Showing results for "Evolution" in Entertainment & Celebrities

From humble beginnings in Middlesex, where money was scarce but dreams were encouraged, to the award-winning godfather of electronica, Gary Numan has seen it all. The first: a stratospheric rise to success quickly followed by a painful decline into near obscurity. The second: a 20-plus year renaissance catalysed by a date with a super-fan. (R)evolution is the rollercoaster rise and fall (and rise) of one man, several dozen synthesisers, multiple issues and two desperately different lives.

In Evolution of a Baby Boomer Joyce Fidler takes us on her journey as a record store owner and rock band singer who begins her adult years in the Bible belt where sex, drugs and rock & roll dominate her life. As she relocates to LaLaLand in her forties, she invites listeners to witness her unexpected transformation to a fruitful, productive citizen. Fidler's memoir traces the how and why of this metamorphosis including a divorce from a polyamorous marriage, separation from her teenaged children, with an eventual surrender to recovery from marijuana and alcohol addiction.
