This all carries some truth, but it does nothing to explain how, in 1959, America’s great indigenous art form, jazz, reached the height of its power and popularity, thanks to a number of Black geniuses so legendary they go by one name—Monk, Mingus, Rollins, Coltrane, and, above all, Miles. Nineteen fifty-nine saw Miles, Coltrane, Bill Evans, and more come together to record what is widely considered the greatest jazz album of all time, and certainly the bestselling: Kind of Blue.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">3 Shades of Blue is James Kaplan’s magnificent account of the paths of the three giants to the mountaintop of 1959 and beyond. It’s a book about music, and business, and race, and heroin, and the towns that gave jazz its home, from New Orleans and New York to Kansas City, Philadelphia, Chicago, and LA. It’s an astonishing meditation on creativity and the strange hothouses that can produce its full flowering. It’s a book about the great forebears of this golden age, particularly Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie, and the disrupters, like Ornette Coleman, who would take the music down truly new paths. And it’s about why the world of jazz most people know is a museum to this never-replicated period.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">But above all, 3 Shades of Blue is a book about three very different men—their struggles, their choices, their tragedies, their greatness. Bill Evans had a gruesome downward spiral; John Coltrane took the mystic’s path into a space far away from mainstream concerns. Miles had three or four sea changes in him before the end. The tapestry of their lives is, in Kaplan’s hands, an American odyssey with no direction home. It is also a masterpiece, a book about jazz that is as big as America.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjilWKxthNhlYXkdSbDiSbhP6wtLaN96wjqoHL30LhXe51J5QKnzPGSaN7qYZ0Fl83KOyb2rRY_6-2Xff7bdxad1WYbdBIrWldGFTQoX7R0jkFQ8F18sYgEEXfmonkugW9uAa8PapXEWiFyyWIkpW42k8P2hPWSf3hu9S6E7bWgkpkSfOKx8NfCXA/s1500/The%20Freaks%20Came%20Out%20to%20Write-%20The%20Definitive%20History%20of%20the%20Village%20Voice,%20the%20Radical%20Paper%20That%20Changed%20American%20Culture.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1500" data-original-width="967" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjilWKxthNhlYXkdSbDiSbhP6wtLaN96wjqoHL30LhXe51J5QKnzPGSaN7qYZ0Fl83KOyb2rRY_6-2Xff7bdxad1WYbdBIrWldGFTQoX7R0jkFQ8F18sYgEEXfmonkugW9uAa8PapXEWiFyyWIkpW42k8P2hPWSf3hu9S6E7bWgkpkSfOKx8NfCXA/w258-h400/The%20Freaks%20Came%20Out%20to%20Write-%20The%20Definitive%20History%20of%20the%20Village%20Voice,%20the%20Radical%20Paper%20That%20Changed%20American%20Culture.jpg" width="258" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><a href="https://amzn.to/3TztN4z">The Freaks Came Out to Write: The Definitive History of the Village Voice,</a></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><a href="https://amzn.to/3TztN4z"> the Radical Paper That Changed American Culture</a></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">You either were there or you wanted to be. A defining New York City institution co-founded by Norman Mailer, The Village Voice was the first newspaper to cover hip-hop, the avant-garde art scene, and Off-Broadway with gravitas. It reported on the AIDS crisis with urgency and seriousness when other papers dismissed it as a gay disease. In 1979, the Voice’s Wayne Barrett uncovered Donald Trump as a corrupt con artist before anyone else was paying attention. It invented new forms of criticism and storytelling and revolutionized journalism, spawning hundreds of copycats. