Ten 35 Novels and Are Work- Ing on a Streak of 43 Consecutive No ARAB TIMES, THURSDAY, APRIL 29, 2021 NEWS/FEATURES 13 People & Places Books Publisher pulls Roth bio John Grisham pens a basketball thriller By Rob Merrill ooley,’ by John Grisham (Doubleday) ‘S When you’ve written 35 novels and are work- ing on a streak of 43 consecutive No. 1 New York Times bestsellers, you can write about whatever you want. That’s probably the simplest way to explain why John Grisham’s latest is a basketball story and doesn’t feature a single courtroom scene. It’s not the fi rst sports book for Grisham, of course, but it’s the fi rst set in the big-time world of college hoops. Samuel Sooleymon, nicknamed Sooley, is a 17-year-old playing on dirt courts in his native South Sudan when we fi rst meet him. Growing like a weed and with an infectious passion for the game, soon he’s in Orlando playing on a team of traveling Sudanese all-stars, showcasing his skills for col- lege coaches. The joy of a Grisham novel is turning the pages as the plot propels you forward, so I’ll avoid revealing too much. Suf- fi ce it to say “Sooley” follows the familiar Grisham playbook - short chapters, plenty of fore- shadowing, and a rapid-fi re Grisham prose that’s easy to read and hard to put down. Grisham seems to enjoy moonlighting as a sportswriter. There are entire paragraphs that read like AP game recaps: “Central ripped off a 14-0 run and led by 15 at the half...

Yet. Respect is out there on the fl oor, just waiting for us to go get it.” If they can get the casting right, it’ll make an action- Music packed sports movie.

  • „Lightning Bolt“ Nachfolger Von „Backspacer“ Pearl Jam Im Oktober Mit Neuem Studioalbum
    Ob ihr neues Album "Lightning Bolt" ähnlich frisch klingt wie "Backspacer" vor vier Jahren? Pearl Jam stehen vor der Veröffentlichung ihres zehnten Albums. „Lightning Bolt“ Nachfolger von „Backspacer“ Pearl Jam im Oktober mit neuem Studioalbum 12. Juli 2013, Von: Redaktion, Foto(s): Steve Gullick Als die US-Grunge-Rocker Pearl Jam vor vier Jahren ihr Album „Backspacer“ auf den Markt brachten, glaubten einige, die Band hätte eine besonders intensive musikalische Frischzellenkur genossen: Griffiges Songwriting, modernes, leicht extravagantes Coverartwork und ein knackig-frischer Sound zeichneten das von Brendan ´O Brien produzierte Album aus. Der Produzent ist geblieben, die Songs sind neu: Im Oktober präsentieren Pearl Jam ihr neuestes Studiowerk. Es kommt vor, dass Pearl Jam vor allem mit der Seattle-Grunge-Ära der frühen Neunziger in Verbindung gebracht, als die Band um Sänger und Frontmann Eddie Vedder mit Bands wie Nirvana die Speerspitze des Genres bildete. Alben wie das 1991 erschiene „Ten“ oder der 1993er-Longplayer „Vs.“ zählen zu den besonders populären Platten der Band. Wer Pearl Jam in jüngerer Vergangenheit ein wenig aus den Augen verloren hat, der mag sich wundern, wie frisch, spielfreudig und gewissermaßen auch jung die Band auf dem im September 2009 veröffentlichten und vielbeachteten Album „Backspacer“ herüberkommt, das mit rund 32 Minuten Spielzeit recht kurz ausgefallen ist, dafür aber nach Ansicht vieler um so packender und kurzweiliger klingt. Für den 11.Oktober, also gut vier Jahre nach „Backspacer“ kündigen Pearl Jam die Veröffentlichung ihres neue Studioalbums „Lightning Bolt“, die mittlerweile zehnte Platte der Band, an. Versprochen werden im Vorfeld „klassische Gitarrensounds“ und „mitreißendes Songwriting“ (Medieninfo). Auch 12.

