Drawing on firsthand recollections from rockers, filmmakers, writers, and other artists who have been transformed by Mick Jagger’s work, acclaimed music journalist Marc Spitz has created a unique examination of the Jagger legacy. Combining biography with cultural history, Jagger unfolds like a captivating documentary, a series of episodes tracing the icon’s rise from his childhood in middle-class postwar London to his status as a jet-setting knight.Culturally astute, often funny, and painstakingly researched, Jagger offers a far richer potrait than biographies published previously. The book reveals much about his relationships (with Marianne Faithfull and ex-wives Bianca Jagger and Jerry Hall); his complex, creative partership with Keith Richards; his friends, including John Lennon and David Bowie; and his enemies, such as Hells Angels leader Sonny Barger. Spitz goes even deeper, exploring Jagger’s many roles: authentic soul man; powerful social commentator; sexual liberator; would-be movie star; and a shrewd businessman with an enthusiasm for much younger women. The myth of Mick is examined and rebooted for the twenty-first century. I had really high hopes for this Jagger biography. I greatly enjoyed Spitzs Bowie bio, and assumed wed get the same meticulous details and documentary-style chronology. As soon as the book arrived, though, and I saw how thin it was, I had a sinking feeling. All Spitz has done is to write a Cliff Notes version of Jaggers/The Stones history. The book reads like a longform sociological essay. But there is absolutely nothing new here. One can learn more about Jagger and the Stones in the Victor Bockris Keith Richards biography, or any number of other books.If someone knew absolutely nothing about the Stones and needed a quick overview, then, yes, what the heck, read this book. But man, oh man, what an incredible disappointment. Spitz knocked this out quickly. The question is, why? The world wasnt crying out for another Jagger book unless it was something really in-depth and new. This book aint it, and Im so bummed that I spent the money to buy a copy right when it came out.

  • (Roy Halston Frowick) (1932-1990) by Shaun Cole
    Halston (Roy Halston Frowick) (1932-1990) by Shaun Cole Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com The first international fashion superstar, Halston was a master of cut, detail, and finish. He dressed and befriended some of America's most glamorous women. Jackie Kennedy Onassis, Elizabeth Taylor, Babe Paley, Barbara Walters, Lauren Bacall, Bianca Jagger, and Liza Minnelli were just some of the women who wore Halston. Roy Halston Frowick was born on April 23, 1932 in Des Moines, Iowa, the second son of a Norwegian- American accountant with a passion for inventing. Roy developed an interest in sewing from his mother. As an adolescent he began creating hats and embellishing outfits for his mother and sister. Roy graduated from high school in 1950 then attended Indiana University for one semester. After the family moved to Chicago in 1952, he enrolled in a night course at the Chicago Art Institute and worked as a window dresser. Frowick's first big break came when the Chicago Daily News ran a brief story on his fashionable hats. In 1957 he opened his first shop, the Boulevard Salon, on Michigan Avenue. It was at this point that he began to use his middle name as his professional moniker. With the help of a lover twenty-five years his senior, celebrity hair stylist André Basil, Halston further developed his career by moving to New York later in 1957. Basil introduced Halston to milliner Lilly Daché, who offered him a job. Within a year he had been named co-designer at Daché, become the new best friend of several fashion editors and publishers, and left Daché's studio to become head milliner for department store Bergdorf Goodman.

  • Undercover Power Play One Friday Afternoon in 1983 the Phone Rang
    Undercover Power Play One Friday afternoon in 1983 the phone rang. “Hi, is that Bill Smith? This is Mick Jagger.” Art designer, Bill smith, looked around his studio to see who the prankster was. It was no prank. It was Mick Jagger and he liked the work of Bill Smith Studio. Jagger asked Smith to make a meeting the next Monday and he did. Smith discussed ideas about the new album Undercover with Charlie Watts. Smith was asked to come up with some visuals by that Friday for a band meeting in New York City. Smith was met at JFK airport by a white stretch limo that dropped his stuff at the Central Plaza Hotel and then drove on to Jagger’s New York Residence for a meeting with Jagger, Watts, Ronnie Wood, and Bill Wyman. Smith said, “The cover idea they all loved was a montage of each guy’s head with the head of an animal or a bird or a reptile- ‘undercover’- do you see? I think I prepared two really good montages one of Mick and a cheetah and one of Keith and a panther, the other montages were very rough and needed a lot of work still, to make them really look good, but they all seemed to like the initial idea including the inner bag concept which was some amazing Victorian illustrations of different apple varieties…” Smith’s idea was resurrected in 1992 Jagger told Smith everyone loiked the idea but because by Albert Watson in Los Angeles Keith Richards was not at the meeting he asked Smith where Jagger was photographed with to stay in New York for a few days and complete al the a cheetah for the 25th anniversary of artwork for the album cover and its inner sleeves, while Rolling Stone magazine.

