Walter Fuchs Das neue große Buch der Country Music Königswinter: Heel 2005 (360, ill. - 30 cm) ISBN: 978-3-89880-364-9 |
Über zehn Jahre ist es her, dass im HEEL Verlag „Das Buch der Country Music“ von Country-Music-Experte Walter Fuchs in der zweiten Auflage erschienen ist. Seither ist das Buch, das unter den Freunden dieser typischsten aller amerikanischen Musikrichtungen als Bibel zum Thema gilt, vergriffen. Anlass genug, eine völlig überarbeitete Neuauflage auf den Markt zu bringen. Denn in den vergangenen Jahren hat sich in den USA und in Europa viel getan: Einflüsse der Country Music spiegeln sich in der modernen Rockmusik wider, und eine neue, junge Generation lässt sich von Shania Twain und den Dixie Chicks begeistern. Natürlich finden der interessierte Laie wie auch der Spezialist wieder einen geschichtlichen Überblick, die Erläuterung der diversen Stilrichtungen, Musikinstrumente und Zentren dieser Musik. Im umfassenden biographischen Teil des Buches werden die wichtigsten Künstler und Gruppen in alphabetischer Reihenfolge mit ihren wichtigsten Daten vorgestellt – angefangen von den frühen 20er-Jahren bis heute.

Mary A. Bufwack / Robert K. Oermann Finding Her Voice Women in Country Music, 1800 - 2000 The Country Music Press & Vanderbilt University Press 2003 (607, ill. - ca. 17,8 x 25,4 cm) ISBN -08265-1432-4 |
After its initial publication in 1993, Mary A. Bufwack and Robert K. Oermann's Finding Her Voice: The Saga of Women in Country Music quickly became an essential book for country music scholars and fans. Now back in print, with updated material, an additional chapter, and new photos, Finding Her Voice is poised to reach a whole new generation of country music fans.
From country's earliest pioneers to its greatest legends, Finding Her Voice documents the lives of the female artists who have shaped the music for over two hundred years. Through interviews, photos, and primary texts, Bufwack and Oermann weave a vast and complex tapestry of personalities and talent. Long overlooked and underappreciated by scholars, female country music artists have always been immensely popular with fans. This book gets to the heart of the special bond female artists have with their audiences. People seeking to understand the context out of which mega-stars such as Shania Twain, Faith Hill, and the Dixie Chicks emerged need look no farther than this book. (from the back cover of the book)
