Kurzbeschreibung
Sing My Way Home explores the ascendance of American roots rock and its signature artists, past and present. The book traces the movement's antecedents and profiles the visionary singer-songwriters and musicians who, over the past three decades, have made it an extraordinary, thriving genre. Every chapter includes a playlist to guide readers in downloading and building their own "mix tapes." This is a book that will transform novice fans into experts and enrich their understanding of great singer-songwriters and performers.
Synopsis
A fetching account of the singer-songwriter revolution covers a wide range of artists, from Gram Parsons and Kris Kristofferson to Steve Earle and Lucinda Williams, discussing the influence of the 1960s as well as more recent returns to American "roots" music.

No Objectivity
17. Juli 2005
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
this book is called voices of the new american roots rock you
would never guess thats the title by reading the book. the authors give chapters to their favorite artists while ignoring
the large majority of artists that fit in this category-a chapter on
delaney and bonnie and of course,their personal hero,gram parsons.The authors portray parsons as this larger than life artist who founded the whole americana genre.But like,Chris Hillman,a bandmate of Parsons has said on many occassions.gram parson wrote a couple great songs,some good ones
but building him up to this great songwriter and performer is
ridiculous. And Hillman continues by saying that Gene Clark of the byrds was a much better songwriter and has not received anywhere
near tha accolates that parsons has.
The authors then list a top 100 of americanan root based albuns-of course
parsons and his band the flying burrito brothers dominate the top 20 while great amercana artists like johnny cash,nancy griffith,jim white,uncle tupelo,gene clark,the buffalo springfield,emmy lou harris,and many others have either one or
no albums on their top 100 list.
The authors bias clearly comes into play when someone like rodney crowell has
two albums in the top 30,kris Kristofferson,delaney and bonnie and lucinda williams all get the top album and star treatment.
A very subjective book with no objectivity whatever-pass on this one

Keeps the magic while demystifying the mystery
3. Dezember 2004
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This book tells a story that needs telling, uncovering an era in modern music surrounded in mythology and rumor. From the first essay about the Zimmerman brothers' trip to the fateful Altemont Speedway concert in 1969 to the concluding essay about the demise of the music industry, this compelling book uncovers an unexplored segment of American music.
