The Eternal Legend Of The People's Princess Diana

'Carry out a random act of kindness, with no expectation of reward, safe in the knowledge that one day someone might do the same for you...Only do what your heart tells you. I don't go by the rule book... I lead from the heart, not the head.' PRINCESS DIANA, Diana, Princess of Wales, was born July 1, 1961 and was perhaps the most beloved of the British royal family. Diana grew up in Park House, situated on the Sandringham estate, and was educated in England and Switzerland. Diana came to prominence in February 1981 upon her engagement to Prince Charles. The marriage produced two sons, princes William and Harry, who were then respectively second and third in the line of succession to the British throne. Diana was involved with dozens of charities and also raised awareness and advocated ways to help people affected with HIV/AIDS. As we all know Princess Diana died in a horrific car crash in a Paris tunnel on August 31, 1997. She left us that day - but never left our hearts and memory. This is her story in her own words.

Calypso to Collapso; The Resurrection of Vivian Stanshall

Vivian Stanshall was the quintessential pop hero of the 60s, 70s and 80s. Viv shot to fame in 1968 in the BONZO DOG DOO-DAH BAND, but as many listeners of the John Peel Show are aware, his tales of the upper-class Rawlinsons and Maynards were the bees knees for anyone with a warped sense of humour. Born Victor Anthony Stanshall, 21 March 1943, Shillingford, Oxfordshire, his post-WWII family settled in the coastal town of Leigh-on-Sea, in Essex. From bingo-caller to painting fairground attractions (and a spell in the merchant navy), Stanshall enrolled at London’s Central School of Art and Design. It was there in September 1962, he met Roger Ruskin Spear, Rodney Slater and Neil Innes (the latter attended nearby Goldsmiths College) and, with other equally unorthodox musicians, formed The BONZO DOG DOO-DAH BAND. They appeared in the Beatles ' Mystery Tour' movie in 1967, to an off-kilter Top 10 hit with `I’m The Urban Spaceman’ a year later, As the BONZO DOGS decided to split in early 1970 (after four LPs: `Gorilla’, `The Doughnut In Granny’s Greenhouse’, `Tadpoles’ and `Keynsham’), it gave an opportunity for Viv to explore his inner-characters on a few 45s. As contractual duties led Viv back to the BONZOS to 1972’s 'Let’s Make Up And Be Friendly’ – showcasing the sophisticated, spoken-wordsmith’s introduction to Sir Henry, via the 9-minute `Rawlinson End’. Probably thinking that young Mike Oldfield’s titanic `Tubular Bells’ would never be the success it became, Stanshall’s MC-sonic word-play would be an essential ingredient to the final minutes of side one. He never got paid. Having divorced first wife in 1975, he subsequently settled down with American writer Pamela `Ki’ Longfellow in their houseboat (the Searchlight). Viv also deposited a few tales of his comic characters from Sir Henry for John Peel’s Radio 1 show, and it was time to piece it all together in the adventures of 'Sir Henry At Rawlinson's End'.

Revolver: The Secret History of the Beatles

30 years after their acrimonious split, the Beatles continue to be the most influential and best-loved band the world has ever seen. Yet despite all that has been written about them, few have managed to get behind the public facade of the Fab Four and write the truth about the world's most popular band. No one knows more about their secret world than Geoffrey Giuliano. For the first time Geoffrey has brought together exclusive interviews with the band's inner circle to create the most vivid and sensational portrait of the band ever published. From the sexual abuse suffered by John Lennon at the hands of his uncle as a boy, to Paul McCartney's stormy relationship with his family. From the serial adultery of band members with each other's wives, to the fearsome addictions and personal demons that pursued each member after the Beatles broke up. This is a unique and essential portrait of the band who shook the world like no other. It will change the way we see the Beatles forever.
