Come the late '70s, the rock music landscape was littered with the bloated carcasses of bands who partied too hard, burned out, or became complacent in success. The door was open for something fresh, wild, and enrapturing. Enter Van Halen. Made up of two Dutch-born brothers, one on drums and the other whose guitar was an extension of his very being, a bass player with a golden throat, and a frontman who made up for his lack of singing ability with attitude and gravity-defying acrobatics onstage, they were unlike anything ever seen before.Alex and Edward Van Halen, Michael Anthony, and David Lee Roth put a cap on one decade and exploded into the next with a brand of music not quite punk, not quite metal, and not at all subtle. They went from headlining backyard keggers to top billing at the US Festival in front of three hundred thousand people within five years. Then, right when it looked like there wasn't an obstacle created to slow the Mighty Van Halen ascent, the group imploded from the inside out, only to rebound stronger than ever with ex-Montrose howler Sammy Hagar leading them to four consecutive number one albums. Van Halen: The Eruption and the Aftershock tells the story of how one of America's greatest bands weathered arguably the most dramatic soap opera in rock and roll history with songs that would weave themselves into the fabric of every musician who heard them, alongside an incendiary and unrivaled live show. Featuring exclusive interviews with insiders, fans, and artists who were there to witness the rise, the tumult, and the making of legends, it's a story that has to be read to be believed.

During the course of our biblical studies over the last twenty-five years we've discovered several interesting insights into the Hebrew Scriptures. For example, probably very little of what we've included in this publication would have seen the light of day if we hadn't learned a long time ago to approach everything from an Hebraic perspective. No matter how many times we translate it into other languages the Bible is still an Hebraic book, which introduces several important considerations. Undoubtedly the most important would be the Hebraic approach to writing history, recording recommendations, and even laying out God's law. The same basic approach shows up over and over, beginning in Genesis and ending in Revelation. At the same time it's quite simple, involving just two basic things. First, the ancient Hebrews usually began each written series of observations with a short summary that essentially spelled out what was coming next, perhaps to give the reader a "feel" for what the writer wanted to say. This would then be followed by as many details, both broad-based and intricate, as the author felt necessary to convey his full intent. The first and possibly the clearest example of this unique approach occurs in the first few chapters of Genesis. In these passages God Himself provides an overall summary of the original "Days of Creation," followed by a series of details that essentially fill in the blanks by amplifying and clarifying some of the specifics that came before. But again . . . this is only one example of how the Bible itself, in its overall approach and its specific language, conveys the "full story" and provides the reader with the understanding he or she needs to comprehend God's nature, His purposes, and His hopes for the salvation of mankind. So . . . given all that, we hope that the following short, individual insights into the organization, the specific language itself, the history it reveals, and many other considerations will help you more fully understand and more tenderly treasure the Bible yourself. Essentially, we have tried to highlight some of the "Aha!" moments that we've had in our own studies of the Scriptures. We've grouped them into seven different categories: Science and the BibleEnd TimesPersonal Relationships with GodFrom an Hebraic PerspectiveBiblical HistoryHebrew Language and PictographsBiblical Feasts You will find these individual sections more fully introduced in the Table of Contents, so that when you do your own research you'll be able to more quickly find what interests you the most.

Review “Tupac Shakur fans will find the book an enjoyable read that will aid in preserving the life and work of Tupac Shakur in Hip Hop Memoriam and 1990’s nostalgia.”City Book Review“Tupac Shakur fans will find the book an enjoyable read that will aid in preserving the life and work of Tupac Shakur in Hip Hop Memoriam and 1990’s nostalgia.” Manhattan Book Review Product Description On March 8th, 1995, 2Pac Shakur, arguably the World’s greatest Rapper, arrived at the Clinton Correctional facility in Dannemora, New York, secured in shackles. Tupac walked with his eyes looking forward and his head hung low through the same hardened steel gates of the hundred- and fifty-year-old prison that men such as “Lucky” Luciano and John Gotti had passed through before him. Little has been written or said about Tupac Shakur’s time inside one of America’s most notorious prisons. He remained incarcerated for seven months until his unlikely release on bail on October 12th of the same year. Tupac Behind Bars is a glimpse inside the 2017 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee’s tumultuous time in Dannemora. It marked an important period in his life, one during which he got married, met his self-professed biological father, and signed a deal with Death Row Records on a handwritten contract. The author, Michael Christopher, was a career corrections officer in New York State who reached the rank of Lieutenant before his retirement after almost twenty-seven years of service. During the course of his duties, he had contact with tens of thousands of prisoners, including infamous inmates like David Berkowitz a.k.a. ‘The Son of Sam’ and Robert Chambers a.k.a. ‘The Preppy Killer’, but after more than three decades, the one that left him with a positive memory is Tupac Shakur. Tupac Behind Bars is Officer Christopher’s account of his personal encounters with the famous rapper at the Clinton Correctional Facility.

The preeminent synth-pop outfit for four decades, Depeche Mode have endured an ever-shifting musical landscape, rising above fads and battles with personal demons, somehow managing to retain a hold on the charts and the audience, the latter which continues to grow as new generations discover them and become "devotees." Depeche Mode FAQ: All That's Left to Know About the World's Finest Synth-Pop Band shows how a group of schoolmates influenced by the likes of Kraftwerk, Joy Division, and mid-period David Bowie carved out their own musical niche until they became one of the most influential bands to come out of England. Depeche Mode were Europe's best-kept secret in the early '80s with the albums Construction Time Again and the-perhaps-tongue-in-cheek-titled Music for the Masses. They became a worldwide phenomenon as the '90s dawned, with the landmark LP Violator, containing the smash hits "Personal Jesus," "Enjoy the Silence," and "Policy of Truth." But success came at a price as depression, alcoholism, drug addiction, and personnel departures threatened to derail the band. It wasn't a question of whether the music of Depeche Mode would be able to withstand fickle industry changes, but rather if the members of the group themselves could make it out alive. Depeche Mode FAQ shows how they did, becoming legends in the process.
