From the Graveyard of the Arousal Industry
Justin Pearson - 2010
There, he fell in with a subculture of young musicians playing some of the most original and brutal music in the world. Turns out the chaos of Pearson’s bands — The Locust, Swing Kids, and Some Girls — is nothing compared to the madness of his life.An icon of the West Coast noise and punk scene, Pearson managed to arrive at adulthood by outsmarting skinheads and dodging equally threatening violence at home. Once there, the struggle continued, with Pearson getting beat up on Jerry Springer and, on more than one occasion, chased out of town by ferociously angry audiences.From the Graveyard of the Arousal Industry is the outrageously candid story of Pearson’s life. In loving, meticulous detail, Pearson gives readers the dirt behind each rivalry, riff, and lineup change.
Mozart: Requiem of Genius (The True Story of Wolfgang Mozart) (Historical Biographies of Famous People)
Alexander Kennedy - 2016
In this highly readable short biography, Alexander Kennedy brings Mozart and his times vividly to life. Here we see the sweeping grandeur of the courts Mozart visited as a child prodigy, and the grasping desperation of his scheming father.

We watch Mozart clash with family and friends, with archbishops and emperors, and we feel again the tragedy of his mysterious early death. And above all, we hear his eternal music: music that captivated a continent, defined a genre, and changed the world. “I pay no attention whatever to anybody's praise or blame.

Devil: A Bad Boy Motorcycle Club Baby Romance (Black Talons MC) (Outlaw MC Romance Collection Book 2)
Vivian Gray - 2018
I was trying to save my brother. And somehow, I ended up on an auction stage. Jacob bought me to break me. But when we find out I’m carrying his baby… he’ll walk through hell to save me.
LAURIE
I thought I was doing the right thing. Helping my brother get to rehab and start his life over… That’s what a good sister is supposed to do, right? So how did it all go wrong? Before I know it, I’m watching my brother disappear with a fresh fix… While I’m being sold at auction like a used toy. The man who buys me off that stage looks like any other outlaw thug, from his square jaw to his inky tattoos. But there’s something in his eyes that says he’s different than the rest of the bikers around him. It says he’s got big plans for me. Not just my body… But also my heart and soul. Now, I’m trapped in his room, waiting to find out what this demon wants from me. He’ll be here any second. My heart is racing. My blood is churning with fear. And then the devil himself opens the door.
JACOB
She looked terrified when I entered the room. With good reason – I was there to break her. Women are disposable to me. Toys to be used and tossed aside. And the innocent ones are my favorite to ruin. But there’s something different about this one. In all my time as president of the Black Talons MC, I’ve never come across a woman like her. She’s beautiful, delicate. And yet… defiant. Fiery. Proud. So I did something with her I never should have done: I put my baby in her belly. Turns out, that might have been a fatal mistake. Because rule number one of being a biker is to never expose your weaknesses. Especially not in the middle of a war. And when my enemies find out what Laurie means to me, they try to use her to destroy me. But I can promise them this: If they lay even a finger on my woman or my baby… I’ll make them wish they’d never been born. DEVIL is a full-length, standalone, super steamy, bad boy motorcycle club romance novel from bestselling author VIVIAN GRAY. This suspenseful, action-packed MC romance is intended for mature audiences, due to violence, strong language, dark themes and elements, and explicit intimate scenes. The romance between the alpha male bad boy and the fiery woman he can't resist ends with a guaranteed happily ever after (HEA) ending, has absolutely NO CHEATING, and does NOT include a cliffhanger of any kind.

Ronnie
Ronnie Wood - 2007
For more than three decades since then, Ronnie, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Charlie Watts have formed the core of the greatest rock 'n' roll band in history. This book is Ronnie's autobiography, and like the band it can only be talked about in superlatives: it's simply one of the biggest, most outrageous, most extraordinary and most fun rock 'n' roll memoirs ever to be published.From early 1960s Britain, when acts like The Yardbirds, The Kinks, The Who and The Rolling Stones crisscrossed the country's club scene in clapped-out vans, barely making ends meet but having the time of their lives, through to the global mega stadium concerts of the 21st century (in 2006 the Stones played live to more than two million people in Rio), Ronnie takes us on a journey through his life and through rock history. Filled with unforgettable characters and truly eye-popping stories, his autobiography reveals Ronnie the husband, father, grandfather, artist and rock star the way you have never seen any rock star before.
Ronnie
is an up-front and personal look at life as a Rolling Stone, from the inside, and at the Stones as the rest of the world has never seen them. After

