Download or read book As I Recall ... written by Larry Steele and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-03-29 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A reflective look at some of those responsible for the placement of Jacksonville, Florida on the universal map of rock and roll. This autobiographical account of personal and professional triumph and tragedy takes the reader through the formative years of both Lynyrd Skynyrd and 38 Special, recounting those days when making records was only a dream. Former 38 Special stage manager and co-writer, Larry Steele, gives a first-hand account of growing up on the Westside of Jacksonville, of forming his first band with Allen Collins, and of the journey they each pursued, where scores of novice musicians sought a better way of life. Steele describes his own experiences as a musician, along with the friendships that would endure the rivalry which existed between his own band and those who would eventually become Lynyrd Skynyrd. After years of performing with various bands in the North Florida area, including a brief stint with Skynyrd in 1973, Steele would begin his employment with 38 Special in January, 1980. From here is chronicled the 38 story from its very beginning; the frustrations of living in the shadow of Skynyrd while trying to perfect a sound of their own, and the decision to push forward after the tragic loss of their friend, brother and mentor, Ronnie Van Zant. From the rehearsal hall, to the recording studios, to headlining the most renowned concert venues of North America, Europe and Japan, take a ride on the buses, planes and bullet trains that took them all the way there.

Download or read book As I Recall written by Casey Tygrett and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2019-04-09 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christianity Today's 2020 Book of the Year Award of Merit - Spiritual Formation What if our memories are like shells we gather on a beach? According to pastor and spiritual director Casey Tygrett, "We—and all those who have come before us—pick up the experience and we sense it: we feel its edges, notice its color, we smell the distinctive character (for shells it is the sickly seafood salt smell) of the experience and we try to make sense of what it is. Is it beautiful? How would you describe the color—the tones, the shades, wrapped around the ridges and swirls? Has it been damaged? Does the hard edge scrape our hand, leaving a blemish or a mark?" How we hold and carry these memories—good and bad—is a part of what forms us spiritually. In this way we have a common bond with the people of Scripture who also had a sensory life, gathering shells and trying to make sense of them. In these pages Casey Tygrett explores the power of memory and offers biblical texts and practices to guide us in bringing our memories to God for spiritual transformation.

Download or read book As I Recall written by Ray Dillard and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2010-10-29 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As I Recall is a collection of humorous and heartfelt short stories and poetry sharing moments from a life full of laughter and love. Author Ray Dillard has long wanted to record these memories of his life for family and friends; however, early in the process, he discovered more than the need to create a personal legacy for his family. He found a new voice that told colorful and descriptive stories and provided an inspiring message. He attributes his understanding of the human spirit and its need for nourishment to his experiences as a son, brother, husband, father, and teacher. The collection is divided into two parts: part one, consisting of short stories drawn from Dillards life; and part two, presenting his poetry. In both, he captures the essence of the important and interesting experiences of his life thus far. His imagery and tone are clear in the following excerpt from a longer poem about his father: When We Were Young He left for work each morning, Wearing steel-toed boots and a tin hat. He took long strides that were three times The length of mine. In one hand he carried a lunch pail and a thermos. The other hand was empty, Like his wallet. Bye-Bye Daddy ...

Download or read book As I Recall written by Ysaac Chabo and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2008-02-01 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is simply to share with the readers the events—some very intense—that strongly impacted my life. It is written directly from my memory; therefore, some dates might not be exact, but the events are as clear in my mind as at the time of their occurrence. It’s a journey from oppression to freedom and a profound expression of gratitude to Spain, which made the journey faster and easier by granting our visas in less than four hours and allowed us to stay in that beautiful and hospitable country for almost five months, and to our adoptive motherland, the United States of America, for welcoming us to the land of the free and the home of the brave. The very difficult situations described in this book had a positive aspect, because each one of them made our character stronger and our faith firmer as a gift from God, whose power and mercy we felt every time there was a problem that we could not solve in our own. It is not necessary to add anything else at this time. The book presents a clear narrative of the journey where the reader may also find diversity—a recently used and abused concept—at work. I let the reader discover the character-building struggles and the spiritual growth that was directly proportional to the intensity of the hardships and overt or covert persecution. As Father Mérito González said in Spain during a homily: “How do we know our strengths without tests and trials?” Let’s make faith, hope and love the most important pillars of life and we will find that with God we can cross raging waters walking on a bridge of rotten wood. Enjoy!

Download or read book As I Recall written by George H. Tsegeletos and published by Author House. This book was released on 2003-12-29 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AS I RECALL, is a series of short stories recalling personal experiences of the author when a young Marine serving in Korea. Unlike most memoirs describing the horrors of war Tsegeletos describes the sights, sounds and what is most fascinating, the thoughts that ran through his mind during each incident. An occasional quip added while engaged in life threatening action, brings to the reader lighthearted relief to what at the very least is serious business indeed. At the age of 17, George along with many of his high school friends joined a Marine reserve unit located close to home. 1950 and half way around the globe North Korea invaded South Korea, but to these young Marines it seemed too far away to be of much concern. Looking forward to their graduation, summer vacation and beginning a new career, whether college or work, their world is suddenly turned upside down when they are rushed into a very uncertain military future. From his first step on North Korean soil through each story that follows, including the final narrative describing the experience of survival in the cold frozen environment during the epic Chosin Reservoir Campaign, you will be taking each step with him. Included are illustrations interspersed between stories and copies of actual letters sent home. The book leaves you with a true picture of life in a foxhole as seen through the eyes of a young Marine. Tsegeletos will hold the readers attention and win the hearts of all moms with a young son in the U.S. Marines.

Book Synopsis Affect and Accuracy in Recall by : Eugene Winograd
Download or read book Affect and Accuracy in Recall written by Eugene Winograd and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-11-02 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recollections of unexpected and emotional events (called 'flashbulb' memories) have long been the subject of theoretical speculation. Previous meetings have brought together everyone who has done research on memories of the Challenger explosion, in order to gain a better understanding of the phenomenon of flashbulb memories. How do flashbulb memories compare with other kinds of recollections? Are they unusually accurate, or especially long-lived? Do they reflect the activity of a special mechanism, as has been suggested? Although Affect and Accuracy in Recall focuses on flashbulb memories, it addresses more general issues of affect and accuracy. Do emotion and arousal strengthen memory? If so, under what conditions? By what physiological mechanisms? This 1993 volume is evidence of progress made in memory research since Brown and Kulick's 1977 paper.
