Another new comp: Love Story DVD + the latest news on our new title the Interactive Gibson Bible DVD + Book 24 June 2008  My aren't we good to you. The fine people at Start Productions have given us a copy of the highly acclaimed Love Story to give away to a lucky Jawbone site visitor/regular. We've watched the film and think it's brilliant. To win the DVD answer this simple question: Who was Love's first drummer? Please send your answer to Jon. The prize will be drawn at random on July 15th.  Talking of Love, Arthur Lee penned the introduction for the coveted Jawbone title A Riot On Sunset Strip: Rock 'n' Roll's Last Stand In Hollywood. If you haven't seen the book I advise you find a copy immediately, as it's the perfect reading companion for the Love Story movie. In the book, author Domenic Priore traces the colossal influence that Love and their ilk had on Hollywood in the mid-60s. The detailed historical research and fabulous pictures make this the ultimate chronicle of folk-rock, pop, garage, psychedelia and the wild effect it had on the city in the truly happenin' pre-hippy era. You can order the book from our site here.******************************************* I mentioned our new title the Interactive Gibson Guitar back in April. The DVD/book package is now available to buy now from Amazon and will be in shops from July 11th. As a taster here's an extract of Carl & Dave discussing and playing two tasty Firebirds. Remember: with our interactive series you're buying a wonderful DVD documentary -- featuring spellbinding guitars, expert opinion and truly professional playing -- and a fact filled book in one glorious package. It's the ideal companion to our earlier titles The Interactive Guitar Bible and The Interactive Fender Bible (both available from our Amazon store and in all good bookshops).  | About us JAWBONE was launched in 2007 by the team behind many best-selling Backbeat and Thunder Bay titles, including How To Write Songs On Guitar, Beatles Gear, Totally Guitar, and The Piano Handbook . In its first year, Jawbone published a run of acclaimed titles -- including Million Dollar Bash, Strange Brew, and Bowie In Berlin -- and launched a new series of interactive packages that combine practical handbooks with specially-filmed DVD features. As well as publishing its own books, Jawbone continues to produce Backbeat-branded books for Hal Leonard. You can now buy all of our books directly from this site either by going straight to our Amazon store or by clicking on the links on any of the book pages. It really couldn't be any easier. We can also be found on MySpace and YouTube. Previous posts November 2007 January 2008 March 2008 April 2008 May 2008 June 2008 August 2008 |