  • Political Pearl Jam Raises Pepsi Center Roof
    Political Pearl Jam raises Pepsi Center roof The Gazette (Colorado Springs, CO) April 3, 2003 | ROBIN A. ROTHMAN; THE GAZETTE It was 11 p.m. when the house lights came up Tuesday at the Pepsi Center, but the guys in Pearl Jam weren't ready to vacate the stage. They weren't concerned that they were 15 minutes past curfew. After all, it was the start of their 2003 U.S. tour and they had barely begun the third song of their second encore. The crowd was equally determined to "Keep on Rockin' in the Free World" for at least a few more minutes. The song, both in performance and in sentiment - "Take to the streets! Raise your voice!" - was a powerful ending to a night of varied content and mixed response. Amply sprinkled with tunes from their latest release, "Riot Act," the set list adequately represented the group's catalog, but the selection was clearly geared toward those fans dedicated enough to own albums after the debut "Ten" and follow-up "Vs." "Love Boat Captain," a touching tribute to the nine fans trampled when the band played in Denmark in 2000, opened the show slow and steady at 8:45 p.m. with the borrowed idea that "All you need is love." "Corduroy" and "Better Man" were obvious crowd-pleasers, and unsurprisingly those rare, older, bigger hits like "Even Flow," "Porch" and "Daughter" prompted sing-alongs. "I see you're into the song," frontman Eddie Vedder improvised during "Black," tying it in as if it were a standard lyric.

  • Sulla Storia Della Nascita Dei Pearl Jam C'è Molto Di Più Di Quanto È
    Sulla storia della nascita dei Pearl Jam c’è molto di più di quanto è sempre stato raccontato. Per scoprirlo ho intervistato Eddie Vedder, Stone Gossard, Jeff Ament, Matt Cameron, Chris Cornell e altri attori chiave, ho ripescato manufatti originali del 1990 e ho dato la caccia a registrazioni rare, ho triangolato dati e messo insieme ogni fatto. Per celebrare il ventesimo compleanno dei Pearl Jam, sono orgogliosa di presentare il frutto di oltre 10 anni di minuziosa ricerca originale. Fate un bricco di caffè, accendete la stampante e preparatevi ad una lunga e avvincente lettura ricca di dettagli inediti sugli eventi del 1990, l’anno in cui una serie di magiche e selvagge coincidenze portarono all’unione di un improbabile gruppo di persone che diventarono i PEARL JAM. Jessica Letkemann, ottobre 2010 INVERNO Il nuovo decennio era iniziato in maniera radiosa per il ventitreenne Stone Gossard, il ventiseienne Jeff Ament e i loro compagni dei Mother Love Bone. Il primo album della band, Apple, stava per uscire, il manager Kelly Curtis stava organizzando un tour che sarebbe partito ad aprile, subito dopo l’uscita del disco, e il frontman Andy Wood non stava usando droghe. Il loro primo concerto del 1990 si teneva due giorni dopo capodanno (cinque giorni prima del ventiquattresimo compleanno di Andy) al Vogue, il piccolo club che da allora ha le parole MOTHER LOVE BONE dipinte sulla facciata dell’edificio. La band, speranzosa ed emozionata, era sostenuta inoltre, come fece notare Andy dal palco, dalla nascita della prima figlia di Kelly, avvenuta poco prima, quello stesso giorno.

It’s a word that was used to describe a number chains of different “alternative” bands from the region in 1980s, and then also into the 1990s with bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, Mudhoney and Screaming Trees. The first noted instance of referring to a Seattle band as “grunge,” was in a 1981 letter by Mark Arm, according to Clark Humphrey in his account of the Seattle music scene, Loser. pearl jam Bruce Pavitt later claimed to have popularized the term as a musical label in 1987, when he wrote some promotional copy for Green River, describing the band as “ultra-loose grunge that destroyed the morals of a generation”. In the late 80s, “grunge” did actually define a sound – high levels of distortion, feedback, fuzz effects, a fusion of punk and metal influences. Many of these bands were on either the C/Z or Sub Pop record labels. Jack Endino, the so-called “Godfather of Grunge” recorded Soundgarden, Mudhoney, Green River, Nirvana and Blood Circus between 1984 and 1989.
