As captured by one of its greatest artists and instigators, and designed by Shepard Fairey, this book is a must-have celebration of the new-wave and punk scene, whose influence on music and fashion is just as relevant today as it was four decades ago.Enter the Wu Tang (36 Chambers) is both critically-hailed and popularly-lauded as one of hip-hop's seminal releases, establishing Wu Tang as rap's eminent dynasty in the mid 90s while ushering in a new age of grimy production and inscrutable lyrics that was often imitated but never again repeated in terms of originality, innovation, or sheer impact.The wicked style and themes pop of the page and into readers¿ minds, making them a feel like a certified Juggalo.Pulse of the People lays a foundation for the study of political rap music and public opinion research and demonstrates ways in which political attitudes asserted in the music have been transformed into direct action and behavior of constituents.With individual chapters which can stand on their own and be assigned out of sequence, Buddhism in America is the ideal textbook and resource for courses on Buddhism in America, American Religious History, and Introduction to Buddhism.The companion book to the groundbreaking PBS and BBC documentary series celebrating the pioneers and artists of American roots musicblues, gospel, folk, Cajun, Appalachian, Hawaiian, Native Americanwithout which there would be no jazz, rock, country R&B, or hip hop today.Bernard McMahon and Allison McGourty, who directed and produced the documentary with American musician Duke Erikson, spent years traveling around the US in search of recollections of those musical pioneers.Rick Stein goes in search of good food in fabulous locations, and all of them just a quick hop, skip and a jump from the UK.Experience the time Archie and Jughead became beatniks!Explore four decades of diecast production, following the route the industry took as it shed outdated techniques for state-of-the-art cars James Bond would have been proud of.For the first time ever, this dictionary now allows writers and poets to ask the same question, but of word rhythm I need a word with the same rhythm as butterfly.
