DONATO ZOPPO
PREMIATA FORNERIA MARCONI (1971-2006). 35 ANNI DI ROCK IMMAGINIFICO
RIMANENZA DI MAGAZZINO PARI AL NUOVO. La Premiata Forneria Marconi, meglio nota come PFM, è stata l'unica rock band italiana ad avere successo internazionale: merito di una straordinaria discografia all'insegna del progressive-rock e di un'inimitabile tecnica che porta il gruppo tra i più capaci performer di sempre. Nati come "Quelli", complesso beat attivo in studio con Mina, Battisti e De André, nel 1970 diventano Premiata Forneria Marconi con "Storia di un minuto" e "Per un amico", grandi successi di pubblico e critica. Alla fine degli anni Settanta la PFM è con Fabrizio De André in una storica tournée congiunta. Dopo il fortunato tour volta pagina e inventa il rock italiano di "Suonare Suonare", inaugurando gli anni Ottanta fino alla sosta nell'87. Dieci anni dopo il gruppo si riforma, pubblica "Ulisse" e "Serendipity" e riprende i concerti, la miglior forma di espressione per la grande live-band. Il libro analizza la storia della PFM attraverso i suoi dischi: le origini beat, l'epopea progressive anni Settanta, il rock anni Ottanta e il ritorno, fino al degno coronamento di una lunga carriera con l'opera rock "Dracula". C'è spazio anche per i singoli membri e le loro carriere, più un'esauriente discografia e bibliografia.

Mac Randall traccia la parabola dei Radiohead e li segue partendo dagli esordi, in un liceo di Oxford, fino all'ultimo disco "Hail To The Thief" che chiude il rapporto contrattuale con la multinazionale Emi/Capitol: dall'esplosione commerciale con il singolo "Creep" al successo di critica con "The Bends", dal leggendario concerto di Glastonbury alla piena maturità di "OK Computer", dalle sperimentazioni elettroniche alla trasformazione in guru indiscussi dello show business mondiale.

PAOLO VITES
PATTI SMITH
RIMANENZA DI MAGAZZINO PARI AL NUOVO. Quando Patty Smith arrivò sulle scene musicali, a metà degli anni Settanta, cambiò in modo decisivo il volto della musica rock: dopo di lei fu il diluvio del punk e le donne, per la prima volta dai tempi di Janis Joplin, divennero protagoniste, rompendo quel tabù che ha sempre visto questa musica fortemente maschilista. Ma Patti Smith portò anche a compimento quella missione che, tentata da personaggi come Bob Dylan, era stata abbandonata a metà negli anni Settanta: unire poesia e rock'n'roll, come avevano sognato i poeti della "beat generation". Informazioni bibliografiche Titolo: Patti Smith Collana: Legends.

DISPONIBILITÀ GARANTITA AL 99%; SPEDIZIONE ENTRO 12 ORE DALL'ORDINE. RIMANENZA DI MAGAZZINO PARI AL NUOVO. Le canzoni rock si basano a volte su impressioni e le impressioni sono tutto sommato soggettive, libere interpretazioni di testi sui quali l'ascoltatore proietta le proprie sensazioni. Le canzoni dei R.E.M. sono spesso questo: pura emotività, in cui musica e parole si fondono, al di là del loro significato originario, per creare stati d'animo nell'ascoltatore. Questo libro tenta di spiegare i significati che si nascondono dietro i testi enigmatici di Michael Stipe, districandosi tra flussi di coscienza, nonsense, cut up e citazioni improbabili. Informazioni bibliografiche: Titolo: Le canzoni dei R.E.M.
