In the late 1950s there was a skiffle craze in Great Britain. This folk music with a rock beat was the gateway into music for artists such as The Beatles, The Kinks, Van Morrison, and most other UK rock, pop, folk and blues musicians who were successful in the 1960s. This book contains the full lyrics and guitar chords for 50 songs that were common on the repertoires of amateur and professional skiffle groups back then. Songs made famous by the likes of The Vipers, Chas McDevitt, Lonnie Donegan, Ken Colyer, and the City Ramblers skiffle groups. Songs include: 'Rock Island Line'; 'Midnight Special'; 'Putting On The Style'; 'Maggie May'; 'Freight Train'; 'Don't You Rock Me Daddy-O'; 'Pick a Bale of Cotton' ... and many other classics. Each song is presented over a double page spread with chords above the lyrics. There is also instruction in how to strum the ukulele when playing skiffle songs and a valuable explanation of the 'three chord trick'. All profits from this book are donated to Save the Children.

According to Eric Clapton, John Mayer, and the late Stevie Ray Vaughn, Buddy Guy is the greatest blues guitarist of all time. An enormous influence on these musicians as well as Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, and Jeff Beck, he is the living embodiment of Chicago blues. Guy's epic story stands at the absolute nexus of modern blues. He came to Chicago from rural Louisiana in the fifties—the very moment when urban blues were electrifying our culture. He was a regular session player at Chess Records. Willie Dixon was his mentor. He was a sideman in the bands of Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf. He and Junior Wells formed a band of their own. In the sixties, he became a recording star in his own right. When I Left Home tells Guy's picaresque story in his own unique voice, that of a storyteller who remembers everything, including blues masters in their prime and the exploding, evolving culture of music that happened all around him.

During the late 1950s and early 1960s, after the shock of Elvis Presley and before the Beatles spearheaded the British Invasion, fourteen gifted young songwriters huddled in midtown Manhattan's legendary Brill Building and a warren of offices a bit farther uptown and composed some of the most beguiling and enduring entries in the Great American Songbook. Always Magic in the Air is the first thorough history of these renowned songwriters-tunesmiths who melded black, white, and Latino sounds, integrated audiences before America desegregated its schools, and brought a new social consciousness to pop music.
