Book excerpt: "Bringing together fiction from some of the city's most celebrated writers, The Book of Liverpool traces the unique contours that decades of social and economic change can impress on a city. Set against key historical moments from the Second World War to the Capital of Culture year, these stories question what 'belonging' and 'home' mean in the Liverpudlian context, from the regenerated city centre to satellite suburbs, from the sparring cathedrals to the no-go concrete housing estates. Liverpool emerges in these short stories as a city in constant flux: haunted by ghosts, buoyed up by myths, and shifting with an ebb and flow like Mercury itself."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book Ring of Fire written by Simon Hughes and published by Random House. This book was released on 2016-08-25 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the success of Simon Hughes’ Red Machine and Men in White Suits, books which depicted Liverpool FC’s domination during the 1980s and its subsequent fall in the 1990s, Ring of Fire focuses on the 2000s and the primary characters who propelled Liverpool to the forefront of European football once again. With a foreword by Steven Gerrard, this is the third edition in a bestselling series based on revealing interviews with former players, coaches and managers. For Liverpool FC, entry into the 21st century began with modernisation and trophies under manager Gérard Houllier and development was then underpinned by improbable Champions League glory under Rafael Benítez. Yet that is only half of the story. The decade ended with the club being on the verge of administration after the shambolic reign of American owners, Tom Hicks and George Gillett. In Ring of Fire, Hughes’ interviewees – including Jamie Carragher, Xabi Alonso and Michael Owen – take you through Melwood’s training ground gates and into the inner sanctum, the Liverpool dressing room. Each person delivers fascinating insights into the minds of the players, coaches and boardroom members as they talk frankly about exhilarating highs and excruciating lows, from winning cups in Cardiff and Istanbul to the political infighting that undermined a succession of managerial reigns. Ring of Fire tells the real stories: those never told before by the key players who lived through it all.

Book Synopsis Men in White Suits by : Simon Hughes
Download or read book Men in White Suits written by Simon Hughes and published by Random House. This book was released on 2016-03-10 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Men in White Suits, Simon Hughes meets some of the most colourful characters to have played for Liverpool Football Club during the 1990s. The resulting interviews, set against the historical backdrop of both the club and the city, deliver a rich portrait of life at Anfield during a decade when on-field frustrations were symptomatic of off-the-field mismanagement and ill-discipline. After the shock resignation of Dalglish and Graeme Souness's ill-fated reign, the Reds - under the stewardship of Roy Evans - displayed a breathtaking style led by a supremely talented young group of British players whose names featured as regularly on the front pages of the tabloids as they did on the back. The Daily Mail was the first newspaper to tag Evans's team as the Spice Boys. Yet despite their flaws, this was a rare group of individuals: mavericks, playboys, goal-scorers and luckless defenders. Wearing off-white Armani suits, their confident personalities were exemplified in their pre-match walk around Wembley before the 1996 FA Cup final (a 1-0 defeat to Manchester United). In stark contrast to the media-coached, on-message interviews given by today's top stars, the blunt, ribald and sometimes cutting recollections of the footballers featured in Men in White Suits provide a rare insight into this fascinating era in Liverpool's long and illustrious history.

Book Synopsis The Country of Liverpool by : David Bedford
Download or read book The Country of Liverpool written by David Bedford and published by . This book was released on 2020-12 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1960s, Liverpool had the biggest country and western scene in Europe. Country music was part of the fabric of Liverpool; as ingrained as the Irish influence and a bowl of Scouse. Country music influenced every group. Follow the story of one of the top groups: Phil Brady and the Ranchers. When John Lennon started his group, The Quarrymen, their musical influences were skiffle (which has its roots in country music), country and western and rock 'n' roll (which has country roots too). Their musical heroes had their roots in country music and shaped The Beatles sound. ● Why were Liverpool lads obsessed with cowboys? ● Which Beatles album did John call their "Country and Western Album"? ● How many country-influenced songs did they record, both during and after The Beatles? The roots of the beat music scene of the 1960s began with Lonnie Donegan's "Rock Island Line", which was issued in 1956, beginning the skiffle craze. However, examining the skiffle music scene shows that the roots of skiffle were in country; the roots of John Lennon's Quarrymen were in country and western, which was reflected in the songs of The Beatles. Liverpool groups were playing a mixture of country, rock 'n' roll, rhythm and blues, rockabilly and whatever else it discovered. Groups had to decide which route to take. However country music wasn't completely new to Liverpool because of skiffle. Hank Walters formed his first group around 1947, while still at school. There was a country scene in Liverpool in the 1940s, when Liverpool sailors brought records back from America. They brought jazz, country, R & B and everything else that was for sale in the record stores of New York and Boston. When radio brought those American hits to the ears of British people, another music revolution was taking place. Liverpool, the last Western frontier of England, would find it had more in common with Nashville than London. So in 1962, Phil Brady decided to act on the influence of country music in his life and start his first band, going on to become the #1 country artist in Britain, receiving an award from Roy Orbison at the first British Country Music Awards. Phil, from the Dingle, met and toured with some of the biggest names in country music, like Slim Whitman, Willie Nelson, Buck Owens, Hank Snow and, when he visited Nashville in 1968, met up with Chet Atkins and George Hamilton IV, and spent the day at Willie Nelson's ranch. He recorded several albums and singles, including the very first 45rpm single for the new Cavern Sound Ltd. Phil had a fan club, run by Frank Nash, who saved many of his photos, flyers and newspaper cuttings, which are reproduced here for an insight into the musical career of one of Britain's greatest ever country music stars. Yes, some of the photos are blurred, crooked and low quality, but that makes them even more authentic and special.
Download or read book Liverpool Fantasy written by Larry Kirwan and published by Da Capo Press. This book was released on 2003-05-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's 1987, and the Beatles are gathering in Liverpool for a reunion. It has been twenty-five years since John Lennon walked out of the Parlophone studios, taking George and Ringo with him. Paul, American-speaking and -acting, has become the world-famous Las Vegas entertainer Paul Montana, and he's visiting Liverpool for the first time since 1962, hoping to reunite with his boyhood chums, the once "hottest little quartet—in Liverpool." Father George, now a Jesuit priest, is recovering from a nervous breakdown; John is embittered, alcoholic, unemployed, and on the dole. His wife has left him, and young Julian has joined the fascist National Front. Ringo lives on the earnings of his entrepreneurial hairdressing wife while he and John sit in weekends with old rivals, Gerry and the Pacemakers. It is Lennon's curse that he can imagine what might have been. Liverpool Fantasy is a blackly comic meditation on the enduring hazards of friendship, the alchemy of collaboration, and what a world without the Beatles—that is, without idealism—looks like.
