Add to basketNo Binding. Condition: Fine. A two-page letter from a 16-year old fan from Columbia, South Carolina, to Brian Jones, Founder of The Rolling Stones, posted on 30 June 1964. See the transcript below for the full text of her letter which extolls the band for being 'the sexiest English group'. The letter is accompanied by a small em…pty envelope, also addressed to 'Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones', perhaps the envelope she was hoping Jones would use for a reply. Letter in very fine condition, envelope is torn down one side, with what looks a cigarette burn to the front (quite possibly from one of Jones' smokes). The letter was read and kept by Brian Jones, and was left in a metal trunk in the attic of his girlfriend's (Linda Lawrence) house on Loddon Bridge Road, Woodley, Reading, Berkshire in the UK. With full provenance. See the included photos of Brian Jones' trunk, the letter of authenticity from Tracks Ltd and also a shot of all the letters stuffed into the trunk and arranged by myself. Kept from the sunlight, the letters all share a kind of musty attic smell, but are entirely fresh and bright. For more background detail on these letters, Google 'Daily Mail', 'letters' and 'Brian Jones' for a newspaper article on the subject. The letter is significant as it belonged to and was kept by Brian Jones, who famously received the lion's share of fan mail - especially from female fans - as noted in the 2023 documentary 'The Stones and Brian Jones' (directed by Nick Broomfield). It was one of several sources of tension within the group that eventually forced Jones from the band in June 1969; he tragically died the following month, drowning in his swimming pool. The letter is also important as it dates from 1964, the first year of The British Invasion (of British music into the United States), the first year that the Rolling Stones and The Beatles set foot in the US, causing a huge sea-change in music there. The wording of the letter is as follows: 'Dear Brian, When I saw you on Hollywood Palace I thought you were gear and have thought that ever since I love the songs you sing and so far my favourite is 'not fade away'. To me, you are the sexiest English group and I love you for being sexy. The magazine I have says your birthday is February 28 1944. Is this the correct date? Are you really trying to quit smoking? If so, I hope you succeed. That's about all I know about you. Please write and tell me all about yourself. Is there a better address to write to you? This is the only one I could find. Are you really as cute as in person as you are on T.V. (telly)? Please send me a picture of you personally autographed and please answer this letter. It would kill me if you didn't answer it. I would hate to die because then I wouldn't be able to hear The Stones sing. I am sixteen years old and I am crazy also about the Beatles. Please write. Love you. ' Envelope addressed to: Brian Jones PERSONAL 93-97 Regent St London W1, England. Signed by Author(s).

Add to basketNo Binding. Condition: Fine. A two-page letter from a young fan from Pinner in Middlesex in the United Kingdom to Brian Jones, founder of the Rolling Stones in May 1964, expressing her humungous disappointment that Jones failed to show for the Rolling Stones gig at Colston Hall, Bristol three days earlier, after she drove all th…e way with friends from Pinner in London to Bristol (some 115 miles) just to see him. Even more tragically, Jones was present for the second show. She describes driving back to London, on the lookout for Jones' broken down car. The envelope is postmarked 13 May 1964. As Nico Zentgraf notes in his expertly-chronicled 'The Rolling Stones Database', Jones was absent from the first show on 10th May. 640510A 10th May: Bristol, Colston Hall (1st show) - without Brian Jones 640510B 10th May: Bristol, Colston Hall (2nd show) The letter was read and kept by Brian Jones, and left in a metal trunk in the attic of his girlfriend's (Linda Lawrence) house on Loddon Bridge Road, Woodley, Reading, Berkshire in the UK. All of the letters (over 1000) in the trunk are from 1964, including this card. With full provenance. See the attached photos of Brian Jones' trunk, the letter of authenticity from Tracks Ltd and also a shot of all the letters stuffed into the trunk and arranged by me. For more details, Google the words 'Daily Mail', 'Brian Jones' and 'letters' for a newspaper article on this collection of fan mail. The letter is significant as it belonged to and was kept by Brian Jones, who famously received the lion's share of fan mail - especially from female fans - as noted in the 2023 documentary 'The Stones and Brian Jones' (directed by Nick Broomfield). It was one of several sources of tension within the group that eventually forced Jones from the band in June 1969; he died the following month. The letter is also important as it dates from 1964, the