  • Warner/Reprise Loss Leaders Booklet
    THE WARNER BROS. LOSS LEADERS SERIES (1969-1980) Depending On How You Count Them, 34 Essential Various Artist Collections From Another Time We figured it was about time to pull together all of the incredible Warner Bros. Loss Leaders releases dating back to 1969 (and even a little earlier). For those who lived through the era, Warner Bros. Records was winning the sales of an entire generation by signing and supporting some of music’s most uniquely groundbreaking recording artists… during music’s most uniquely groundbreak- ing time. With an appealingly irreverent style (“targeted youth marketing,” it would be called today), WB was making lifelong fans of the kids who entered into the label’s vast catalog of art- ists via the Loss Leaders series—advertised on inner sleeves & brochures, and offering generous selections priced at $1 per LP, $2 for doubles and $3 for their sole 3-LP release, Looney Tunes And Merrie Melodies. And that was including postage. Yes… those were the days, but back then there were very few ways, outside of cut-out bins or a five-finger discount, to score bulk music as cheaply. Warners unashamedly admitted that their inten- tions were to sell more records, by introducing listeners to music they weren’t hearing on their radios, or finding in many of their (still weakly distributed) record stores. And it seemed to work… because the series continued until 1980, and the program issued approximately 34 titles, by our questionable count (detailed in later posts). But, the oldsters among us all fondly remember the multi-paged, gatefold sleeves and inviting artwork/packaging that beckoned from the inner sleeves of our favorite albums, not to mention the assorted rarities, b-sides and oddities that dotted many of the releases.

  • Game of Text: Bruce Lee's Media Legacies
    GCH0010.1177/2059436419869565Global Media and ChinaBowman 869565research-article2019 Special Issue Article Global Media and China 2019, Vol. 4(3) 325–338 Game of text: Bruce © The Author(s) 2019 Article reuse guidelines: Lee’s media legacies sagepub.com/journals-permissions https://doi.org/10.1177/2059436419869565DOI: 10.1177/2059436419869565 journals.sagepub.com/home/gch Paul Bowman Cardiff University, UK Abstract This article situates Bruce Lee at the heart of the emergence of ‘martial arts’. It argues that the notion ‘martial arts’, as we now know it, is a discursive entity that emerged in the wake of media texts, and that the influence of Bruce Lee films of the early 1970s was both seminal and structuring of ‘martial arts’, in ways that continue to be felt. Using the media theory proposition that a limited range of ‘key visuals’ structure the aesthetic terrain of the discursive entity ‘martial arts’, the article assesses the place, role and status of images of Bruce Lee as they work intertextually across a wide range of media texts. In so doing, the article demonstrates the enduring media legacy of Bruce Lee – one that has always overflowed the media realm and influenced the lived, embodied lifestyles of innumerable people the world over, who have seen Bruce Lee and other martial arts texts and gone on to study Chinese and Asian martial arts because of them. Keywords Bruce Lee, discourse, discursive entity, martial arts, media legacy Introduction: the origin of martial arts The term ‘martial arts’ is so familiar to us that we barely notice that it is a misnomer.

He attacked espe­ cially the present governmeht for their apparent obsession with secrecy. Terry and In a hard hitting speech under the title of 'Pressures on the Press', Mr Gerry Trelford made a detailed survey of both the obvious and the hidden threats to Press freedom. Mr Trelford opened his case by citing the phrase 'the half free Press' , coined by former Times and Sunday Times editor Harold Evans to contrast Press freedom in Britain !Wi th that of the United States. "But , if ten years ago, our media had half the freedom of the US", Mr Trelford said, "no one can seri­ ously doubt that our rating now is consiflerably less than 50%." "Lonnie Donegan??
