SUMMARY:The Long Play Sessions: Stephanie Phillips (Big Joanie): In Conversation & Book Signing
DESCRIPTION:We Were Here: A History of Black People and Alternative Music\n\n\n\nStephanie Phillips joins The Long Play Sessions and discusses We Were Here as she rewrites the story of rock ’n’ roll and alternative music\, placing Black artists at the heart of a history they’ve always helped shape. \n\nFrom pioneering figures such as Sister Rosetta Tharpe\, Little Richard\, Jimi Hendrix\, Tina Turner\, Betty Davis\, Poly Styrene and Bad Brains to today’s trailblazing musicians\, Stephanie Phillips reveals the profound influence of Black creativity on alternative music across nearly a century.\n\n\n\nExploring why Black artists have continued to embrace alternative music despite being marginalised by the mainstream industry\, Phillips makes a compelling case that there is no alternative music without Black innovation. Looking ahead\, she celebrates a new generation of Gen Z musicians redefining the possibilities of punk\, metal\, hardcore and indie\, and shaping the future of the genre.

SUMMARY:The Long Play Sessions | Kevin Dettmar: In Conversation & Book Signing with Jon King (Gang Of Four)
DESCRIPTION:Punk In Fifty Pieces with Kevin Dettmar and special guest Jon King (Gang of Four)\n\n\n\nFifty years after punk exploded into public consciousness\, Punk in 50 Pieces revisits the songs\, artists and moments that transformed popular music forever.\n\n\n\nKevin Dettmar joins The Long Play Sessions and in his engaging new book\, explores 50 defining tracks that chart punk’s emergence and its evolution into post-punk and new wave. Beginning with the Sex Pistols’ “Anarchy in the U.K.”\, he traces the revolutionary impact of artists including Patti Smith\, The Ramones\, Iggy Pop\, Joy Division\, Siouxsie and the Banshees\, Talking Heads\, Blondie\, Devo\, The Clash\, Public Image Ltd\, X-Ray Spex\, The Cure\, The B-52s\, The Go-Go’s and many more.\n\n\n\nBoth an accessible introduction and a richly informed cultural history\, Punk in 50 Pieces examines how a five-year burst of creativity reshaped rock music and left an enduring influence on popular culture. Combining insightful criticism with an expertly curated soundtrack\, it stands alongside classic works such as Please Kill Me\, Lipstick Traces\, Rip It Up and Start Again and England’s Dreaming as an essential exploration of one of music’s most influential movements.\n\n\n\nKevin Dettmar is the author of Is Rock Dead? and the acclaimed 33⅓ volume on Gang of Four’s Entertainment!. He is also co-editor of Shake It Up: Great American Writing on Rock and Pop from Elvis to Jay-Z and editor of The Cambridge Companion to Bob Dylan.
