Zur Erinnerung an John Mayall - der britischen Blues Legende! John Mayalls zahllose Bands wurden zur legendären Blues-Schule und Talentschmiede, in der sich über 130 Musiker ihre Sporen verdient haben, darunter etliche spätere Weltstars wie Eric Clapton, Peter Green, Jack Bruce, Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Mick Taylor oder Jon Hiseman. Top-Bands wie Cream, Fleetwood Mac oder Colosseum wären ohne ihn nie zusammengekommen. Über 60 Jahren war Bluespionier und Talentscout John Mayall aktiv im Dienste des Blues. Mit 81 Jahren noch kein bisschen müde, mit einem Leistungsausweis von nicht weniger als 86 LPs und CDs und mit über 5000 weltweit gespielten Live-Shows gehört Mayall zu den einflussreichsten und dauerhaftesten Protagonisten der internationalen Blues- und Rockszene. 1966 kam das Album "Blues Breakers With Eric Clapton" heraus, auf dem Mayall mit einer Mischung aus gefühlvollem Rock und kraftvollem, gitarrengetriebenem US-Blues faszinierte. Das Album war ein Hit und machte Clapton zum Star. Sein letztes Album "The Sun is Shining Down" kam 2022 heraus. Er verstarb am 22. Juli 2024 im Alter von 90 Jahren in Los Angeles, Kalifornien. Höchste Zeit, dass endlich eine ausführliche Biografie über den Godfather of British Blues erscheint, ein Buch, das nicht nur sein Leben und seine gesamte Karriere durchleuchtet, sondern darüber hinaus einen vertieften Einblick in die Laufbahnen seiner zahllosen Mitmusiker liefert. Selbst hartgesottene Blues-Fans finden hier eine Menge bisher unbekannter Informationen, verfasst vom langjährigen Mayall-Experten und Blues-Kenner Dinu Logoz, selber Pionier der ersten Stunde des Schweizer Blues.

A masterfully falsified history of the late Soviet developments
Format: Paperback
This book represents academic propaganda, providing some interesting insights into important events. Some details are true, but some crucial details are omitted. It represents a sanitized version of Russia's modern history. It provides misleading information about Gorbachev's constitutional reforms, aimed at partitioning of 15 republics into 53 confederation entities. Originally, the targeted republics were Kazakhstan, Moldova, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Ukraine, etc. Those conflicts were manufactured by the Soviet center to discredit "nationalists," facilitate the partition of national republics, and grant Moscow right to protect ethnic minorities. According to Starovoitova, Bakatin, Yakovlev, and a few other primary sources, the Soviet security services led special operations in the Caucasus and Central Asia to provoke those conflicts. Zubok avoids citing those parts. Using the imperial approach of "divide and rule," Moscow attempted to become a peacekeeper in the conflicts it created between different ethnicity. In addition to fragmenting the republics with well-developed national identities, Gorbachev's new constitution would revoke their right to leave the USSR, written in Lenin's 1922 Constitution (Shakhnazarov, 1992). Zubok does not explain any of it. His book is an effort to protect the truth and conceal facts with Russian myths and lies about nationalism (also referred to as Nazism). Notably, Zubok does not recognize non-Russian republics and describes them as "territories." He mentions Pitsunda as a resort on the Black Sea, not as Georgia. For lying about the genocidal ethnic cleansing conducted by the Russian military against the Georgian population of Abkhazia, Zubok owes apology to the victims of conflicts and wars initiated by Gorbachev and carried on by Yeltsin. The story about "the hardliners coup against Gorbachev" is also a big fat lie. American scholars, Amy Knight, John Dunlop, and William Odom provide more accurate insights. For Russian sources, read Marshal Shaposhnikov or Aleksandr Lebed's memoirs (1995) and listen to Gennady Yanaev's interview (2009). According to Mitrokhin archives (original), the August 1991 coup was an active measure the KGB developed per Gorbachev's request. The so-called coup was part of Gorbachev's constitutional reform, which would lead to the removal of unfriendly leaders (including Yeltsin) from the republics. It failed because the Soviet military brass, foremost Pavel Grachev, had defected to Yeltsin earlier in 1991. When you read a book by a seasoned Russian propagandist, like Zubok or Trenin, take it with a grain of salt, because it will always contain a mix of lies and truth.

An important work and worth the time.
Format: Hardcover
Real scholarship addressing difficult but important topics in history, economic history, and development. What every economist should read to think much more deeply about how institutions, culture, and human agency interact. At the same time, scholars like the three co-authors demonstrate that there still remains the possibility of doing work that isn’t larded with ideological or activist posturing. Highly recommended.
