Synopsis:
Defining the difference between "noise" and "music" and between "music" and "magic", this book tells the story of the author's quest to unlock the secrets of the drum, the instrument that has, since ancient times, transported humanity to the "edge of music" and beyond.
About the Author: Mickey Hart's efforts to document ancient and increasingly rare rhythmic traditions include his production for Rykodisc of The World, a series of unique reocrdings of music from around the world. He also serves on the board of the Smithsonian Institution's Folkway Records. Jay Stevens is the author of Storming Heaven: LSD and the American Dream.
