Book Description
MUSIC YOU WILL NEVER HEAR is told from the perspective of the nephew of William Goudas, who was living with his grandmother and William in Roxbury, Massachusetts, when the crime was committed. From his arrest, to his time in confinement, to the time spent with him after parole, author Angelo J. Kaltsos relates the story of his talented guitar-playing uncle’s wasted life. In 1946, when nineteen-year-old William “Bill” Goudas was recruited to assist in a daring late-evening burglary, he never would have guessed the night would end with the tragic murder of police sergeant William F. Healey. Presenting a true tale of crime and tragedy, Music You Will Never Hear recounts the events of that October evening decades ago, as told by author Angelo J. Kaltsos, Goudas’s nephew. Goudas was a talented musician and had dreams of attending the New England Conservatory of Music, but these were not to come true. Instead, he would spend a large portion of his adult life in prison, leaving his talent to grow only as a prison musician and his family forever affected by the events. From his arrest to his time in confinement to the time spent with him after parole, Kaltsos relates the story of his uncle’s wasted life. This personal narrative, presented from a family member’s perspective, describes the killing of a police sergeant and the killer’s unknown, extraordinary gift as a prison musician. “I would have got up and played in those clubs with all those dudes, but there’re going to ask, who have you played with. What could I say? I’ve played in prison for twenty-two years for killing a cop.” — William Goudas related this story to the author after his trip to New Orleans.

Do Not Sell At Any Price
Author: Amanda Petrusich
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1451667078
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
“A thoughtful, entertaining history of obsessed music collectors and their quest for rare early 78 rpm records” (Los Angeles Times), Do Not Sell at Any Price is a fascinating, complex story of preservation, loss, obsession, and art. Before MP3s, CDs, and cassette tapes, even before LPs or 45s, the world listened to music on fragile, 10-inch shellac discs that spun at 78 revolutions per minute. While vinyl has enjoyed a renaissance in recent years, rare and noteworthy 78rpm records are exponentially harder to come by. The most sought-after sides now command tens of thousands of dollars, when they’re found at all. Do Not Sell at Any Price is the untold story of a fixated coterie of record collectors working to ensure those songs aren’t lost forever. Music critic and author Amanda Petrusich considers the particular world of the 78—from its heyday to its near extinction—and examines how a cabal of competitive, quirky individuals have been frantically lining their shelves with some of the rarest records in the world. Besides the mania of collecting, Petrusich also explores the history of the lost backwoods blues artists from the 1920s and 30s whose work has barely survived and introduces the oddball fraternity of men—including Joe Bussard, Chris King, John Tefteller, and others—who are helping to save and digitize the blues, country, jazz, and gospel records that ultimately gave seed to the rock, pop, and hip-hop we hear today. From Thomas Edison to Jack White, Do Not Sell at Any Price is an untold, intriguing story of the evolution of the recording formats that have changed the ways we listen to (and create) music. “Whether you’re already a 78 aficionado, a casual record collector, a crate-digger, or just someone…who enjoys listening to music, you’re going to love this book” (Slate).
