From Robert Johnson to Aretha Franklin, Mahalia Jackson to John Lee Hooker, blues and gospel artists figure heavily in the mythology of twentieth-century culture. The styles in which they sang have proved hugely influential to generations of popular singers, from the wholesale adoptions of singers like Robert Cray or James Brown, to the subtler vocal appropriations of Mariah Carey. Their own music, and how it operates, is not, however, always seen as valid in its own right. This book provides an overview of both these genres, which worked together to provide an expression of twentieth-century black US experience. Their histories are unfolded and questioned; representative songs and lyrical imagery are analysed; perspectives are offered from the standpoint of the voice, the guitar, the piano, and also that of the working musician. The book concludes with a discussion of the impact the genres have had on mainstream musical culture.

As a member of Big in Japan The Slits and most famously Siouxsie and The Banshees and The Creatures Budgie became one of the era defining drummers in the much mythologised post punk scene of the late 1970s and early 1980s Growing up in working class St Helens in the 1960s Peter Clarke lost his mum as a young boy and it s her absence that haunts the pages of this book Disenchanted with art school inLiverpool Peter became Budgie and befriended the likes of Jayne Casey Holly Johnson Pete Burns Bill Drummond and other luminaires of the legendary Eric s Club before taking off for London and the big city heat of punk Budgie s unique technique and musical sensitivity endeared him to the all female group The Slits who asked him to play on their debut album Cut Subsequent touring with former members of the Sex Pistols and others from the post punk aristocracy firmly established Budgie s reputation for innovation But the beating heart of this painfully honest and frank account of a life often sabotaged by substance abuse and alcoholism is of course his long term position as Siouxsie and The Banshee s drummer and co writer alongside ex lover and ex wife Siouxsie Sioux In the Banshees and seminal side project The Creatures their creative partnership prod

El tango es una canción libertaria, nació como tal en los conventillos, para que un pobre desgraciado pudiera gritarle a la casera, a los funcionarios, al pueblo, las cosas que pasaban. Así nació el tango canción sin saberlo. (Del prólogo de Susana Rinaldi).

¿Qué es el tango? ¿Cómo fueron sus orígenes y desarrollo? TANGO PARA PRINCIPIANTES traza de manera sintética y sencilla la historia de esta música nacida en los arrabales del Río de la Plata, que luego se adueño de Europa y con el correr de los años se ha convertido en seña de identidad de lo argentino. Por sus paginas desfilan sus momentos fundamentales, sus mayores creadores y tambien los secretos del baile. Segun el clasico escritor argentino Leopoldo Marechal, el tango es la "posibilidad infinita"; otro escritor, paradigma del intelectual latinoamericano, Ernesto Sabato, agrega que se trata del fenomeno mas original de este area. Lo cierto es que la musica rioplatense, que ya ha cumplido un largo centenario, no ha perdido su vigencia y se reafirma en la actualidad con un renacimiento por el interes por parte de publicos de muy diversos lugares del mundo. Mas alla de la permanencia de figuras miticas, como Carlos Gardel, de la profundidad y la poesia de sus letras, el tango, como danza resurge entre los jovenes de muy diversas latitudes que lo adoptan como propio.
