The Unbroken Circle

Using a rich selection of reviews, interviews, and articles, Metting (American literature, U. of New Hampshire, Manchester) explores and attempts to codify the creative process behind the work of these two musicians, exploring the wide range of styles they borrowed and adapted. Because of their lifelong interest and use of these traditional musical forms, the history of blues and folk music is interwoven into Metting's story, which is made lively by the frequent quotes from Ry Cooder and Taj Mahal.

Have a Little Faith

"Have a Little Faith is not merely a fan's notes; this is a riveting book that tells the stories of one of our greatest roots musicians and the tenacity that's grown out of his enduring passion for music." — No Depression A journey through an artist's quest for success, deep dive into substance abuse, family tragedy, and ultimate triumph By the mid-1980s, singer-songwriter John Hiatt had been dropped from three record labels, burned through two marriages, and had fallen deep into substance abuse. It took a stint in rehab and a new marriage to inspire him, then a producer and an A&R man to have a little faith. By February 1987, he was back in the studio on a shoestring budget with a hand-pi...

Lament from Epirus: An Odyssey into Europe's Oldest Surviving Folk Music

A Wall Street Journal Best Book of 2018 In the tradition of Patrick Leigh Fermor and Geoff Dyer, a Grammy-winning producer discovers a powerful and ancient folk music tradition. In a gramophone shop in Istanbul, renowned record collector Christopher C. King uncovered some of the strangest—and most hypnotic—sounds he had ever heard. The 78s were immensely moving, seeming to tap into a primal well of emotion inaccessible through contemporary music. The songs, King learned, were from Epirus, an area straddling southern Albania and northwestern Greece and boasting a folk tradition extending back to the pre-Homeric era. To hear this music is to hear the past. Lament from Epirus is an unforget...

With the Grain

Until his death in 2000, at the age of 48, he worked tirelessly sustaining his various and diverse projects which extended from the founding of the Boarder's Community Woodland to the establishment of Woodschool, near Jedburgh, a centre designed to cultivate talented young woodworkers in the use of the rich resources of the Scottish forests. However, Tim was most famous for his own striking sculptures and furniture pieces created from a mixture of mainly elm, oak and ash. His inspiration was heavily drawn from these materials, resulting in gloriously organic celebrations of the natural world. Royal Botanic Garden of Edinburgh and introduced with a foreword by HRH The Prince of Wales, aims to bring together all the different strands of Stead's career. A collection of memoirs, interviews, poems and essays, and lavishly illustrated in colour throughout, With the Grain is a fascinating and fitting memorial to an inspirational man whose deep love and understanding of nature touched every aspect of his life and shines through every chair, poem and pupil left behind.
