Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Founded in a working-class neighborhood in southeast Houston in 1941, Gold Star/SugarHill Recording Studios is a major independent studio that has produced a multitude of influential hit records in an astonishingly diverse range of genres. Its roster of recorded musicians includes Lightnin’ Hopkins, George Jones, Willie Nelson, Bobby “Blue” Bland, Junior Parker, Clifton Chenier, Sir Douglas Quintet, 13th Floor Elevators, Freddy Fender, Kinky Friedman, Ray Benson, Guy Clark, Lucinda Williams, Beyoncé and Destiny’s Child, and many, many more. In House of Hits, Andy Bradley and Roger Wood chronicle the fascinating history of Gold Star/SugarHill, telling a story that effectively covers the postwar popular music industry. They describe how Houston’s lack of zoning ordinances allowed founder Bill Quinn’s house studio to grow into a large studio complex, just as SugarHill’s willingness to transcend musical boundaries transformed it into of one of the most storied recording enterprises in America. The authors offer behind-the-scenes accounts of numerous hit recordings, spiced with anecdotes from studio insiders and musicians who recorded at SugarHill. Bradley and Wood also place significant emphasis on the role of technology in shaping the music and the evolution of the music business. They include in-depth biographies of regional stars and analysis of the various styles of music they represent, as well as a list of all of Gold Star/SugarHill’s recordings that made the Billboard charts and extensive selected historical discographies of the studio’s recordings.

Introduction My poems are inspired by lifes experience, the good times and the not so good times. Recapping significant bits of life and events that have absolutely no significance at all. Sometimes one of my poems will introduce a life changing truth next will lead you down the garden path to some humorous event thats really out for a laugh. I suppose its not really fair to play with the dynamics of peoples emotions but lifes not always fair. Anyway if your reading my book and it has touched you enough to move your mind away from reality for a short time it has achieved the desired result. And also paid a small amount to help feed my family. This will also give me the opportunity to write another verse that just may be the poem that touches the hearts of the people that needs a slight encouragement at that particular momentso dont get up off the lounge or out of that comfy chair.

Book excerpt: Miss Julia—that Southern spitfire of a certain age who is never less than charming, even when she’s at her most opinionated—has been praised by Fannie Flagg as “one of the most delightful characters to come along in years.” Don't miss Ann Ross's newest, Miss Julia Raises the Roof, coming April 2018 from Viking. In Miss Julia Hits the Road, she is becoming increasingly concerned about her gentleman friend, Sam, who has suddenly started wearing cowboy boots, sending her flowers, and writing bad poetry. And when he shows up on a Harley-Davidson Road King and asks her to hop on, she’s convinced he’s lost his mind. Meanwhile, her invaluable housekeeper, Lillian, has been evicted from her home by her greedy landlord. Deciding that Lillian’s need is greater than her own fear (not to mention loss of dignity), Miss Julia takes Sam up on his offer and sets off on a motorcycle Poker Run to raise some fast cash. She’s ready to risk life and limb in Sam’s sidecar to save Lillian’s home from the bulldozer, but will Miss Julia’s scheme work?

Download or read book Hookah Hits! written by Dinggi and published by Author's Ink Publications. This book was released on 2018 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The depth of my feelings for him was unimaginably stressful. When you realise the feeling — name it love — when it gets out of control, then the victim and the perpetrator get united. The want and the need to be loved then becomes a curse. And this curse can only be reversed by the spell of lying the truth.” – Lana Maxwell Lana Maxwell (the protagonist) had to make a decision; along with her mother’s Maxwell Enterprise, she had to inherit her life as well. Lana’s life is paused between her past and present — an ambitionless teenage, adventurous friends, first love, exploring the unknown, and shouldering real-life responsibilities with an accidental twist by Fate. This is a fiction based on real-life events. “If you think you are in for a light-read, you are mistaken. ‘Hookah Hits!’ is a story that will resonate with the emotions of every millennial. A beautiful piece of modern literature filled with undertones of realism and humour—this is a story of exploring one’s own dynamics of unleashing layers and layers of different chapters of life. With intriguing twists and turns in the plot, I would call this a classic book depicting the metamorphosis of human relationships.” – Priyanka Chakrabarti, Founder of thelifestylepotpourri.com & Deputy Editor at Maxim magazine. “Hookah Hits! takes you along with the protagonist on a discovery trip through a family’s saga. One can easily connect to the universality of the story and will be surprised how it unfolds. This novel is intriguing in its emotional depth and understanding.” – Alexander Funk, Producer at Oberon Film (A German Film Production)

Book excerpt: At the end of the Second World War in 1945, the United Nations (UN) was formed to prevent another World War like the one that had just ended. The following decades brought renewed and fresh life to many, and Canada or America were again “lands of opportunity.” Since then, many changes have taken place in technology, the economy, and morality. Extreme ideologies and terrorism are becoming more commonplace. Wars and rumours of wars have Canada and America involved in many conflicts around the world; is the UN failing as a peacekeeper? Have we expected too much from an organization that now cannot even control itself. How long before we lose it all to the “New World Order?”
