Hold On to Your Dreams

Hold On to Your Dreams is the first biography of the musician and composer Arthur Russell, one of the most important but least known contributors to New York's downtown music scene during the 1970s and 1980s. With the exception of a few dance recordings, including "Is It All Over My Face?" and "Go Bang! #5", Russell's pioneering music was largely forgotten until 2004, when the posthumous release of two albums brought new attention to the artist. This revival of interest gained momentum with the issue of additional albums and the documentary film Wild Combination. Based on interviews with more than seventy of his collaborators, family members, and friends, Hold On to Your Dreams provides vita...

Appetite for Self-Destruction

For the first time, Appetite for Self-Destruction recounts the epic story of the precipitous rise and fall of the recording industry over the past three decades, when the incredible success of the CD turned the music business into one of the most glamorous, high-profile industries in the world -- and the advent of file sharing brought it to its knees. In a comprehensive, fast-paced account full of larger-than-life personalities, Rolling Stone contributing editor Steve Knopper shows that, after the incredible wealth and excess of the '80s and '90s, Sony, Warner, and the other big players brought about their own downfall through years of denial and bad decisions in the face of dramatic advance...

The Ware Tetralogy

"Rucker’s four Ware novels—Software, Wetware , Freeware , and Realware—form an extraordinary cyberweird future history with the heft of an epic fantasy novel and the speed of a quantum processor. Still exuberantly fresh despite their age, they primarily follow two characters (and their descendants): Cobb Anderson, who instigated the first robot revolution and is offered immortality by his grateful “children,” and stoner Sta-Hi Mooney, who (against his impaired better judgment) becomes an important figure in robot-human relations. Over several generations, humans, robots, drugs, and society evolve, but even weird drugs and the wisdom gathered from interstellar signals won’t stop t...

Don't Fence Me In

Cameron Ross lives a double life. Most people recognize him as the world's hottest leading man--the new Cary Grant. Those people would never recognize him as the man who wakes at the Flying V Ranch in Montana the morning after an epic drunk. That man is a scruffy horseman who seems to fit seamlessly in the mountain valley his ranch inhabits. That man’s name is Noah Campbell. Cameron is a myth. Noah is the real man who bought a ranch in order to remind himself of that fact. What's also real is his ranch manager, Dulcy McCann, who has risked everything to protect her position and her precocious sprite of a daughter, Hannah. Noah knows he should not develop an attachment to either of them. Dulcy thinks he's Noah, a businessman. Her world is Montana, not the fishbowl of notoriety he inhabits. As for Dulcy, she has enough on her hands balancing the rigors of the ranch and the much tougher job of raising her daughter. The last thing she needs in her life is a new boss so compelling he's interfering with both. Especially when they're threatened by secrets Dulcy can't share.
