Pomerol
Three years in the making, "Pomerol" is the definitive book on one of Bordeaux's least known appellations. Authored by Neal Martin, founder of Wine-Journal and presently a contributor to The Wine Advocate, it is a personal portrayal that seeks to convey the spirit of Pomerol both past and present. Within its pages readers can discover the real name of Jean-Pierre Moueix and what transpired on Jean-Claude Berrouet's first day working for him; the courage of Gabrielle de Sauvanelle during the Revolution; the untold story of "Domaine de Mautretat" and whose vineyards Alexendre Thienpont once mistakenly picked. The book features a detailed analysis of the history and viticulture of Pomerol, plus a new perspective on its terroir; forty-three in-depth profiles of Pomerol estates with a wealth of information hitherto unpublished; interviews with all the major proprietors and winemakers including amongst others: Jean-Claude Berrouet, Denis Durantou, Jacques Guinaudeau, Christian Moueix, Michel Rolland and Alexandre Thienpont; vertical tastings conducted especially for this book; a 100-page "A-Z of Pomerol" detailing almost 400 crus, past and present; and more.
Starting At Zero
It didn't take long after Jimi Hendrix's death for the artist to become a myth of music. He has been surrounded by a shroud of intrigue since he first came into the public eye, and the mystery has only grown with time. Much has been written and said about him by experts and fans and critics, some of it true and some of it not; Starting at Zero will set the record straight. This is Hendrix in his own words. The lyricism and rhythm of Jimi Hendrix's writing will be of no surprise to his fans. Hendrix wrote prolifically throughout his life and he left behind a trove of scribbled-on hotel stationary, napkins and cigarette cartons. Starting at Zero weaves the scraps and bits together fluidly with...
Gathered From Coincidence
Combining the personal memories and critical analysis of a self-confessed pop addict with a wealth of contemporary documentary evidence, Gathered From Coincidence reconstructs a truly momentous era to tell the story of the music of the Sixties year by year. By tracing in parallel the origins and development of the recording careers of major talents on both sides of the Atlantic - the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Beach Boys, Bob Dylan, Dusty Springfield and many more besides - this account shows how they traded creativity with one another. All the great Sixties' hits - as well as a host of less well-known gems - are described in the context of the charts of the day, tracking the ups and d...
Crime Scenes
The essays in this collection are based on papers given at a conference on detective fiction in European culture, held at the University of Exeter in September 1997. The range of topics covered is designed to show not only the presence and variety of narratives of detection across different European countries and their different media (although there is a predictable emphasis on the novel). It also illustrates the fertility of the genre, its openness to a spectrum of readings with different emphases, formal as well as thematic. Approaches to detective fiction have often tended to confine them-selves to ‘symptomatic’ interpretation, where details of the fictional world represented are use...
The Music Documentary
The Music Documentary offers a wide-range of approaches, across key moments in the history of popular music, in order to define and interrogate this prominent genre of film-making. The writers in this volume argue persuasively that the music documentary must be considered as an essential cultural artefact in documenting stars and icons, and musicians and their times – particularly for those figures whose fame was achieved posthumously. In this collection of fifteen essays, the reader will find comprehensive discussions of the history of music documentaries, insights in their production and promotion, close studies of documentaries relating to favourite bands or performers, and approaches to questions of music documentary and form, from the celluloid to the digital age.
