or motivation technique or whatever. you'd understand if you've been
bored your arses out of quiet teachers. this way the kids get ambitious
and individualist and are less prone to wanking. plus it shields them
against winding up as drugged up commercial trash.

here, read the comments at metacritic and make your mind up. and on a
sidenote, nothing's wrong with this one, and everything's wrong with
the kids in JESUS CAMP. oh great peatty may disagree, he may also go
spank himself. it's about time we had kids playing alternative rock.
however the range of comments at metacritic are an excellent example of
the what the fuckness that one must take into account (for the
hermeneutically challenged among us).

perhaps we could have gotten more than five minutes of the frank zappa
riffing at the end, but the point is, like with my own great poetry,
greatness is 10 per cent inspiration and 90 per cent perspiration. work
in progress. in media res. oh how pretentious of me.

obviously colour my thinking

His autobiography is published on 5th February by Harper Collins in the
UK. So far they have not got a deal to publish it in the USA so they
only way to get it, for now, is from a UK store such as Amazon.
Morrissey wrote the foreward, hence the quote.

I'm happy to answer any questions as to what the book covers. Bowie
fans, T.Rex fans and those with an interest in record production will
not be disappointed. Having said that fans of most everyone that Tony
has worked with will get some great insights into the making of many of
the records he's made. At the same time it's not just a "I did this and
then I did that" kind of a book.

This is the official press release...

"He is a noble example of the self-flogger who knows that the song
doesn't end just because it's over. Musical notations are images,
and the Visconti style is timeless and lionized and is therefore
forevermore."
MORRISSEY

Tony Visconti has worked with the most dynamic and influential names in
pop; no record producer in the history of popular music has enjoyed
such a varied and distinguished career. From T.Rex and Iggy Pop to
David Bowie and U2. This is the compelling life story of the man who
helped shape music history.

Visconti was born in New York in 1944. By the 1950s he was inspired
from seeing Buddy Holly and Chuck Berry on stage at New York's
Paramount theatre. He worked as a musician in the Catskill Mountains,
in a hotel not unlike the one featured in 'Dirty Dancing'. He also
became an accomplished photographer and his autobiography is
complemented by unseen photographs from his personal archive. It
provides a unique insight into life in London during the late 1960s and
'70s and a glimpse at music history that few have witnessed so
intimately.

He abandoned his native New York for 'Swinging London' in 1967 -
the summer of love - with no idea how the long strange trip of his life
would unfold. He set about learning the arcane studio secrets that he
felt were known only to the British. Within a few years Visconti was
present at the birth of glam rock, working with T.Rex and the
then-unknown David Bowie; he was also creating studio secrets of his
own

Visconti has worked with such names as Thin Lizzy, Paul McCartney, Joe
Cocker, Sparks, The Boomtown Rats, Marsha Hunt, Procol Harum, Elaine
Page and more recently Ziggy Marley, Mercury Rev, the Manic Street
Preachers and Morrissey on his acclaimed No.1 album 'Ringleader of the
Tormentors'. Visconti has helped redefine eclectic.

Even Visconti's personal life betrays an existence utterly immersed in
music. Married first to Siegrid Berman, then to Mary Hopkin and later
to May Pang. Tony Visconti is one of the rare record producers that has
mastered the three major arts of recording, when most only offer one or
two. Like a film director he coaches the performers he works with in
singing and playing, he writes and conducts orchestral scores and he is
considered to be a consummate recording engineer. He currently lives in
Manhattan, New York and shares a studio in the same complex with his
friend and idol, the composer Philip Glass. He practices Tai Chi daily
and twice a week with his neighbour Lou Reed.

singer/guitarist José Feliciano in over a decade. The multi-talented
musician is probably best remembered for his 1967 hit version of "Light
My Fire," the theme for Chico & the Man, the holiday standard "Feliz
Navidad" and a controversial 1968 version of the "Star Spangled Banner."
But Feliciano has never disappeared; he continued to record sporadically
throughout the '80s, including several popular Spanish language discs as
well as landing a few acting roles in both film and television. For
2007's Soundtrack of My Life, Feliciano, with help from co-producer and
instrumentalist Al Payson, has returned to full-fledged music making
with his trademark flamenco flavored, Latin pop intact; he wrote all the
material, played the majority of instruments and produced what turned
out to be a soulful D.I.Y. album. The titles reflect what's been on his
mind over the past decade: "One Never Knows," "Face the Music," "Dancin'
and Romancin'" and a candidate for most direct anti-war sentiment during
the last half of the Bush administration "Killing's Not the Answer."
Anyone who mistakenly placed José Feliciano in an oldies time capsule
should check out Soundtrack of My Life.
