Kid Congo Powers has been described as a “legendary guitarist and paragon of cool” with “the greatest resume ever of anyone in rock music." That unique imprint on rock history stems from being a member of not one but three beloved, groundbreaking, and influential groups—Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, the Cramps, and last but not least, The Gun Club, the wildly inventive punk-blues band he co-founded. Some New Kind of Kick begins as an intimate coming-of-age tale.

Story
That’s the real life story of country music star Jimmy Wayne. It’s a miracle that Jimmy survived being hungry and homeless, bouncing in and out of the foster care system, and sleeping in the streets. But he didn’t just overcome great adversity in his life; he now uses his country music platform to help children everywhere, especially teenagers in foster care who are about to age out of the system. Walk to Beautiful is the powerfully emotive account of Jimmy’s horrendous childhood and the love shown him by Russell and Bea Costner, the elderly couple who gave him a stable home and provided the chance to complete his education. Jimmy says of Bea, “She changed every cell in my body.”

La sacerdotessa del rock ripercorre i sentieri che dall'infanzia a Chicago la portano a New York dove incontra Robert Mapplethorpe, fotografo estremo che con lei intreccia un cammino di arte, di devozione e di iniziazione. Insieme scoprono che rock, politica e sesso sono gli ingredienti essenziali della rivoluzione a venire. Il vero collante tra Patti e Robert è l'amicizia. Un'amicizia rara, pura, preziosa. Un patto esplicito di reciproco sostegno, fondato sulla condivisione di sogni, di visioni, di idee. Di arte.

A group of kids in the '90s had a dream to make their voices heard - and this book documents their seminal impact on today's pop culture. DJ Target grew up in Bow under the shadow of Canary Wharf, with money looming close on the skyline. The 'Godfather of Grime' Wiley and Dizzee Rascal first met each other in his bedroom. They were all just grime kids on the block back then and didn't realise they were to become pioneers of an international music revolution. A movement that permeates deep into British culture and beyond.
