Birth of the Groove – R&B, Soul and Funk Guitar: 1945-1965 – Book and CD Package $19.99 The years 1945-1965 saw a radical and exciting shift in American popular music. Blues and swing jazz helped to produce a new musical form called rhythm and blues, which in turn set in motion the development of soul and funk, not to mention rock ‘n’ roll. What united these genres was an emphasis on the beat, or the groove, over the melody that would culminate in the syncopated monochord workouts of funk. Along the way, some of the greatest electric guitarists of the postwar years explored the boundaries of the new instrument with a rich array of hot licks. This book/CD pack explores everything from the swinging boogie of Tiny Grimes, to the sweaty primal funk of Jimmy Nolen, to the styles of Mickey Baker, Billy Butler, Steve Cropper, Cornell Dupree, Jerry Jemmott, Curtis Mayfield, Ike Turner and everyone in between. Includes in-depth lessons, historical analysis, rare photos, and a CD with 33 full-band tracks. |

Irish People of Welsh Descent: The Edge, Arthur Griffith, Carl Hardebeck, Isaac Cohen, Hilton Edwards $9.53 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: David Howell Evans (born 8 August 1961 in Barking, London, England), more widely known by his stage name The Edge (or just Edge), is an Irish musician. He is best known as the guitarist, keyboardist, and main backing vocalist of rock band U2. His distinctive electric guitar timbre and percussive style of playing, along with his use of digital sound processing delay and chorus in particular has been crucial in defining U2′s sound. In 2003, Rolling Stone magazine named him at #24 on its list of “The 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time”. David Howell Evans was born at the Barking Maternity Hospital, Essex, England to Welsh parents Garvin and Gwenda Evans. When he was just one, his family moved to County Dublin, Ireland where he attended St. Andrew’s National School. He received piano and guitar lessons and often performed with his brother Dik Evans before they both answered an advertisement posted by Larry Mullen, Jr. at their school, Mount Temple Comprehensive School, seeking musicians to form a band. The band accepted both of them. This band went through several incarnations before emerging as U2 in March 1978 (Dik Evans left the band just before the name change). U2 began performing in various venues in Ireland and eventually began developing a following. Their debut album, Boy, was released in 1980. In 1981, leading up to the October tour, Evans came very close to leaving U2 for religious reasons, but he was persuaded to stay. During this period, he became involved with a group called Shalom Tigers, in which bandmates Bono and Larry Mullen Jr. were also involved. Shortly after deciding to remain with the band, he wrote a piece of music that later became “Sunday Bloody Sunday”. The Edge married his secondary school girlfriend Aislinn O’Sulli… More: |

Originally, his brother Eddie had taken lessons for drums, while Alex practiced guitar. After spending time playing Eddie’s drum kit, Alex became more skillful at the drums than Eddie. In 1974 Alex, Eddie, David Lee Roth and Michael Anthony became known as Van Halen. They were signed to Warner Brothers in 1977 and released their first album in 1978. Early life Alex Van Halen was born in Amsterdam . His Dutch father Jan (b. 1920) was an accomplished saxophonist and clarinet player. His mother Eugenia (b. 1914) is from Indonesia . He spent his childhood in Nijmegen in the east of the country. The family moved to Pasadena, California , USA , in 1962.

Although Alex is known as a professional drummer, he began his musical aspirations as a guitarist, with his brother Eddie taking up drums. While Eddie was delivering newspapers to pay for his drum kit, Alex would practice playing on them. When Eddie heard Alex’s mastery of The Surfaris drum solo in the song “Wipe Out “, he decided to begin learning to play the electric guitar. He was also influenced by Budgie drummer, Ray Phillips . In 1971, Alex graduated from Pasadena High School . He then took classes in music theory, scoring, composition and arranging at Pasadena City College for a short while. While attending Pasadena |

People from Freeborn County, Minnesota: Eddie Cochran, Ben Woodside, Henry O. Talle, Alexander Grinager, Audra Lynn, Robin Brown, Tom Brown $10.09 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Edward Ray Cochran (October 3, 1938 April 17, 1960) was an American rock and roll musician and an important influence on popular music during the late 1950s, early 1960s. Cochran was born in Albert Lea, Minnesota, as Edward Ray Cochran. His parents were from Oklahoma and he always stated in interviews that he was from Oklahoma. He took music lessons in school, but quit the band to play drums. Also, rather than taking piano lessons, he began learning guitar, playing the country music he heard on the radio. In 1955, Cochran’s family moved to Bell Gardens, California. As his guitar playing improved, he formed a band with two friends from his junior high school. During a show featuring many performers at an American Legion hall, he met Hank Cochran (later a country music songwriter). Although they were not related, they recorded as The Cochran Brothers and began performing together. Eddie Cochran also worked as a session musician, and began writing songs, making a “demo” with Jerry Capehart, his future manager. When playing with Hank Cochran, Eddie Cochran played a Gibson electric acoustic guitar with a single florentine cutaway. This guitar featured a pair of Gibson P90 pickups, sometimes called ‘dog ear’ pickups due to their shape. Later, Cochran moved to a 1956 Gretsch 6120 Chet Atkins Western model, which Eddie had modified. He replaced the neck position De Armond Dynasonic pickup with a black covered Gibson P-90 pickup. He also used Martin acoustic guitars. In 1956, Boris Petroff asked Cochran if he would appear in the musical comedy film The Girl Can’t Help It. He agreed and sang a song called “Twenty Flight Rock” in the movie. In 1957, Cochran starred in his second film, Untamed Youth and also had his first hit, “Sittin’ in the Balcony,” o… More: |
