Berlin, November 1939. Der erste Kriegswinter. Die Vergnügungslokale haben Hochkonjunktur. Tanzorchester von internationalem Niveau spielen täglich vor ausverkauften Häusern. Die Stadt ist das Mekka der deutschen Swing Musik. Mittendrin Kurt Dörflinger. Er spielt mit bekannten Bands im "Moka Efti" und in der "Imperator Diele". Rundfunk- und Schallplattenaufnahmen lassen nicht lange auf sich warten. Aber er ist immer noch ein unbekannter Musiker, der davon träumt, einen richtigen Schlager zu komponieren - eine Melodie, die man nie vergißt. Dann schreibt er das Lied seines Lebens, einen Welthit. Auf dem Höhepunkt des Ruhmes ruft ihn das Militär. Er zieht mit Instrumenten in den Krieg und spielt bis Kriegsende zur Unterhaltung der Soldaten. Dörflinger überlebt Todesmärsche und kommt in sowjetische Kriegsgefangenschaft. Er ist unermüdlich musikalisch tätig und hilft mit seiner Musik den Kameraden beim täglichen Überlebenskampf. Die wahren Erinnerungen eines Musikers aus einer unmenschlichen Zeit.

Brazil is a country rich in plant biodiversity, with its entire extension representing 20% of the world's number of species, a number that ranges from 350,000 to 500,000 plant species. From this wealth of species, various vegetables that have biological properties are known, through popular medicine, and are used as medicines in the form of teas, poultices, etc. even indiscriminately because there is no proof, in some situations, of such biological properties. Various parts of Anonna mucosa are used in folk medicine, and the biological effects observed vary according to the material used. Its leaves are indicated as diaphoretic, carminative, stomachic, antirheumatic and anthelmintic medication orally and can also be used as compresses or mouthwashes in the treatment of stomatitis, neuralgias and headaches, as well as in the form of a poultice on boils and ulcers to induce suppuration. A moistened leaf or bruised leaves, placed on the forehead and forehead, are used to induce sleep and relieve migraines. Because its leaves have an insecticidal effect, they are applied to wounds and ulcers to prevent attacks by insects and their larvae.

Carlo Gesualdo, Prince of Venosa (1560-1613), is equally celebrated as the composer of madrigals of great power and tortured complexity and as the murderer of his wife and her lover. His life and compositions are not unconnected. His neurotic sensibility found an ideal outlet in the Mannerist tendencies of late Renaissance music, and his works are the most extreme examples of these tendencies.

"Despite being hailed as one of the best guitarists of his era, George Harrison, particularly in his early decades, battled feelings of inferiority. He was often the butt of jokes from his bandmates owing to his lower-class background and, typically, was allowed to contribute only one or two songs per Beatles album out of the dozens he wrote. Now, acclaimed Beatles biographer Philip Norman examines Harrison through the lens of his numerous self-contradictions. Compared to songwriting luminaries John Lennon and Paul McCartney he was considered a minor talent, yet he composed such masterpieces as 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps' and 'Here Comes the Sun, ' and his solo debut album 'All Things Must Pass' achieved enormous success, appearing on many lists of the 100 best rock albums ever. Modern music critics place him in the pantheon of sixties guitar gods alongside Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Keith Richards, and Jimmy Page. Harrison railed against the material world yet wrote the first pop song complaining about income tax. He spent years lovingly restoring his Friar Park estate as a spiritual journey, but quickly mortgaged the property to help rescue a film project that would be widely banned as sacrilegious, Monty Python's Life of Brian. Harrison could be fiercely jealous, but not only did he stay friends with Eric Clapton when Clapton fell in love with Harrison's wife, Pattie Boyd, the two men grew even closer after Clapton walked away with her. Unprecedented in scope and filled with numerous color photos, this rich biography captures George Harrison at his most multi-faceted: devoted friend, loyal son, master guitar player, brilliant songwriter, cocaine addict, serial philanderer, global philanthropist, student of Indian mysticism, self-deprecating comedian, and, ultimately, iconic artist and man beloved by millions"--

The Isley Brothers' 3+3, dissects The Isleys' 50-year-old undisputed masterwork, an album that firmly established their music dynasty on a global scale, as well as heralding the boldest run of genre-defiant albums of their 65-year career. The 1973 watershed was their first multiplatinum release and is significant as a rare, crossover record by a Black act that struck a chord with urban, rock and pop consumers, despite the schisms between audiences due to bias-driven media and industry marketing.The book looks at the album from all angles: From The Isleys' early career to their influence on rock and rollers both Black and White, from the twists and turns of having national hits without national recognition, onto their decision to form T-Neck Records and the group's challenges navigating a music industry that racially codified music and hampered Black artists from universal acclaim and compensations--and finally a summation of the decades following The Isley's run and its ups and downs, with a fast-forward to where the group is now after 65 years.