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">With more than 200 interviews, including two-time Pulitzer Prize winner, Colson Whitehead, cultural critic Greg Tate, gossip columnist Michael Musto, and feminist writers Vivian Gornick and Susan Brownmiller, former Voice writer Tricia Romano pays homage to the paper that saved NYC landmarks from destruction and exposed corrupt landlords and judges. With interviews featuring post-punk band, Blondie, sportscaster Bob Costas, and drummer Max Weinberg, of Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band, in this definitive oral history, Romano tells the story of journalism, New York City and American culture—and the most famous alt-weekly of all time.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjEPR9ah3NFSag_Odo_JoVhidtuz8uYjw1NXfVEe-vUUdpAD2EKjCr1OEjZgl9mfpmQcF7IrtqGPN3QmfaJu4jEHX9ZdwonXyxLuu2uxHAryYJakblRbqV6XxcdoSZpcm898S98aIObWl5rTFKf6Ccw-NZZW5UQsZzTgCJdFnqxvPf1AbYDyTsUOA/s1000/Drums%20&%20Demons-%20The%20Tragic%20Journey%20of%20Jim%20Gordon.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="662" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjEPR9ah3NFSag_Odo_JoVhidtuz8uYjw1NXfVEe-vUUdpAD2EKjCr1OEjZgl9mfpmQcF7IrtqGPN3QmfaJu4jEHX9ZdwonXyxLuu2uxHAryYJakblRbqV6XxcdoSZpcm898S98aIObWl5rTFKf6Ccw-NZZW5UQsZzTgCJdFnqxvPf1AbYDyTsUOA/w265-h400/Drums%20&%20Demons-%20The%20Tragic%20Journey%20of%20Jim%20Gordon.jpg" width="265" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><a href="https://amzn.to/3ThDnaP">Drums & Demons: The Tragic Journey of Jim Gordon</a></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Jim Gordon was the greatest rock drummer of all-time. Just ask the world-famous musicians who played with him—John Lennon, George Harrison, Eric Clapton, Tom Petty, Frank Zappa, Steely Dan, Ringo Starr, Harry Nilsson, Joe Cocker, and many more. They knew him for his superior playing, extraordinary training and technique, preternatural intuition, perfect sense of time, and his “big fill”—the mathematically-precise clatter that exploded like detonating fireworks on his drum breaks. And as best-selling author and award-winning journalist Joel Selvin reveals, the story of Jim Gordon is the most brilliant, turbulent, and wrenching rock opera ever. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">This riveting narrative follows Gordon as the very chemicals in his brain that gifted him also destroyed him. His head crowded with a hellish gang of voices screaming at him, demanding obedience, Gordon descended from the absolute heights of the rock world—playing with the most famous musicians of his generation—to working with a Santa Monica dive-bar band for $30 a night. And then he committed the most shocking crime in rock history. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">With full cooperation from the late Gordon's family, and based on his trademark extensive, detailed research, Joel Selvin’s account is at once an epic journey through an artist’s monumental musical contributions, a rollicking history of rock drumming, and a terrifying downward spiral into unimaginable madness that Gordon fought a valiant but losing battle against. One of the great untold stories of rock is finally being told.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-r_-Ce6OwW0K8TSzQmP1m9_zERWxhQP1Xallt9fpEJ2V0dv7kycX20IQkFswsdQkFkWQRO9DZOvvAA4AyEi4cMp2MUVB1J-sLcF2n6C-gNvD6PKMdtnVh4wH8GIoxPVkyTsxeGzbCteskeiAnDzjF9C6RRAon79Ky4S8Y3V6dAT9I_0KOJZlvxQ/s1500/Defy%20the%20Storm-%20Star%20Wars-%20The%20High%20Republic.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1500" data-original-width="1015" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-r_-Ce6OwW0K8TSzQmP1m9_zERWxhQP1Xallt9fpEJ2V0dv7kycX20IQkFswsdQkFkWQRO9DZOvvAA4AyEi4cMp2MUVB1J-sLcF2n6C-gNvD6PKMdtnVh4wH8GIoxPVkyTsxeGzbCteskeiAnDzjF9C6RRAon79Ky4S8Y3V6dAT9I_0KOJZlvxQ/w271-h400/Defy%20the%20Storm-%20Star%20Wars-%20The%20High%20Republic.jpg" width="271" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><a href="https://amzn.to/43igOYb">Defy the Storm: Star Wars: The High Republic</a></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">The Galactic Republic is in chaos following the Nihil’s shocking destruction of the gleaming space station Starlight Beacon.

