    Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The inspiring and poetic memoir of the young New Wave musician whose improbable Cold War heroics opened the clandestine world of Leningrad punk and rock to the West.Joanna Stingray was only 23 years old when she first set foot in the USSR and started meeting now-legendary musicians and artists of the Soviet underground like Boris Grebenshchikov, Sergei Kuryokhin, and Viktor Tsoi. By 1985, she was writing and recording with them, and smuggling their music to the West in order to produce the groundbreaking album Red Wave: 4 Underground Bands from the USSR. This is her testimony of youthful fortitude and rebellion, her love story, and proof of the power of music and youth culture over stagnancy and oppression. The book, written with her singer/songwriter daughter, Madison, includes Stingray's extensive collection of photographs, artworks, and interviews with the musicians. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

    Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2010 im Fachbereich Russistik / Slavistik, Note: 1,0, Ruhr-Universität Bochum (Lotman-Institut), Veranstaltung: Sozialistische Helden und Ungeheuer, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In der Geschichte jedes Landes gibt es 'einige in politisch-sozialer Hinsicht herausragende Gestalten, die besondere Leistungen [.] vollbracht haben'. Die Sowjetunion war eine Epoche dieser Gestalten, der Helden. Dabei wurden viele von ihnen künstlich zu solchen stilisiert oder gar erfunden; die Heldenverehrung war Ergebnis eines manipulativen Systems. Die 1980er Jahre brachten diese jahrzehntelang bestehende Werteordnung ins Schwanken. Die sozialistischen Helden erwiesen sich als ungeeignet für die gesellschaftliche Umbruchstimmung, der Bedarf an neuen war somit groß. Insbesondere der jüngeren Generation mit ihrem Verlangen nach dem Neuen, dem Alternativen mangelte es an Repräsentation. In den letzten Jahren entstand aus diesem nonkonformistischem Drang eine Subkultur nach westlichem Vorbild - die Rock-Szene, 'ein Massenphänomen, das es nicht geben durfte'. Bereits ihre ersten Protagonisten, die den Mut zur Abweichung vom sozialistischen Kurs hatten, wurden mit Begeisterung zu Alternativ-Helden von gewisser politischer Bedeutung erhoben. Das vielleicht spektakulärste Beispiel eines solchen demokratisch stilisierten Helden war der Frontmann der Band 'Kino' Viktor Coj - ' '.Die vorliegende Arbeit ist ein Versuch, sich dem Phänomen des Heldenkults Cojs zu nähern. Im Kapitel 1 werden die Rahmenbedingungen für die Entstehung der Rock-Szene und der Band Cojs innerhalb dieser Subkultur dargestellt. Kapitel 2 geht auf die wichtigsten Faktoren der Popularität und der (Selbst-)Stilisierung des Sängers. Im dritten Kapitel werden schließlich Beispiele die Mythisierung seiner Biographie nach dem Tod skizziert.

    Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - A memoir by an American who almost single-handedly introduced Soviet rock to the free world, [.] Stingray, who wrote this memoir with her daughter, Madison, nicely captures her daring amid an atmosphere of liberation and fear, and she's a study in moxie and enthusiasm.Kirkus ReviewsAs one of the first American musicians to break through the Soviet scene, and one of the few women to be seen as an equal amongst Leningrad's pantheon of rock superstars, Stingray's perspective on the development of late Soviet rock is probably the single most important source for those who want a birds-eye view of late Soviet youth culture, and Stingray's stories are as entertaining as they are relevant and illuminating. Alexander Herbert, author of What About Tomorrow : An Oral History of Russian Punk from the Soviet Era to Pussy RiotWild and vivid a rollicking memoir of romance and rock 'n' roll in an era of upheaval and transition. From Los Angeles to Leningrad and back again, Joanna's story is borne along by her infectious, headlong enthusiasm. It's quite a ride. Patrick Radden Keefe, creator of the Wind of Change podcast and author of Say Nothing: A True Story of Murder and Memory in Northern IrelandThe history of Russian rock music could have been very different without Joanna Stingray. Joanna was friends with rock musicians, recorded songs with them, shot their videos and brought them clothes and instruments from the West. Her video footage, capturing young icons of Russian rock like Viktor Tsoi, Sergei Kuryokhin, Timur Novikov and Boris Grebenshchikov, is rare evidence of the golden era of the Soviet underground. The Moscow TimesRed Wave is a warm and conversational autobiography about a lost world, peopled with courageous artists risking their freedom for the ideas of expression, art, and rock 'n' roll. [.] We root for her and her friends to overcome bureaucracy, oppression, isolation, deprivation, and the heavy footsteps of the KGB. [.] In a readable and personable way, Red Wave helps shine some light into this remarkable corner of rock history. Tim Sommer, GuernicaJoanna Stingray's appearance in St. Petersburg in the early 1980s must have been God's response to our unconscious prayers. Her naive bravery, curiosity and generosity created a kind of a lifeline for us rockers: she brought in things we needed to play our music, and took out not only our recordings but the very message of our existence. Had it not been for her and her Red Wave, it would have taken Aquarium many more years to have official records on Melodiya and Kino to start touring Europe. This fearless maiden broke through the siege that looked hopelessly unbreakable. She threw a life-saver into our waters and she changed everything. No matter how many times we thank her it's never enough. Boris Grebenshchikov (Aquarium), 2018.
