Knapp dreissig Jahre lang hielten die Grateful Dead mit ihrer Musik, vor allem aber mit ihren Live- Konzerten die Aufbruchstimmung der Sechziger für ihre Fans, die "Deadheads", am Leben. Seit dem Ableben ihres Gitarristen Jerry Garcia am 9. August 1995 ist die Gruppe ein Kapitel Rock-Geschichte. Rock Scully schrieb es nieder. Seine Erinnerungen sind eine Reise zurück in den "Sommer der Liebe" nach San Francisco, in die Zeit des LSD und der großen Hippie-Kommunen. Mitreisende auf diesem aufregenden Trip sind Legenden wie Janis Joplin, Ken Kesey, William S. Burroughs, The Who und Crosby, Stills And Nash. Scully, selbst ein Heroin-Überlebender, schildert aber auch offen und ungeschönt den zunehmenden Verfall und die gespaltene Persönlichkeit von Band-Leader Jerry Garcia, der für seine Anhänger eine geradezu messianische Ausstrahlung besass. Dieses Buch ist die Neuauflage des Hannibal-Titels An American Odyssey - in neuer Gestaltung und Ausstattung.

An exclusive photographic diary of Andy Warhol''s life in 1964-5.

Renowned rock iconographer David Dalton, biographer of Jim Morrison, James Dean, Janis Joplin, and many others has written an astonishing monograph of this rock ''n'' roll "anykid", Sid Vicious.

Argues that Jim Morrison, the leader of the Doors, who died at the age of twenty-seven, was the last in a long line of "pop utopians"--such as Joplin, Kerouac, Hendrix, and Dean

`In all areas of human endeavour, time and again an individual appears who, due to a multitude of personal attributes, elevates his or her field to a hitherto unknown height. Such an individual was William Primrose. His name and the viola are synonymous.'' Janos Starker This unique book is the result of a series of conversations with Primrose in the last years before his death in 1982. David Dalton describes how he came to the great artist armed with every question he could think of pertaining to performing on and teaching the viola. The lively dialogue contains a wealth of illuminating advice for the student on the technicalities of playing the viola. It is, however, far more than a technical guide. The two violists discuss the unique position of their instrument - `an instrument without tradition'' is Primrose''s bald description. They cover the topic of repertoire with fascinating insights into the performance of the great concertos by Bartók and Walton, with which Primrose was so closely associated. Still more invaluable advice emerges from the discussion of Primrose''s own experience, on the art of performance, on demeanour on stage, on competitions, on recordings, and on preparing for a career. The book is a tribute to one of the greatest artists of this century.
