thing, the Glam rock boom, Band Aid, novelty records, the X-Factor years and the awful Sausage Roll charity records of the 2020s, supported by interviews with figures involved in some of the most iconic hits and notable chart battles of the past half century and obsessive, in-depth research. He explores the sometimes fascinating and sometimes weird and unlikely stories behind some of the most beloved (and some of the most utterly loathed) songs in British musical history.
