2011ill., br. Dalla serie "Patterns" di Gary Chaffe, un manuale dedicato allo sviluppo degli schemi funzionamento dei ritmi sia nel jazz che nel rock. Gli argomenti trattati includono l'indipendenza coordinata in sedicesimi con gli ostinati sul piatto, quella in terzine con l'ostinato swing, la coordinazione jazz melodica e armonica e lo sviluppo del fraseggio lineare, uno dei concetti sviluppati dall'autore che ha avuto un'enorme influenza sulla batteria moderna. Lo scopo primario di questo testo è quello di aiutare lo studente a sviluppare un alto grado d'indipendenza coordinata sia in tempi rock che jazz e un fraseggio originale e creativo.
2016ill. La storia del rock è una cosa meravigliosa. Da questo assunto nasce l'idea di Time after time, un modo originale per raccontare passo passo quello che di notevole, interessante, curioso, memorabile, degno di essere tramandato, è successo nelle cronache del pop-rock dagli albori ad oggi. In una cavalcata divertente, che associa i massimi sistemi agli episodi più periferici, attraversati dai personaggi che hanno popolato le classifiche, gli stadi, i cinema, le trasmissioni radiofoniche e televisive, troviamo migliaia di notizie, nomi, titoli, festival con cui tracciare e ricordare la colonna sonora delle musiche che amiamo. E se lo scorrere del tempo viene punteggiato anche da tragedie e morti, evidenziati con una breve indicazione biografica, una sezione finale riassume, dal 1° gennaio al 31 dicembre, le date di nascita e i compleanni degli artisti più rappresentativi dell'ultimo secolo. Ogni anno, inoltre, viene introdotto da una nota che aiuta a contestualizzare il periodo e gli avvenimenti extramusicali. Il volume, riccamente illustrato con i volti, le copertine, le insegne di realtà culturali che hanno rappresentato l'avventura del pop-rock dagli anni Cinquanta a oggi, getta uno sguardo complice e approfondito sui diversi generi, con un'attenzione sistematica anche al panorama italiano. La selezione degli argomenti, dei protagonisti, delle date tiene naturalmente conto di vari fattori, ma senza mai prescindere da considerazioni oggettive sull'importanza che tra gli appassionati e sui mass-media quei gruppi e quegli artisti si sono ritagliati nel corso del tempo. Dal rock 'n' roll delle origini, passando per il beat, il blues revival, il country, il folk e la canzone d'autore, la psichedelia, il progressive, la stagione hard e metal, arrivando ai fenomeni del punk, della new wave, del reggae, e quindi alla diffusione dei linguaggi più commerciali, senza tralasciare la ricerca e la sperimentazione, per abbracciare naturalmente l'universo rap e hip-hop, del soul e della black music, nelle pagine di Time after time troveremo segnali che riguardano tutti gli attori di questa storia esaltante, dai grandi maestri e guru considerati i padri fondatori, fino ai teen idol dei giorni nostri. Una sorta di tempesta perfetta.

"Those Three" Hitler Mussolini and Tojo is a splendid collection of 44 anti-Axis cartoons by Catalan artist Mario Hubert Armengol 1909-1995 published with a foreword by Catalan historian and founder of the Anglo-Catalan Society Dr Josep Maria Batista I Roca. In this work Armengol displays the bombed out German cities as chimney teeth and window eyes rugged against the sky. Mussolini is depicted as Hitler's puppet always taking orders from the Fuehrer. and always failing. Other cartoons show Pétain hunched in greatcoat and French military trousers with senile wrinkles and bedraggled moustache walking with the squinting squit-faced Laval in his jet black coat and pinstripes. Both clutch their coat flaps together against a cold wind as they stumble past the ruins of France. Behind them is an angry scowling Marianne. Her face is despair hardening into hatred and Laval and Pétain dare not look back at her. Mario Armengol's masterpiece though is "The Fakir wants Comfort." It shows Gandhi looking ambiguously at a bed of nails marked "Made in Japan" which has just been delivered by Japanese general and premier Tojo in uniform. Behind Gandhi is a clean white bed with bright white headboard marked "Made in England". The background is black but streaming down like stalactites of blood. It is of course an echo of the greatest of Britain's war-leaders Winston Churchill's famous description of Gandhi in 1930 as: posing as a fakir. striding half-naked. to parley on equal terms with the representative of the king-emperor.