D. Salinger—gives us an unconventional portrait of arguably America’s most eminent jazz singer. He shrewdly focuses on the last year of her life—with relevant flashbacks to provide context—to evoke and examine the persistent magnificence of Holiday’s artistry when it was supposed to have declined, in the wake of her drug abuse, relationships with violent men, and run-ins with the law.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">During her lifetime and after her death, Billie Holiday was often depicted as a down-on-her-luck junkie severely lacking in self-esteem. Relying on interviews with people who knew her, and new material unearthed in private collections and institutional archives, Bitter Crop—a reference to the last two words of Strange Fruit, her moving song about lynching—limns Holiday as a powerful, ambitious woman who overcame her flaws to triumph as a vital figure of American popular music.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBbHJJ6KFakCRDefFwfM6N1u8VN3rSpMNO8FWOnjOXiag7quahvkVdpMpbL5kMYEBOOOiwih4yxmNqAQpI805BF0hbWyM_XSghp11Qf86-3ClW6YLxJIeuag8iflKpbD3mDgq8Uy1t3SdoLjh4cj8sn-MJtF2Q4XoNBRjiUUOVfDQvaJ-nkQRl-A/s1500/MARVEL%20STUDIOS'%20BLACK%20PANTHER-%20WAKANDA%20FOREVER%20-%20THE%20ART%20OF%20THE%20MOVIE.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1245" data-original-width="1500" height="333" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBbHJJ6KFakCRDefFwfM6N1u8VN3rSpMNO8FWOnjOXiag7quahvkVdpMpbL5kMYEBOOOiwih4yxmNqAQpI805BF0hbWyM_XSghp11Qf86-3ClW6YLxJIeuag8iflKpbD3mDgq8Uy1t3SdoLjh4cj8sn-MJtF2Q4XoNBRjiUUOVfDQvaJ-nkQRl-A/w400-h333/MARVEL%20STUDIOS'%20BLACK%20PANTHER-%20WAKANDA%20FOREVER%20-%20THE%20ART%20OF%20THE%20MOVIE.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><a href="https://amzn.to/3PltlEJ">MARVEL STUDIOS' BLACK PANTHER: </a></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><a href="https://amzn.to/3PltlEJ">WAKANDA FOREVER - THE ART OF THE MOVIE</a></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">In the wake of T'Challa's death, Wakanda is left without a Black Panther.

Generally considered as two marginal years in the Who’s career, they are only apparently so.

At the Who’s first Winterland show in February 1968, just a few hundred hippies turn up. In March 1976, the venue is crammed to capacity—5,000 tickets are sold. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Still, as the Examiner noted, “The Who could have sold eight times as many,” since 43,000 requests for tickets were sent! This all-access look at those two shows is a glimpse of what it was like to see the Who at Bill Graham’s legendary concert venue, and features firsthand accounts and previously unpublished photos by fans at the shows, as well as details the band behind the scenes and onstage.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3IFdFlKHQIwiAZ53PjjXUloHbgYwk7nJcwA4WObiJvJrKqvd6W8buHl5KjZijm3jRbo85TwYGD1Db1GQkKzeFHWoJnRVf0D9y8YURaIP5E7IITYzAPOujAhxHpVbj64yRGrvYTRqBzrR26WonfI31jwUhTdfpqgcFz0YZt62vT_vAIuU_T2sBcQ/s1500/Unconditionally%20Mad,%20Part%201%20-%20The%20First%20Unauthorized%20History%20of%20Mad%20Magazine.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1500" data-original-width="1000" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3IFdFlKHQIwiAZ53PjjXUloHbgYwk7nJcwA4WObiJvJrKqvd6W8buHl5KjZijm3jRbo85TwYGD1Db1GQkKzeFHWoJnRVf0D9y8YURaIP5E7IITYzAPOujAhxHpVbj64yRGrvYTRqBzrR26WonfI31jwUhTdfpqgcFz0YZt62vT_vAIuU_T2sBcQ/w266-h400/Unconditionally%20Mad,%20Part%201%20-%20The%20First%20Unauthorized%20History%20of%20Mad%20Magazine.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><a href="https://amzn.to/3IwDmeq">Unconditionally Mad, Part 1 -</a></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><a href="https://amzn.to/3IwDmeq"> The First Unauthorized History of Mad Magazine</a></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">This two-volume set (Part 1 and Part B) covers the entire 70+ year history of MAD magazine.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Part 1 covers from when Max C. Gaines ventured into comic book publishing in the 1930s and eventually founded E.C. Comics. E.C. started out publishing titles for small children and Bible stories, but after an unfortunate accident, son William M. Gaines took over and created legendary comic book titles such as Tales from the Crypt and Weird Science. Bill Gaines hired Harvey Kurtzman who created Two-Fisted Tales and Frontline Combat. Kurtzman wanted to increase his income, Gaines suggested adding a humor title and in 1952, MAD was born. In 1956, Kurtzman left and was replaced by former Crypt Editor, Al Feldstein. The story carries on through Feldstein’s 30-year tenure as the Editor of MAD.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">The lawsuits, the hirings, the firings, the ghosts, the flatbugs, the spies, the FBI, the plants, the gooney birds and the celebrities are all contained here, along with many new and archival interviews with The Usual Gang of Idiots.
