Lost Sounds
Author: Tim BrooksPublisher: University of Illinois Press
ISBN: 0252090632
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 656
Book Description
A groundbreaking history of African Americans in the early recording industry, Lost Sounds examines the first three decades of sound recording in the United States, charting the surprising roles black artists played in the period leading up to the Jazz Age and the remarkably wide range of black music and culture they preserved. Drawing on more than thirty years of scholarship, Tim Brooks identifies key black recording artists and profiles forty audio pioneers. Brooks assesses the careers and recordings of George W. Johnson, Bert Williams, George Walker, Noble Sissle, Eubie Blake, the Fisk Jubilee Singers, W. C. Handy, James Reese Europe, Wilbur Sweatman, Harry T. Burleigh, Roland Hayes, Booker T. Washington, and boxing champion Jack Johnson, plus a host of lesser-known voices. Many of these pioneers struggled to be heard in an era of rampant discrimination. Their stories detail the forces––black and white––that gradually allowed African Americans to enter the mainstream entertainment industry. Lost Sounds includes Brooks's selected discography of CD reissues and an appendix by Dick Spottswood describing early recordings by black artists in the Caribbean and South America.

Book Description
Celebrated illustrator, veteran mother, and beloved daughter Mary Engelbreit has created a beautiful and poignant tribute to the one woman most deserving of our affection and gratitude-Mom! Motherhood has been an endless source of inspiration for Mary's art since she joined the ranks of the weary but willing. Mothers are their children's nurturers, heroes, booboo fixers, cheerleaders, confidantes, entertainers, and first loves. No one is as adept at depicting these many facets of motherhood as Mary Engelbreit. In this beautifully produced keepsake-with its cloth cover, gilded edges, quality paper, and ribbon marker-you'll find excerpts from classic literature such as Little Women, contemporary prose from authors such as Alice Walker and Anna Quindlen, beloved songs and lullabies, and for the first time ever, the true story of Ann Estelle, including family photographs. Mary has liberally illustrated this treasury edition with never before published art. Every fan of Mary Engelbreit will want this classic for their own collection-and several extras for the mothers and grandmothers in their lives.
