It is indeed an honor to witness the exceptional teams from Prestige Studios, Great Guns, and The Spencer Company undertake the exciting task of adapting the book, 'Lords of the Sunset Strip.' A decade ago, Blackie Dammett approached me with his autobiography manuscript, and I endorsed its publication through The Spencer Company. I can vouch for the riveting narrative and the profound impact it could leave on audiences. This life story is also an anthology of moments and memories from Blackie's journey through Hollywood and beyond, replete with intriguing tales of globally recognized figures.
The tumultuous life of Blackie Dammett, primarily set against the backdrop of the 1980s Los Angeles music scene, is a gripping story that warrants sharing. The Sunset Strip, with its chaotic splendor, offers a rich canvas of fascinating tales waiting to be narrated. This story embodies rock and roll in its purest form.
I am eager to see the magic that Michelle Nickelson, Laura Gregory, James Braham, Adrian Sender, and David Jackson will weave into this project. They form an exceptional team. Their plans for expansion in Los Angeles and the UAE are equally promising.
The birth of rock and roll on the Sunset Strip was a defining moment in music history. The legacy of this era will be elegantly encapsulated in narratives like 'Lords of the Sunset Strip.' I am looking forward to this project and am excited for its fruition.

Borealism is the project of young producer and composer Peik Wahl based out of Spokane, Washington. Growing up and living in the North West of America, Peik has been in touch with nature since the youngest age. His music is deeply influenced by the elements and the essence of nature that he draws from forests and mountains separating Washington and British Columbia. His major musical influences are to name a few Boards of Canada, Shlohmo, Teebs, Flying Lotus and Bonobo. He started playing music at the age of 10 with the trombone. And picked a few more instruments through high school playing in jazz and symphonic bands. He started writing his own music at 18 when a friend gave him a copy of FL studio. Later on he shared and expressed his emotions with the Borealism project where he could communicate something special and unique to him. As the name is an homage to the geographical biome he calls home. @_borealism @hinestheartist @urban_waves #producer #biography #musicianslife #musicbiography #musiciansofinstagram #musicambient #electronicmusic #borealism #urbanwavesrecords https://www.instagram.com/p/CMKx3OELJya/?igshid=n3z0gp6ob2lz

I assume this means “Short Biography of Bach”. If you can speak Russian, I am sure this contains interesting facts!

Another score from this weekend- this old biography of John Lee Hooker that I haven’t read in eons. If I had to describe his music it would be “magic”. It’s not about technique, it’s pure feel. You listen to him and you fall under his spell. It’s actually great for going to sleep to in that regard (the more acoustic stuff). Furry Lewis also has that quality to me. That magic, that voodoo, whatever it is...blues! Also here’s an old Ibanez DE-7 delay I used to use. I hope it works! I remember liking this pedal, and folks seem to be shelling out $$$ for them on reverb.

A crooning #bookfacefriday friends! . Frank Sinatra was the greatest entertainer of his age, invigorating American popular song with innovative phrasing and a mastery of drama and emotion. Drawing upon interviews with hundreds of his collaborators as well as with "The Voice" himself, this book chronicles, critiques, and celebrates his five-decade career. Will Friedwald examines and evaluates all the classic and less familiar songs with the same astute, witty perceptions that earned him acclaim for his other books about jazz and pop singing. Now completely revised and updated, and including an authoritative discography and rare photos of recording sessions and performances, Sinatra! The Song Is You is an invaluable resource for enthusiasts and an unparalleled guide through Sinatra's vast musical legacy.

Last week we released "Echoes" by @ideism_, a part of our ongoing "Parallel Voices" series. The prolific producer and keyboard player pulled out all the stops on this one to craft a tapestry of psychedelic and electronic jazz, evoking the textures of dreams and memory through swirling rhythms and playful synthesizer melodies. Based in the Pacific Northwest, ideism has been building his catalogue over the years, releasing with Inner Ocean Records, Black Noise Records, Chillhop, Fuzzoscope, Phonolith and SVNSET WAVES. As a writer and musician he is also 1/4th of the group Midnight Theory, a groove outfit steeped in the influence of funk, breakbeat and hip hop. We hope you dive into his extensive catalog, and are extremely honored to have released his new single "Echoes" available now on the streaming platform of your choice! @ideism_ @slowya.roll @nocivo_hq @radiojuicy @urban_waves #musicbiography #artistprofile #musicannouncement #artistbio #jazzy #nujazz #brokenbeat #instrumentalhiphop #jazz #jazzmusic #modernjazz https://www.instagram.com/p/CRWydhCrUD3/?utm_medium=tumblr

Well, I don't think 52 books will happen at this pace, but onto book #2 of 2016 nonetheless. Musician biographies is a theme so far. #tomjones #musicbiography
