Woodstock es el festival más mítico de la historia del rock, ¿por qué? Parece claro que los astros se alinearon: una guerra ininteligible a la otra punta del mundo, una juventud hastiada de las mentiras que la generacion anterior dio por buenas y un futuro incierto llevaron a la creacion del festival acuariano de Woodstock (Ulster, Nueva York), donde no les dejaron celebrar el festival, y donde la contracultura hippy del momento engullo e hizo suyas las premisas de aquella juventud que no deseaba ser lo mismo que sus padres, ni para ellos ni para sus hijos. Medio millon de personas acudieron y destruyeron la idea de que tanta gente junta provocaria incidentes. Fueron tres dias de paz y armonia, de una comunion por el respeto a la vida y a la creatividad. Como autor auno tres de mis pasiones: la musica, la psicologia social y la sociologia para intentar explicar el resplandor y la mitologia de este festival que nos regalo algunos momentos magicos y algo que parece que nunca regresara: la calidad cultural como bandera de la lucha contra la injusticia Lo demas fue lluvia, barro, hierba, acido y excitacion por las palabras y los sonidos alli expresados.

El músico y productor Raül Refree nos ofrece su visión del acto creativo. «La creación artística es un camino apenas señalizado, no hay indicaciones en los desvíos ni un cielo estrellado que ilumine

Las biografías de Small Faces, Faces y Slim Chance se deslizan por una parte muy importante de estas páginas, pero por ellas tambien surgen otro buen puñado de nombres ilustres de la música del siglo xx. A Steve Marriott, Kenney Jones, Ian McLagan, Rod Stewart y Ron Wood se unen aqui Eric Clapton, Pete Townshend, Paul McCartney, Jimmy Page, Bill Wyman y un largo etcetera porque, de un modo u otro, todos tuvieron un denominador comun en la figura de Ronnie Lane. ¿Y quien fue Ronnie Lane? Responsable de la creacion de miticos albumes como Ogdens Nut Gone Flake y Ooh La La, las reglas de la industria le otorgaron, no obstante, un papel secundario. Luchador incansable, su caracter risueño, idealista, espiritual, romantico y despreocupado de lo material resultaron la antitesis de cualquier estrella del rock que se preciara. Toda una personalidad que sellaria su devenir, entre errores y aciertos, hasta el final de sus dias. En definitiva, Lane fue siempre antes un ser humano que una celebridad. Por eso en los tiempos que corren, donde la mayoria apenas tiene nada que decir pero lo expresa con sentimiento, se hacia urgente reivindicar del pasado a este singular musico.

Este ensayo reivindica el papel de las mujeres que han sido silenciadas o ignoradas en la historia oficial. Carolina Pecharromán, periodista especializada en igualdad, rescata figuras femeninas que marcaron hitos en la ciencia, el arte, la politica y el activismo, pero que no recibieron el reconocimiento merecido. A traves de una narrativa accesible y rigurosa, la autora propone una revolucion simbolica que visibilice a las invisibles y transforme el relato historico desde una perspectiva feminista.

The story of Manic Street Preachers is unique in pop Raging out of the stricken mining communities of south Wales in the late 80s they were bonded by friendships family ties and a self styled geometry of contempt whereby James Dean Bradfield and Sean Moore would orchestrate the daring intellectual broadsides written by Richey Edwards and Nicky Wire Seemingly condemned to mere cult status by a cruel juncture of artistic triumph commercial failure and personal despair the story took an agonising twist when the tragedy of Edwards 1995 disappearance was followed by a remarkable rebirth built upon A Design For Life s hymn to the band s working class roots and then the award winning multi million selling album Everything Must Go a majestic soundtrack to history and loss Less than five years later Manic Street Preachers played to 60 000 at the national stadium of Wales and had their second UK Number 1 single Subsequent output has confirmed the band as both a wellspring of restless creativity and a barometer of the cultural conversation Because it was music that saved them it s through the prism of their music that Keith Cameron tells the definitive history of Manic Street Preachers drawing on many hours of new interviews to dive deep into 168 songs
