Jimi was certainly one of a kind. The man was a walking contradiction. Barely educated he never had even a single guitar lesson. He was wildly aggressive, sometimes even violent with his music – and yet as a person he was quiet, passive and ever polite. Hendrix spoke what he wanted to say through his music – off stage, among friends, he earned the nickname Gentleman Jim. In this unique audiobook on the unlikely life and times of one James Marshall Hendrix, who left us all too soon under very mysterious circumstances, you’ll find the very best of the man and his music via rare interviews with Jimi and those who knew him best. 

The Kama Sutra is an ancient Indian Sanskrit text on sexuality, eroticism and emotional fulfillment in life. It is neither exclusively nor predominantly a sex manual on sex positions, but written as a guide to the art of living well, the nature of love, finding a life partner, maintaining one’s love life, and other aspects pertaining to pleasure-oriented faculties of human life. The text is a mix of prose and poetry. The text acknowledges Vedic concepts, and lists desire, sexuality, and emotional fulfillment as one of the proper goals of life. Its chapters discuss methods for courtship, training in the arts to be socially engaging, finding a partner, flirting, maintaining power in a married life, when and how to commit adultery, sexual positions, and other topics. The majority of the book is about the philosophy and theory of love, what triggers desire, what sustains it, and how and when it is good or bad.

Recently Forbes magazine named John Lennon the ultimate, all time, iconic rockstar for the ages. While that’s certainly true John was even more than that: a dedicated peace politician, philosopher, early women’s advocate, proponent of yogic meditation, Hare Krishna and eastern philosophy, as well as his well-known anti-war efforts and timeless inspirational music – here is a man who made his brief life count! In this comprehensive compendium of the best of John Lennon.

In this original production, the real John Lennon is revealed through the insightful narration of Beatles historian Geoffrey Giuliano. Lennon was a complex man whose incredible body of work often obscured the sensitive, fragile man behind the music. Since his violent death in 1980, Lennon has become an almost fictional character; a hippie prince of peace, an idealized icon, a romanticized caricature. Along the way, the authentic John Lennon has been all but lost. Join the author in an in-depth, no-holds-barred look at the phenomenon of the Beatles and the often troubled Liverpool man behind it. Perfect for every serious fan, rock historian, critic, the media, as well as all university and school systems.