  • LOOKING BACK in HISTORY Happenings in the Cookeville Area As Recorded in the Pages of the Herald Citizen Newspaper, Cookeville, TN
    WAY BACK WHEN: LOOKING BACK IN HISTORY Happenings in the Cookeville area as recorded in the pages of the Herald Citizen Newspaper, Cookeville, TN. By Bob McMillian 1950’s (Compiled by Audrey J. Lambert) http://www.ajlambert.com 1950 (January 5, 1950) “Music lovers of this Upper Cumberland area” have got something exciting to look forward to next week when a young piano team — Vera Apple and Michael Field — plays at Tennessee Tech. They are “two wizards of the keyboards who play and think as one,” according to a recent review in the New York World Telegram. They studied together at Julliard, went their own ways, and then met by chance and formed a piano duo. Their concert is the subject of a major page•one story this week here. In other entertainment news, the Central High School Cavaliers will meet Crossville in a basketball game set to be played in the school’s new gymnasium (now Cookeville Junior High). The new gym was part of a $217,000 renovation and expansion of the school. It is larger than the old one and boasts fold•up bleachers. (January 12, 1950) An advertisement for Citizens Bank reads: “There’s a tribe in South Africa that requires a prospective bridegroom to milk a lioness as proof of his bravery. You needn’t be brave to open an account with us. Our friendly staff makes even widows and orphans feel at ease.” (January 19, 1950) Cookeville’s Postmaster F. P. Moore says he’s seen a lot of changes in postal service here since he became postmaster in 1939.

  • Von Zweien Die Auszogen Um Einzujaggern
    Von Zweien die auszogen um einzujaggern ... Post by “Stuempfig” of May 11th 2018, 1:00 am Ich versuche es mal der Reihe nach ... Bernd kannte Chris, der den Kombi von Jerry geschenkt bekommen hatte, die mit seinem Bruder Mick verheiratet war. Mick wiederum war der Meinung, dass dieses Modell der passende fahrbare Untersatz bei 4 Kindern wäre. Also bestellte er 1994 über Brentford in London den Kombinationskraftwagen der Marke Mercedes Benz für Jerry, die, wie Chris meinte, nie sonderlich gut damit zurechtkam. Also wurde nach wenigen Jahren Micks Bruder der Besitzer und tingelte, da ebenfalls Musiker, fortan durch Europa. Seine Musikrichtung tendiert Richtung Cajun und Folkblues. Definitiv der hörbaren Art. Nur eben nicht so erfolgreich in den Musikerhimmel zementiert wie der Rock'n Blues Pop des wesentlich bekannteren Bruders. Und ja, Bernd hatte Chris vor vier Jahren als Aktivposten des Jazzforums kennengelernt und seitdem lockeren Kontakt gepflegt. Als die Idee des vdh-Museums in Berlin, Bonn und Ornbau durchgesponnen wurde, war auch Bernd nicht untätig. Besser noch, er nahm Chris in die Pflicht und machte ihm das Museum schmackhaft, bzw. brachte in zig Emails die vage Idee ins große Rund, dass dieser Kombi eigentlich seinen endgültigen Stellplatz in Ornbau haben sollte. Elf Wochen später war auch Chris der Überzeugung dass bei einem Preis von zweitausend Pfund zwar nicht seine Rente gesichert, aber zumindest das sternverzierte Fahrzeug gut versorgt wäre. Und mein Freund mal ganz unter uns: Wenn die Gunst der Stunde schon geradewegs in deinen Vorgarten fällt, darf man auch so umgehend wie geschwind die Gelegenheit beim Schopfe packen und handeln.
