Pink Floyd (2023): Historia detras de sus 180 canciones
Se han precisado 592 páginas para descifrar, analizar y explicar el sonido Pink Floyd, que transformó la historia de la música. * Un análisis en profundidad de las 179 canciones del grupo, grabadas primero con Syd Barrett y luego con David Gilmour. * Unas canciones publicadas entre 1967 y 2014 que muestran la pujanza de la formación británica, que, liberada de la influencia estadounidense, modeló una música poliédrica: psicodélica, espacial, sinfónica, balada acústica e incluso hard rock. Año 1966. Mientras los jóvenes vivían las horas más épicas y exultantes del Swinging London, un grupo causaba sensación: Syd Barrett, Roger Waters, Rick Wright y Nick Mason tocaban el blues rock como nadie. Se trataba de un blues rock psicodélico, alucinado. Unos meses más tarde, en 1967, grabaron sus primeros singles: "Arnold Layne"/"Candy And A Currant Bun" y "See Emily Play"/"Scarecrow" y luego, su primer álbum: The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn. Había comenzado la prodigiosa carrera de Pink Floyd. El estudio de las letras, la inmersión en el proceso creativo del grupo en el estudio de grabación, el detalle de la intervención de los productores y los ingenieros de sonido y los instrumentos utilizados: nada se ha dejado al azar al sumergirnos en el corazón de la música de Pink Floyd.

Led Zeppelin. La historia detras de sus 94 canciones
94 canciones en 608 páginas: un libro que vuelve a poner bajo los focos de la actualidad a uno de los grupos estrella de la historia del rock, cuyas melodías, ritmos y solos de guitarra han pervivido a lo largo de las décadas para inspirar y cautivar tanto en el presente como en el pasado. Nacido en el otoño de 1968 sobre los rescoldos aún humeantes de los Yardbirds, Led Zeppelin sobrevoló el mundo del rock durante toda la década de 1970. Y no solo eso, sino que también hizo realidad el sueño de toda una generación tras la separación traumática de los Beatles. Blues rock, folk rock, hard rock, rock prog…, la música del cuarteto presenta una diversidad de facetas. Escribió el futuro del rocknroll, ahondando sus raíces en el blues y las tradiciones ancestrales de las islas británicas, como la balada. Las letras, la música y los arreglos de las 94 canciones de la banda se analizan con todo detalle a partir de las entrevistas que les realizaron a los miembros del grupo durante las grabaciones de sus álbumes, pero también a partir de los testimonios de los productores e ingenieros de sonido que los acompañaron en su trayectoria musical. Un libro que abre la puerta de los estudios de grabación, desde los Olympic Sound Studios de Londres hasta los Polar Studios de Estocolmo, y revela la importancia y la diversidad de los instrumentos utilizados; es, además, un recopilatorio de anécdotas de lo más singulares que apasionarán a todos los adictos a Zeppelin.

Sikes, Pierce and Ward, Bunny Williams, Corey Damen Jenkins, and Redd Kaihoi.

Van Gogh and Britain
Fifty of Vincent van Gogh's celebrated paintings reveal the influences of British art and literature on his early career as well as his impact on British artists.

Vincent van Gogh, the postimpressionist painter, remains among the most influential figures in the history of Western art. His 871 oil-on-canvas works and numerous sketches shaped the development of contemporary painting, as his tumultuous and tragic personal life typified the idea of a tortured artist. While much has been written on van Gogh, there is little scholarship on his early twenties, a period in which his artistic identity took form in London, England.
Van Gogh and Britain follows the painter from his first exposure to British culture in the 1870s, when he lived in south London, to his influence on British art as he achieved iconic status in the 1950s. As a young art dealer in training, van Gogh wandered the streets of London, absorbing the work of the pre-Raphaelites, Shakespeare, and Charles Dickens, reporting happily to his brother Theo: "Things are going well for me here." This book reveals the British ideas, books, paintings, and prints that caught the unknown van Gogh's attention, in turn informing both his ideals and his practical investigations of a radical, egalitarian style. Even after moving to France, van Gogh's preoccupation with British art and literature remains visible in his dramatically original late works, including major pictures such as The Bedroom and Van Gogh's Chair.
British painters and collectors were among the first to respond to van Gogh's work when he briefly participated in the Paris art scene, but his full impact would arrive later in the twentieth century, when the artist became an embodiment of embattled human creativity, inspiring modern British painters from Walter Sickert to Francis Bacon.

Charlotte Moss Flowers
Renowned interior designer and tastemaker Charlotte Moss celebrates flowers and offers endless inspiration in their use as glorious additions to decorating, entertaining, and everyday living.

Charlotte Moss encourages readers to bring the garden indoors--with ideas for arranging flowers, selecting containers, and placing blossoms around the house. An inviting cluster of blooms on a guest room's bedside table, lavish floral displays for parties and holidays, single stems adding life to any corner of a room--Moss has been photographing her flower arrangements for over a decade. This book is a celebration of her artistry and a testament to flowers as part of day-to-day life.

From Moss's grander displays in the city to her more informal and breezy creations at her home in the country, as well as in the refined interiors of her clients, the visual result is a chronicle of the myriad ways flowers provide inspiration--indoors and out. Readers will be further motivated as Moss describes the contributions of past tastemakers: Gloria Vanderbilt for her ingenious use of floral patterns in her licensed products, Pauline de Rothschild for her fantastic tablescapes, Bunny Mellon for her profusive use of topiaries, Constance Spry for the use of inventive containers and for her groundbreaking artistry, and Lady Bird Johnson for her embrace of the simple, exquisite wildflower. With nature as her muse, Moss implores us to create the backdrop for a life well lived, imbuing every day with flair, beauty, and elegance.
