  • Advance Praise for Something to Believe In
    Advance praise for Something To Believe In ‘Andrew Stafford’sSomething To Believe In is quite an achievement. It’s all here: part tragicomic tale of a fanboy writer struggling to translate his primal affair with music into a “real” job; part exco- riating account of his ride from adolescence to adulthood and self-discovery; and part blossoming tale of love and forgiveness. Written with great humanity and girded by a soundtrack to die for – which he almost did on more than one occasion – this memoir is a punchy, unputdownable must-read.’ PETER GARRETT ‘A pulsing, rattling jukebox of a music memoir. Drop a coin, find your sound. Rock and punk and pop; the rock bottom and the very top. Love, family, sorrow, pain; the birds, the blues, the brain. A pull out your heart and feed it to anyone rock & roll sock to the core, Something To Believe In is a soaring, sweat-soaked tribute to life’s two great miracles: music and waking up each day to hear it.’ TRENT DALTON ‘Lyrical, wise and full of wonder. Andrew Stafford strips himself bare with courage, candour, and vulnerability.’ TRACEY SPICER ‘Andrew Stafford takes us on an exhilarating ride through his life as birdwatcher, cab driver, roadie, son, lover and writer. His astute and insightful observations on music and politics in Brisbane in particular from the late eighties provide a stunning backdrop to this personal expression of his life story.’ LINDY MORRISON ‘This beautifully written book reminded me of how much music helps us navigate through life, in all its complicated glory.’ MYF WARHURST Andrew Stafford is a freelance journalist and the author of Pig City: From The Saints To Savage Garden, a musical and political history of Brisbane first published in 2004.

Not only did people fear the loss of life and limb but the very nature of their existence came into question. While deemed the “cold” war due to the lack of a direct military conflict, battle is not all that constitutes a war. A war of ideas took place. Despite the attempt to eliminate outside influence, both East and West felt the impact of each other’s cultural movements.

Some say this film reinvented zombies, who were shown in earlier films such as Animals Real and Imagined "White Zombie" as "beings whose brains had been zapped by some 'master' who was then able to control their actions," according to the University of Michigan website. Zombies are even Animals Real and Imagined in Haitian folklore, with the Haitian word "zombi" meaning "spirit of the dead. And according to legend, Animals Real and Imagined Haiti a zombi is someone who has annoyed his or her family and community to the degree that they can no longer stand to live with this person. They respond by hiring a Bokor, a vodoun priest who practices black magic and sorcery, to Animals Real and Imagined them into a Animals Real and Imagined according to the Florida Museum of Natural History.

    The Ultimate Playlist This list comprises more than 3000 songs (song titles), which have been released between 1931 and 2021, either as a single or as a track of an album. However, one has to keep in mind that more than 300000 songs have been listed in music charts worldwide since the beginning of the 20th century [web: http://tsort.info/music/charts.htm].

  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.
