As a writer and musician, the ever-curious Jim Walsh has lived a life immersed in music, and it all makes its way into his columns and feature articles, interviews and reviews, including personal essays on life, love, music, family, death, and, yes, the manic-depressive highs and lows that come with being an obsessive music lover and listener. From Minneapolis?s own Prince to such far-flung acts as David Bowie, the Waterboys, Lucinda Williams, Parliament-Funkadelic, L7, the Rolling Stones, the Ramones, U2, Hank Williams, Britney Spears, Elvis Presley and Nirvana, Walsh?s work treats us to a chorus of the voices and sounds that have made the music scene over the past three decades. The big names are here, from Rosanne Cash to Bruce Springsteen to Bob Marley and Jackson Browne, but so are those a little shy of superstardom, like the Tin Star Sisters and Uncle Tupelo, Son Volt, the Gear Daddies, Semisonic, and The Belfast Cowboys.Popular musicUnited StatesAnecdotesMusic journalistsUnited StatesAnecdotesMinneapolis (Minn.)AnecdotesElectronic books.

Conclusion: Convergence of Entertainment and Politics in Contemporary China.This book advances research about China by providing an updated narrative of its entertainment life in the beginning of China's twenty-first century. As the rest of the world continues to pay keen attention to developments in China's politics, economy, and culture, the book provides insights on fascinating new developments in contemporary Chinese popular culture-including its reality television, family dramas centered around younger generations' life struggles, and social media. Furthermore, Entertainment and Politics in Contemporary China is the first book to apply the theoretical innovation of an aesthetic public sphere in examining closely the linkages between China's political life and activities in the country's culture sphere. Since concepts of public sphere and democracy largely took root from the West, Wu argues that this case study of China promises valuable insights about entertainment's role in the formation of citizenship and building of a civil society, which remains a site of great contention in Western theories and empirical efforts.East Asian Popular Culture,2634-5943CommunicationMotion picturesAsiaEthnologyAsiaCultureAsiaPolitics and governmentSocial mediaMedia and CommunicationAsian Film and TVAsian CultureAsian PoliticsSocial MediaCommunication.Motion picturesEthnologyCulture.AsiaPolitics and government.Social media.Media and Communication.Asian Film and TV.Asian Culture.Asian Politics.Social Media.335.4345Wu Jingsi Christinaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1057975BOOK9910255097403321Entertainment and Politics in Contemporary China2496243UNINA
