Book excerpt: Frankie and Phil Fasino and Carlo Cardoni grew up together in a poor Italian neighborhood in Newark, New Jersey, during the Depression and World War II. Times were bad, and for them stealing was a way of life. The brothers, Frankie and Phil, end up working for the Mafia, while their childhood friend Carlo joins the Army Air Force. While Carlo is in the military, the brothers become wise guys and unscrupulous businessmen. After four years of service, Carlo pursues life as a police officer to get away from the criminal element of his old buddies, or so he thought. However, using the problems within his everyday life as an excuse, Carlo accepts favors from his past friends and their capo regime. Favors that he knows must someday be repaid. His old buddies Frankie and Phil continually try to talk him into leaving the New Jersey police force and joining them, but he is committed to his wife and children and being a police officer. Once again, he tries to get away from their influence. He moves to California and joins the Los Angeles police force. But a few years later his friends move their criminal activities to San Diego. Carlo learns they are there and again begins accepting favors from them. The time comes for Carlo to honor his commitment. His friend Frankie informs him of how the Family expects him to repay their favors. Carlo knows he must do as asked and agrees to participate in the proposed crime. But things go awry, and he’s caught by the police and ends up in jail. The judge is paid off by the capo regime, and Carlo goes free. Now he is faced with a major decision and decides to join the Family.

Download or read book Wendy Carlos written by Mark Marrington and published by Sonicbond Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2024-09-04 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wendy Carlos is one of the most influential electronic musicians of the 20th century, whose groundbreaking LP, Switched-On Bach, was pivotal in elevating the Moog synthesizer to iconic status. Her highly evocative score for Stanley Kubrick's film A Clockwork Orange redefined the sound of electronic music for a generation of popular musicians in the US and Europe. Best known for her adventurous sonic re-imaginings of the music of classical composers, Carlos was also an accomplished composer in her own right, whose original work on albums such as Sonic Seasonings and Beauty In The Beast deserves equal recognition for their progressive compositional innovations and sound design techniques. With the aim of addressing this imbalance, this book offers a detailed track-by-track survey of all of her album releases from Switched-On Bach to Tales of Heaven And Hell, placing each recording in context in relation to musical influences, technology and thematic concepts, as well as providing analytical pointers to help navigate her classically influenced musical aesthetic. To provide a fully rounded picture the last section of the book considers a number of Carlos's miscellaneous one-off projects and evaluates the remastered editions of her earlier LPs released on the East Side Digital label during the early 2000s. Mark Marrington is a musician, teacher and writer based in the North of England, UK. He has a wide range of musical interests including the classical guitar (about which he has written an award-winning book), quirky electronic music (some of which has appeared on BBC radio and the Dr Demento Show) and heavy metal, on which he has written several articles for academic books and journals. He is currently an Associate Professor in Music Production at York St. John University in the UK, where he gives classes on the history of record production and the techniques of electronic music composition.
Download or read book Face to Face written by Ellery Queen and published by Jabberwocky Literary Agency, Inc.. This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a popular singer goes from retired to dead the day before New Year's Eve, Ellery Queen is certain it’s murder. Luckily, just before she died, the victim managed to scribble out a single mysterious word: F A C E. Unfortunately, no one knows what it means. With the help of a new acquaintance, Inspector Harry Burke from Scotland, Queen uncovers even more baffling clues written in invisible ink. Enter the beautiful, discarded conquests of the dead singer's playboy husband, who prove a dangerous distraction for both Queen and Burke. Will erotic temptation derail the investigation? If it does, hearts will be broken, and what's worse -- someone will get away with murder. From his first appearance in print in 1929, Ellery Queen became one of America’s most famous and beloved fictional detectives. Over the course of nearly half a century, Frederic Dannay and Manfred B. Lee, the duo writing team known as Ellery Queen, won the prestigious Edgar Award multiple times, and their contributions to the mystery genre were recognized with a Grand Master Award, the highest honor bestowed by the Mystery Writers of America. Their fair-play mysteries won over fans due to their intricate puzzles that challenged the reader to solve the mystery alongside the brilliant detective. Queen’s stories were among the first to dominate the earliest days of radio, film, and television. Ellery Queen’s Mystery Magazine, which the writers founded and edited, became the world’s most influential and acclaimed crime fiction magazine.
Book Synopsis Spinning Mambo into Salsa by : Juliet McMains
Download or read book Spinning Mambo into Salsa written by Juliet McMains and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015-05-01 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arguably the world's most popular partnered social dance form, salsa's significance extends well beyond the Latino communities which gave birth to it. The growing international and cross-cultural appeal of this Latin dance form, which celebrates its mixed origins in the Caribbean and in Spanish Harlem, offers a rich site for examining issues of cultural hybridity and commodification in the context of global migration. Salsa consists of countless dance dialects enjoyed by varied communities in different locales. In short, there is not one dance called salsa, but many. Spinning Mambo into Salsa, a history of salsa dance, focuses on its evolution in three major hubs for international commercial export-New York, Los Angeles, and Miami. The book examines how commercialized salsa dance in the 1990s departed from earlier practices of Latin dance, especially 1950s mambo. Topics covered include generational differences between Palladium Era mambo and modern salsa; mid-century antecedents to modern salsa in Cuba and Puerto Rico; tension between salsa as commercial vs. cultural practice; regional differences in New York, Los Angeles, and Miami; the role of the Web in salsa commerce; and adaptations of social Latin dance for stage performance. Throughout the book, salsa dance history is linked to histories of salsa music, exposing how increased separation of the dance from its musical inspiration has precipitated major shifts in Latin dance practice. As a whole, the book dispels the belief that one version is more authentic than another by showing how competing styles came into existence and contention. Based on over 100 oral history interviews, archival research, ethnographic participant observation, and analysis of Web content and commerce, the book is rich with quotes from practitioners and detailed movement description.

Book excerpt: There is a fable that suggests the world will end on December 21, 2012, the last day of the Mayan calendar. ANCIENT ANGER tells the tale of a 105 year old Mayan priest, a drug dealer hiding from his crimes and two driven anthropologists searching for the truth to this very ominous prediction. It begins when Dr. Albert Poliska uncovers a pristine Mayan wall carved with unreadable hieroglyphics in 1976. This sets in motion a series of events that span 25 years of archeological turmoil, offering answers to questions about who the Mayans were, where they went and the possibility of their return. Then Dr. Richard Halden joins Poliska in a quest to find Padre Mio, the ancient priest whose international cult of worshipers still follow the ancient ways, from self mutilation to human sacrifice. Each is driven by a need to understand the truths of the ancient prophesy and strives to influence the possible fate of mankind. Set in Los Angeles, the Yucatan peninsula, New York, Louisiana and Sedona Arizona, ANCIENT ANGER throws the reader into a can't-put-it-down adventure that ends with a climax of spiritual and emotional calamity.
