Klappentext zu „Rocky Passages “
Anybody harbouring the sneaking suspicion that "we are what we hear" will surely feel at home in Neil Deane's highly-personalized account of how rock music moved in with him at the end of the Beatles' era and refused to move out again. It made anarchy-bound Liverpool of the 70s a veritable demi-paradise, helped him survive various challenges in pre- and post- 1989 Germany and even made light of new millennium crises and general mid-life paranoia. Lists pertaining to several facets of his collection of 600 CDs, reflections on the live concert experience and pithy yet revealing philosophizing about the pivotal role music plays in our lives all combine to celebrate a 40-year journey many music lovers will recognise from their own "rocky passages".
Autoren-Porträt von Neil Deane
Neil Deane - He studied German and French at Liverpool John Moores University (formerly Liverpool Polytechnic) from 1975 till 1979 and since then has worked in various educational contexts, most of the time in Germany. His first and most recent forays into writing were for German educational publishing houses; his present book is a new direction and an attempt to convey his love of music and the part it has played in his life. Plans for future works include a personal take on life in modern Germany. In his spare time he fervently follows the fate of Liverpool FC, reads avidly and is fascinated by history and travel. He pursues theseinterests, with the help of modern technology, in his current home in Essen in Germany's former industrial heartland.