first year of The British Invasion (of British music into the United States), the first year that the Rolling Stones and The Beatles set foot in the US, causing a huge sea-change in music there. Letter in fine condition; envelope missing flap on verso, otherwise fine. The wording of the letter is as follows: 'PERSONAL TO BRIAN JONES, Tel HAT 4926 'Dear Brian, IT'S NOT THE SAME WITH ONLY 4 STONES!!! I am so disappointed, because we motored all the way to Bristol (Colston Hall) just to see YOU, and then when the Stones came on stage, you weren't even there. Well Brian, I honestly hope that you weren't ill or anything like that. But if it is just that you were late, and turned up for the second performance, then you must realise how heartbroken I am. How awful! The Rolling Stones minus Brian. Of course, I enjoyed the show, but it just wasn't the same without you. And we then had to drive all the way back to London, thoroughly disheartened, and until it got too dark to see, I was looking for a two-ton Hawk with a flat tyre or breakdown - but no luck! We didn't get home until midnight. Incidentally, to prove what good fans we are, we have bought two copies of your fabulous L.P.! My mum says this finally proves she is completely mad. I know you are terribly busy, but PLEASE PLEASE try to find time to write and tell me if you are ill or not, because I'm dreadfully worried. I have already written several times to you. An ever faithful fan XXXXXX' (name removed for confidentiality) Envelope addressed to: PERSONAL TO Brian Jones C/O Rolling Stones Fan Club 93-97 Regent Street London W1. Signed by Author(s).

Zustand: Von sehr guter Erhaltung. Wie ungelesen. Keine Remittende / Condition: In very good condition. As if unread. No reissue. - An outspoken memoir by a much-celebrated Indian filmmaker. ?I am a filmmaker by accident and an author by compulsion,? claims Mrinal Sen, who became part of the great triumvirate of Bengali cinema?along with Satyajit Ray and Ritwik Ghatak?in the 1950s and ?60s when he founded the rebellious Indian New Wave. Throughout his career, he kept that fire of protest burning, his acute political awareness and left-wing orientation spurring his creativity. Over decades, the themes that pervaded his cinema mirrored the spectrum of human suffering and experience, and in turn crystallized the anger of a restive mind against social injustice, economic deprivation, and communal divide. In this memoir, a celebrated ambassador of Indian cinema on the global stage, for whom cinema became a lexicon that gave voice to the times, reflects on encounters with the legends of the world of images as well as his inspirations and obsessions?not least among them, the city of Calcutta. Always Being Born is a fascinating memoir of a great artist and a buoyant social commentator who continued to confront, fight, and survive on the very challenges that propelled him to look beyond and dream.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 204 pages. Published in 2004. Retrospective collection of essays on music. Now considered a contemporary classic. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small an…d limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents John Luther Adams' "Winter Music: Composing The North". Reflections from Fairbanks, Alaska, where Adams lives and creates a unique musical world grounded in the elemental landscapes and indigenous cultures of the North. "Poetic and inspirational, delves into the environmental and cultural awareness that creates his reflective, almost spiritual, approach to music. The accompanying Audio CD includes two previously unrecorded works. Adams' music explores natural phenomena, from the songs of birds to the complex nature of chaos, fractal geometry, and elemental noise. Explores 'that region between place and culture, between environment and imagination', reflecting a philosophy of deep awareness that makes him one of the most original composers working today" (Publisher's blurb). "He sees art as invigorating, resonant, relevant. And, a welcome surprise, civic" (Barry Lopez). An absolute "must-have" title for John Luther Adams collectors. This copy is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed, dated, and inscribed in black ink-pen on the front free endpaper by the composer/author: "For Susan Berresford, with gratitude and warm wishes, John Luther Adams 11.VI.11". It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. The recipient, Susan Vail Berresford, who is named, was the President of the Ford Foundation from 1996-2007, supporting, among other worthy causes, Adams and his music. This title is a great book. This is the only such signed, dated, and inscribed copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare signed copy thus. Winner of the Grammy Award and the Pulitzer Prize for Music in 2014 for "Become Ocean". One of the greatest composers of our time. A fine copy.
