Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Donnie Iris and the Cruisers are the best-kept secret from the golden age of FM radio. The band of brothers have been gigging continuously since 1979, when they began recording Back on the Streets, the album featuring the Top 40 hit ''Ah! Leah!" This encyclopedic, painstakingly researched oral history captures surprising untold details from the Cruisers' rise, fall, and rebirth as an iconic Steel City institution. Before and after the Cruisers' seven Billboard Hot 100 singles, the players had distinguished careers in the musical major leagues. Iris wrote the chart-topping single "The Rapper" with the Jaggerz in 1969. The Cruisers' 1980s string of major-label albums represent just one part of their long and varied careers on and off the stage. For the first time, Donnie, bandmates, friends, and fans recount 50 years of life in the show-business middle class. From the 1960s to the 21st century, the epic saga features episodes about collaborations with the Jaggerz, Gamble and Huff, Wild Cherry, Breathless, Kiss, Bon Jovi, The Pulse, Carlos Santana, Cellarful of Noise, Sonny Geraci, Wolfman Jack, LaFlavour, Fair Warning, a young Trent Reznor, B.E. Taylor, the James Gang, and more. This unprecedented look at the life and times of Donnie Iris features a beat-by-beat review of the Cruisers' songs, albums, and tours. Other colorful chapters include an inside account of WDVE's influential Dawnie Iris comedy skits and the longest retrospective of the Jaggerz, once billed as "Pittsburgh's no. 1 band for 10 years."

Book excerpt: In 1995, Cleveland rocked. With Montell Jordan's "This Is How We Do It," blaring in the locker room, the Indians racked up 100 wins in a strike-shortened season and reached the World Series for the first time in 41 years. Fans were on a first-name basis with the stars that lit up the city: Omar, Manny, The Thomeinator, A.B. Cleveland Rocked is the complete story of the team that brought sellout crowds and walk-off wins to the corner of Carnegie and Ontario. Author Zack Meisel traces the roots of the pennant winner, from trading All-Star Joe Carter for Sandy Alomar and Carlos Baerga in 1989 to the campaign to build a new stadium. Meisel introduces readers to a cast of characters that larger-than-life personalities, including Belle, Thome, Kenny Lofton, Eddie Murray, and manager Mike Hargrove, who managed to keep the clubhouse at peace. Thrilling come-from-behind wins jump off the page as the Indians race toward clinching the division. Then Meisel details the Indians' October to Remember, from thrilling playoff triumphs over Boston and Seattle to the first World Series games in Cleveland since the days of Bob Feller. Cleveland Rocked offers the story of a team that brought baseball back in Northeast Ohio.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely rock biography answers burning questions, shatters popular myths, and uncovers new truths about Slayer, the iconic group that became the embodiment of heavy metal. The full-length, exhaustively researched account of the thrash kings' career recaps and reevaluates the years guitar hero Jeff Hanneman and drum legend Dave Lombardo were in the group. Over the course of 59 chapters, 400 footnotes and three appendices, it profiles the members and presents dramatic scenes from 32 years in the Abyss: A fresh look at the group's early days. Reign in Blood tours. A European invasion. The Palladium riot. The seat cushion chaos concert. Newly unearthed details from Lombardo's turbulent history with the band. Historical artwork and photos never seen in public before. The entire diabolical discography. Hanneman's hard times. The Big Four's big year. Lombardo's final exit. The top 11 Hanneman tributes. The mosh memorial service. Untold stories. Updates. And relevant digressions, including a contrasting look at other contemporaries and cutting-edge extreme bands. Over decades, Slayer experience triumph and loss, but never defeat, whether it's at the hands of rivals, peers, America's most infamous church, or the United States government itself. In addition to extensive archival material, this book features original content from the band, key affiliates, and firsthand witnesses, including Metal Blade CEO Brian Slagel, former tour manager Doug Goodman, engineer Bill Metoyer, former Metal Blade exec William "DJ Will" Howell, and cover artist Albert Cuellar (who went on to work with Tim Burton, Sublime, and Sir Mix-A-Lot). It also includes Jeff Hanneman's original diagram for the Live Undead picture disc (spoiler: it's a stick-figure sketch). Slayer fans will never see - or hear - the thrash metal champions the same way. 33 photos and 11 illustrations include lost artwork by Hell Awaits artist Albert Cuellar and stunning exclusive pictures by Harald Oimoen (of Murder in the Front Row renown).
