Alternate Song Inspirations
THE BOOK THAT'S A GAME, OR THE GAME THAT'S A BOOK. Pat Kelly comes up with hilarious Alternate Song Inspirations of some of our favourite songs. Most are eye rollers like how A Hispanic Chauffeur is the inspiration for the Carrie Underwood hit "Jesus Take The Wheel", and some are just down right hilarious like how A Runny Nose was the inspiration for A Taste of Honey's disco hit "Boogie Oogie Oogie" It's a fun and easy read, with lots of pictures for all you drummers out there. As Kelly suggests, '...get together with friends, open a bottle, fire up the bong, get the potato chips out and make a game of it! ...Rock On!!!'"A must read & play for the music trivia minded with a penchant for unexpected twists and turns" Jeff Woods, radio host, Legends of Classic Rock"More fun than a bag of yarn."Dale Harrison, The Headstones, Allanah Myles

Of Irish Blood

Irish Above All
Mary Pat Kelly draws upon family heritage to continue the story of Nora Kelly--begun in Of Irish Blood--with a striking novel of historical fiction in Irish Above All. After ten years in Paris, where she learned photography and became part of the movement that invented modern art, Chicago-born, Irish-American Nora Kelly is at last returning home. Her skill as a photographer will help her cousin Ed Kelly in his rise to Mayor of Chicago. But when she captures the moment an assassin’s bullet narrowly misses President-elect Franklin Roosevelt and strikes Anton Cermak in February 1933, she enters a world of international intrigue and danger. Now, she must balance family obligations against her encounters with larger-than-life historical characters, such as Joseph Kennedy, Big Bill Thompson, Al Capone, Mussolini, and the circle of women who surround F.D.R. Nora moves through the Roaring Twenties, the Great Depression, and World War II, but it’s her unexpected trip to Ireland that transforms her life.
