Book excerpt: During the 1950s and 1960s, Asbury Park, New Jersey, was the place to be-to stroll along the boardwalk, to sunbathe, and, most importantly, to listen to live music. But since the city fell into ruin, culminating in the race riots of the 1970s, many were left to wonder if the former rock 'n' roll mecca had been silenced forever. In Local Heroes, author Anders Mårtensson and photographer Jörgen Johansson revisit the myths, legends, and romantic visions of the music scene in a town that is striving to make a comeback. While the story of Asbury Park is inseparable from widely popular artists, such as Bruce Springsteen, Steven van Zandt, and Southside Johnny Lyon, Local Heroes pays tribute to these musicians alongside the many other talents who stayed behind, playing in local clubs, helping to forge what became known as the "Jersey Shore sound." In a series of original interviews, readers will hear first-hand from the people who wrote, performed, and lived the music. Accompanied by exclusive photographs, musical personalities such as Max Weinberg, Garry Tallent, Richie "LaBamba" Rosenberg, Danny Federici, Bill Chinnock, Vini Lopez, Pete Yorn, and many others are brought to life. Whether the redevelopment efforts underway in Asbury Park today will someday serve as the stage for music legends of tomorrow is a story that has yet to play out. But for now, rock 'n' roll fans can delight in a stunning tribute to a city and its talents whose music continues to play on.

Download or read book Local Heroes written by David Erdal and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Local Heroestells the extraordinary and inspiring story of Loch Fyne Oysters, the highly successful and environmentally pioneering seafood company on the west coast of Scotland. The founders were unlikely entrepreneurs- Johnny Noble, an extrovert aristocrat drowning in debt, and Andy Lane, a marine biologist who had been committed to environmentalism from the age of eight. The sudden death of Noble precipitated four bids from companies and individuals keen to acquire the brand, but in 2003 an all-employee buyout fought off the would-be 'predators'. The hook recounts the challenging but impassioned journey of the founders and employee-owners as they strive to make a success of the business. Local Heroes is an absorbing tale, covering environmental business practice, the glory and travails of entrepreneurship, and also the remarkable liberation into shared ownership which, properly managed, inspires commitment, productivity, job satisfaction and widely shared prosperity.
