Feel Like Going Home: Portraits in Blues and Rock'n'Roll: Deep Cuts

Autor Peter Guralnick
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 noi 2024
Feel Like Going Home vividly brings to life such early blues masters as Muddy Waters , Skip James, and Howlin' Wolf, along with illuminating excursions into the blues-based rock 'n' roll of Jerry Lee Lewis, Charlie Rich, and the Sun Records label. With unique insight and unparalleled access, celebrated author Peter Guralnick (Last Train to Memphis: The Rise of Elvis Presley) dramatically depicts the people, the songs, and the performances that forever changed not only the American music scene but America itself.

With a brand-new introduction by David Keenan to cast new light on the book today, and published for the first time as part of White Rabbit's Deep Cuts series, Feel Like Going Home takes its place once again as a classic in the world of music literature.

Recenzii

One of the essential works in music writing
Feel Like Going Home brings [the music] back alive better than any book of its kind ever published
A powerful, personal book about blues, rock n roll, and the musicians who play it . . . brought me closer to every figure it sought to illuminate . . .
Essential reading
We feel the passion of Guralnicks love for the music and also the real personalities of the bluesmen he interviews
One of the most insightful books written on popular music
The most emotionally and intellectually satisfying rock book yet to appear
Nobody digs deeper into what makes [these musicians] tick, and nobody conveys their achievement with more grace, details, and empathy
[A] graceful and moving survey
A fine introduction to the blues . . . Guralnicks portraits shine with their own special aura of warmth and care
The definitive story of the blues impact on rock.... A modern classic

Notă biografică

Peter Guralnick has been called "a national resource" by Nat Hentoff for work that has argued passionately and persuasively for the vitality of this country's intertwined black and white musical traditions. His books include the prize-winning two-volume biography of Elvis Presley, Last Train to Memphis andCareless Love. Of the first Bob Dylan wrote, "Elvis steps from the pages. You can feel him breathe. This book cancels out all others." Of the biography as a whole, the New York Times Book Review declared in a lead review, "It must be ranked among the most ambitious and crucial biographical undertakings yet devoted to a major American figure of the second half of the twentieth century." Other books include an acclaimed trilogy on American roots music, Sweet Soul Music, Lost Highway, and Feel Like Going Home; the biographical inquiry Searching for Robert Johnson; and the novel, Nighthawk Blues. His latest book,Dream Boogie: The Triumph of Sam Cooke, has been hailed by the San Fransisco Chronicle as "monumental, panoramic...an epic tale told against a backdrop of brilliant, shimmering music, intense personal melodrama, and vast social changes." He is currently at work on a biography of Sam Phillips.