Bound by Anguish: Soul Shifterz MC: Book 3
Kayce Kyle - 2017
He was a biker who’d spent his life growing up in a club surrounded by crime and mayhem. She was an aspiring artist from California with a flare for all things fancy and expensive. Never in either of their lifetimes did they expect their paths would cross and they’d fall hard for each other. After spending only a few short weeks together, the world as they knew it would be turned on its axis. Utter surprise with a dose of panic caused her swift reaction—leaving him confused and broken-hearted. The lover in him wanted answers. The cold-hearted biker in him wanted to swiftly move on. With a club torn, one phone call was all it took before he was willing to go nomad and leave his brothers for an uncertain future with a girl he’d only just met. With adrenaline surfing wildly through his veins, he can’t get to her side fast enough—only to be devastated at what he learned once there. The club has dealt its hand to those involved, but is it too little and too late for the future of Ace and Tess? New relationships and expanding families surround them, but will this ultimately help or hurt them and the future that was once within reach? She desperately wants what she thought she never would. He desperately wants her, and the whole truth, but will settle for less if only he can have all of her back as she was before. Her mission now is to hold onto him, and the depth of her secret, out of fear of losing him forever. Having come from two extremely opposite backgrounds, will they ultimately be able to overcome their individual anguish and unify on common ground? Even if they can, will the truth of how the chaos began come out and change his feelings for her forever? This book includes explicit sexual content, violence, explicit language, and possibly sensitive emotional situations. Therefore, I would like to take this time to warn you that if any of the above could ignite fear, offend you, or trigger a painful past memory for you, please send the book back immediately. Nobody should ever have to endure any abuse. Sexual, or otherwise. If you, or anyone you know are in an abusive relationship, or have been abused, it’s not ever too late to reach out and ask for help. This book is rated for mature audiences eighteen and above.

Soulless Bastards MC Daytona Chapter Box Set
Erin Trejo - 2020
My role as President didn't give me the satisfaction I was seeking anymore. I wanted to move on but I didn't know how. Until she was dumped on my job. She was feisty and a challenge. One I liked to accept. Yet her secrets were hers. Until they were mine. Now I'm struggling to find the balance I need the most in my life. TRITON: I took care of my sister the best I could after our parents died. I wasn’t the best big brother. I had my club to think about and dealing with a teenager wasn’t high on my list of things to do. Neither was that little surfer girl. She was mouthy and full of passion, something I wanted. But with all good things, it had to come to an end. She had bigger plans for her life and I wasn’t one to keep her tied down. Or was I? RANSOM: I was given this name for a reason. This wasn’t my first go-round with a stuck up little brat. This time was different. Her dad made it personal. I was tired of living in a past that haunted me every day and she was the reason I decided to take control of that. I wasn’t expecting her to change herself. I wasn’t expecting her to change me. NEO: I’m not settled. Something is off that I can’t pinpoint. My mom’s health is declining and I’m the worst son imaginable. Life has kicked me more times than I care to admit. Then I met her. She was a smart mouth that sparked my interest. I made it my mission to know more about her. Until she left me.

Nearly forty years at the top of the showbiz tree, Lulu has never been afraid to experiment with new trends, and her book reflects the daring that took a girl from a Glasgow tenement to international stardom - as 'To Sir With Love' says, 'from crayons to perfume'.I DON’T WANT TO FIGHT (the title of a song Lulu wrote and Tina Turner recorded) is the devastatingly candid autobiography of a singer who has never shirked from facing anything.

Original Rude Boy: From Borstal to The Specials
Neville Staple - 2009
In 1979, Thatcher's Britain was a country crippled by strikes, joblessness, and economic gloom, divided by race and class—and skanking to a new beat: 2 Tone. The unruly offspring of white boy punk and rude boy ska, the Specials burst on to the scene. On stage they were electric, and at the heart of this energy was the vocal chemistry of the ethereal Terry Hall and Jamaican rude boy Neville Staple. In 1961, five-year-old Neville was sent to England to live with his father, a man for whom discipline bordered on child abuse. As he recounts here, growing up black in the Midlands of the 1960s and 1970s wasn't easy, and his youth was marked by scuffles with skins, compulsive womanizing, and a life of crime that led from shoplifting to burglary and eventually prison. But throughout there was music, and Nev reveals how he became part of the most important band of the 1980s. He remembers sound system battles; the legendary 2 Tone tour with the Selecter, Madness, and Dexy's, and their clashes with white nationalist thugs. He recalls the band's increasing tensions and eventual split; his subsequent foray into bubblegum pop with Fun Boy Three; and a newfound fame in America as godfather to Third Wave ska bands. Finally he reflects on the Specials' reunion and how even now, 30 years later, they can't help tearing themselves apart.
Waiting to Derail: Ryan Adams and Whiskeytown, Alt-Country's Brilliant Wreck
Thomas O'Keefe - 2018
Lumped into the burgeoning alt-country movement, the band soon landed a major label deal and recorded an instant classic: Strangers Almanac. That's when tour manager Thomas O'Keefe met the young musician.For the next three years, Thomas was at Ryan's side: on the tour bus, in the hotels, backstage at the venues. Whiskeytown built a reputation for being, as the Detroit Free Press put it, "half band, half soap opera," and Thomas discovered that young Ryan was equal parts songwriting prodigy and drunken buffoon. Ninety percent of the time, Thomas could talk Ryan into doing the right thing. Five percent of the time, he could cover up whatever idiotic thing Ryan had done. But the final five percent? Whiskeytown was screwed.Twenty-plus years later, accounts of Ryan's legendary antics are still passed around in music circles. But only three people on the planet witnessed every Whiskeytown show from the release of Strangers Almanac to the band's eventual breakup: Ryan, fiddle player Caitlin Cary, and Thomas O'Keefe.
