Krátky popis
'A wonderfully original take on a Rock and Roll autobiography' Paul
McCartney'An inimitable Rock 'n' Roll life told as boldly as it was
lived' Bruce SpringsteenWhat story begins in a bedroom in suburban
New Jersey in the early '60s, unfolds on some of the country's
largest stages, and then ranges across the globe, demonstrating
over and over again how Rock and Roll has the power to change the
world for the better? This story. The first true heartbeat of
UNREQUITED INFATUATIONS is the moment when Stevie Van Zandt trades
in his devotion to the Baptist religion for an obsession with Rock
and Roll. Groups like the Beatles and the Rolling Stones created
new ideas of community, creative risk, and principled
rebellion.They changed him forever. While still a teenager, he met
Bruce Springsteen, a like-minded outcast/true believer who became
one of his most important friends and bandmates. As Miami Steve,
Van Zandt anchored the E Street Band as they conquered the Rock and
Roll world.And then, in the early '80s, Van Zandt stepped away from
E Street to embark on his own odyssey. He refashioned himself as
Little Steven, a political songwriter and performer, fell in love
with Maureen Santoro who greatly expanded his artistic palette, and
visited the world's hot spots as an artist/journalist to not just
better understand them, but to help change them. Most famously, he
masterminded the recording of ",Sun City,", an anti-apartheid
anthem that sped the demise of South Africa's institutionalized
racism and helped get Nelson Mandela out of prison.By the '90s, Van
Zandt had lived at least two lives-one as a mainstream rocker, one
as a hardcore activist. It was time for a third. David Chase
invited Van Zandt to be a part of his new television show, the
Sopranos-as Silvio Dante, he was the unconditionally loyal
consiglieri who sat at the right hand of Tony Soprano (a
relationship that oddly mirrored his real-life relationship with
Bruce Springsteen).Underlying all of Van Zandt's various
incarnations was a devotion to preserving the centrality of the
arts, especially the endangered species of Rock. In the
twenty-first century, Van Zandt founded a groundbreaking radio show
(Underground Garage), a fiercely independent record label (Wicked
Cool), and developed a curriculum to teach students of all ages
through the medium of music history. He also rejoined the E Street
Band for what has now been a twenty-year victory lap.UNREQUITED
INFATUATIONS chronicles the twists and turns of Stevie Van Zandt's
always surprising life. It is more than just the testimony of a
globe-trotting nomad, more than the story of a groundbreaking
activist, more than the odyssey of a spiritual seeker, and more
than a master class in rock and roll (not to mention a dozen other
crafts). It's the best book of its kind because it's the only book
of its kind.
