She's a Rebel: The History of Women in Rock & Roll

4 reviews
Gillian G. Gaar

Blandford Press, 1993

Don't let lack of Nicks nix this book
While I love Stevie Nicks as much as the next person, this book is very important - even without space devoted to her. Sure she is an important figure in rock & roll, but "She's a Rebel" shines valuable light on some of the less-well-known figures in the history of rock. Don't discount a book that should be essential reading to every fan of rock music just because of an omission.

Loving John

5 reviews
May Pang, Henry Edwards

Warner Books, 1983

First hand account
To believe or not to believe - well, the more you read on John's life the more disbelief befalls you. The Ray Coleman-Eliot Mintz book is nearly unreadable as it goes overboard often (i.e., many repeats of the "John was such a super macho guy" and the oft repeated "John and Yoko are artists", as though their positions were equal. Lennon's art changed the world, Yoko's got her slight notice). ...

Grapefruit: A Book of Instructions and Drawings by Yoko Ono

Yoko Ono

Simon & Schuster, 2000

Sublime
What can be said? On the surface, it's obviously the most pretentious twaddle ever hard-bound--- the constant little descriptions of strangely mute actions that she calls "pieces", each just a couplet long or so, can grate. Why not actually write a real piece of music, or make a painting, you might begin to ask. Well, look closer. Really close. And listen, too. Hear that rustling? That's wit, dry ...

The Playboy Interviews With John Lennon and Yoko Ono

John Lennon, Yoko Ono, ...

Putnam Pub Group (T), 1981

One of my very favourite books...
I first read this book back in 1983, to gain a little insight of John...and it quickly became my favourite book. Although I don't think Yoko was or is everything he thought, this was a man who truly loved his wife, and believed with his whole heart and soul in their marriage and life together. He was enjoying making music again, so much (this interview was done in September of 1980) and was ...

Yoko Ono, Alexandra Munroe, ..., 2000

YES, YES, YES
I was at the SFMOMA to see her YES exhibition, and exactly what I expected, I was overwhelmed with delight... Her art is whimsically amazing. Her music touches your heart and soul. Seeing all the people there that day, I was glad that Yoko is finally getting all the respect she deserves, after all these years... Also caught her live performance at the Los Angeles's Roxy almost 6 years ago just ...

This is really a great book. It gave me allot of facts. Not just about the working John but also the person John Lennon. The picuters are big and very well taken. It's pictures we have seen before from the Beatles time. But also pictures from his personal life with his sons and wives. It's a wonderful book and a great tribution to John. I loved it.

Memories and Creative Inventions
Super inspirational book with a wealth of information about one of the most interesting people of the 20th Century and also one of the most complex members of the famous rock groups, the Beatles. I found my own creative juices flowing while reading this rich list of testimonials by others in contact with and being influenced from afar by John Lennon, the real person. The book's writers speak of ...

e-flux/Revolver, 2005

an unusual, clever, and fun angle on contemporary art
The editor/curators of this book got 50 contemporary artists to each write down instructions for a do-it-yourself art project, for the reader to try. Each is a small revelation of the artist, and a thought-provoker in itself. It's intelligent and fun -- a very clever expression and extension of contemporary art. It's just the thing for anyone who wishes they were artistic: you read an entry, ...
