Book excerpt: Written in his own unmistakable voice, this is a frank and fascinating account of a geezer's life in the music business. Jah Wobble begins by offering the most authentic insider's account of the beginning of punk rock yet written, but there's much more to him than that. His is an eventful life, as the celebrated ups - PiL's The Metal Box, 90s hit Visions Of You with Sinead O'Connor - are balanced by major downs - chronic alcoholism and marital breakdown. It begins with an East End childhood in a London barely recovered from the War and ends with Wobble finally turning his back on London that no longer feels like home. Through the book Wobble tell it like he sees it: his opinions of the great and good from Malcolm Mclaren to Peter Gabriel to Brian Eno to Iain Sinclair are refreshingly disrespectful. Oh and if you ever wondered how got his name, the answer is here: his teenage pal Sid Vicious gave it to him when he drunkenly slurred Wobble's real name, John Wardle.

Book excerpt: Introduction As we human beings become, in a manner of speaking, our "composite selves," with values and attitudes reasonably well established, many of us tend to examine the trajectory of our lives, our accomplishments, successes and failures, where we've been and where we're headed. In what I like to call my "GeezerHood," happily still among the living and having reached a certain age, I started writing down certain reflections, on a monthly basis, a "blog," to use the parlance of today's computer and internet age. Following the accepted definition, "Memoirs of a Geezer" is indeed informal and conversational, a series of thoughts and recollections, complete with characters, creatures and, at times, a few questions. Attempting to mirror shared experiences, in a way to empathize with a wide audience of possible adherents, kindred spirits and potential readers, the objective of the blog began and remains, for the most part, a means of offering a light-hearted and humorous look at life's adventures -- small and large -- at our own absurdities and imperfections, in an effort to suggest, "Hey, that's me," or, "I had that same reaction," or, "Holy cow, I've been there too..." Presented herein, "Memoirs of a Geezer," a book that consists (at the moment) of 39 postings or episodes, with, I hope, many more to follow... no promises, of course. Life has a way of scything through its dense thickets with little or no regard for human direction or intervention! Experiences and events are presented truthfully (mainly), with an aim toward universality, meaning any of it could happen, or has happened, to any one of us who inhabit the mortal sphere.

Book excerpt: Joe, an elderly gentleman in his eighties, sat listening to a speaker on TV. The speaker asked his audience, "Where has your journey in life taken you? What were your challenges? How did you overcome these challenges? What are your happy memories? Have you written down your journey for your posterity to enjoy? Or, will you become just a name in your family's history, unknown by the third generation?" Joe had never thought about such questions. It caused him to realize that everyone born must take life's journey, like in the old song, "Life is like a mountain railway." Some will bear the scars of that journey. Some will meet the trials and experiences in life and overcome them. Others will look back at the "good old days" with nostalgia. He could see the wisdom of writing down his journey through life, telling both pleasant and not so pleasant things, and how each situation was handled; that perhaps it might help his descendants as they face life's challenges. Going to his computer he began to write.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the memoirs of an ordinary person, but by one who witnessed the hardships of a life of poverty and other misdemeanours of living in a household that contained eight children. This is a story of a boy who had religion rammed down his throat, only to eventually despise God and Christianity the more it was pushed towards him. P.S. Do excuse the grammar; I have written this book myself and wished for it to be told by me, and not have anything added on by other sources.

Download or read book The Lives of Brian written by Brian Johnson and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2022-10-25 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brian Johnson’s memoir from growing up in a small town to starting his own band to ultimately replacing Bon Scott, the lead singer of one of the world biggest rock acts, AC/DC. They would record their first album together, the iconic Back in Black, which would become the biggest selling rock album of all time. Brian Johnson was born to a steelworker and WWII veteran father and an Italian mother, growing up in New Castle Upon Tyne, England, a working-class town. He was musically inclined and sang with the church choir. By the early ’70s he performed with the glam rock band Geordie, and they had a couple hits, but it was tough going. So tough that by 1976, they disbanded and Brian turned to a blue-collar life. Then 1980 changed everything. Bon Scott, the lead singer and lyricist of the Australian rock band AC/DC died at 33. The band auditioned singers, among them Johnson, whom Scott himself had seen perform and raved about. Within days, Johnson was in a studio with the band, working with founding members Angus and Malcolm Young, Cliff Williams, and Phil Rudd, along with producer Mutt Lange. When the album, Back in Black, was released in July—a mere three months after Johnson had joined the band—it exploded, going on to sell 50 million copies worldwide, and triggering a years-long worldwide tour. It has been declared “the biggest selling hard rock album ever made” and “the best-selling heavy-metal album in history.” The band toured the world for a full year to support the album, changing the face of rock music—and Brian Johnson’s life—forever.

This book was released on 2010-10-12 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Condoleezza Rice, former secretary of state and New York Times bestselling author of Democracy: Stories from the Long Road to Freedom, comes a captivating memoir of her remarkable childhood. Condoleezza Rice’s life began in Birmingham, Alabama in the 1950s, a place and time where black people lived in a segregated parallel universe away from their white neighbors. She grew up during the violent and shocking 1960s, when bloodshed became a part of daily life in the South. Rice’s portrait of her parents, John and Angelena, highlights their ambitions and frustrations and shows how much they sacrificed to give their beloved only child the best chance for success. Rice also discusses the challenges of being a precocious child who was passionate about music, ice skating, history, and current affairs. Her memoir reveals with vivid clarity how her early experiences sowed the seeds of her political beliefs and helped her become a vibrant, successful woman. Condoleezza Rice: A Memoir of My Extraordinary, Ordinary Parents and Me is a fascinating and inspirational story for young people, adapted from Condoleeza Rice’s adult sensation Extraordinary, Ordinary People: A Memoir of Family. Includes a 16-page photo insert. Praise for Extraordinary, Ordinary People: A Memoir of Family: “An origins story . . . memoir is teeming with fascinating detail.” —The New York Times “A thrilling, inspiring life of achievement.” —Publishers Weekly “Surprisingly engrossing . . .” —Daily Beast “Vivid and heartfelt writing . . . Highly recommended.”—Library Journal
