Amazon.co.uk: Cult Rock Posters: Roger Crimlis, Alwyn Turner: Books
Sorry to break to to you, but you're not a kid any more. So rip down all those dreadful posters of yours and decorate your room like a boring, sensible adult. The Pottery Barn is that way. I know it's painful, so here's a little memento to ease the pain: a book of Cult Rock Posters from 1972 to 1982, tracing the evolution of music from pop to glam to new-age and everything in between. Featuring over 200 rare posters, all as torn and creased as they would be if they had been hanging on your wall for thirty years. Everyone from David Bowie to Lou Reed to the Sex Pistols to Blondie is featured in here, as well as commentaries by artists, stars and photographers. So if you miss the blue-tack smears on the wall, black painted walls, and the freakish eyes of a hundred angry rockstars watching you as you (try) to go to bed, then this book might be for you.

Some Rockstars passed away before they could kiss and tell. So I for one look forward to Ace Frehley's well worn memories from the golden age of Rock God excess.

Great screen, nice keyboard, fast processor, not plastic, great battery life, can run Windows if you need to do so, GREAT customer service. No Blu-Ray. Lets face it, you do not need it and it is buggy and a dying technology.

The droll drawings of this coloring book will make artists out of even people like me (who can barely manage a stick figure) while broadening the musical horizons of artistic types who tend to eschew rock in favor of classical. AND all the proceeds from its sale go to charity. A magical mystery tour, designed by the Yellow Bird Project, that just keeps on giving.

The iconic postpunk band Sonic Youth is best known for blurring musical genres and transcending the boundaries of rock guitar. Its members--Kim Gordon, Thurston Moore, Lee Ranaldo and Steve Shelley--have also, over the course of 27 years since they first started playing together, more quietly engaged in multidisciplinary solo efforts and collaborations with visual artists, filmmakers, designers and other musicians. What we're doing is always inventing itself. I have no terminology for it," according to Moore. This comprehensive 784-page volume--which includes two 7-inch records with unpublished songs by each member, album covers, band portraits and documentary photos, many of which have never been published before--is a must for fans and anyone seeking to connect the dots between New York's various cultural scenes. It features writings by band members and contributions by a host of other luminaries, including Richard Hell, Mike Kelley, Jutta Koether, Alan Licht, Lydia Lunch and John Miller."

Bridget Fonda is the chick who truly turned me on to grunge through her role as the lovelorn groupie in "Singles" (along with a little help from Matt Dillon, Kyra Sedgwick and Campbell Scott.) So, I am thrilled to see the renegade rock format get its very own tribute tome (penned, no less, by a member of Sonic Youth.) And it is being published just in time for gifting to those in your life with garage band aspirations. Sweetness.

This book is a series of conversations w/Bono, lead singer of U2 and one of the few celebrities who use their fame to improve the world. I love U2 but I read this book more as a case study in leadership, commitment, and contribution, not as a fan. If you want to get a sense for how a highly charismatic leader built a global brand and is changing the world, I recommend you read this. Great for entrepreneurs, activists, and people who want to effectively engage the world. Good for fans too ;-)

It's hilarious that I was cleaning my room and picking up a whole bunch of old movie ticket stubs (I like to keep them) and thinking I've got to figure out a better way to store them. Viola! Perfect timing.
