Spinning The Record

Sex, Drugs, Rock Stars, Divas and Untold Tales from the Music Biz

By: Mark Yoshimoto Nemcoff

DIRTY LITTLE SECRETS… Sex, drugs, rock stars, divas, d-bags and previously untold stories about some of the biggest acts in music and the crazy things that have happened behind the scenes. What happens when someone gets murdered in your hotel while you’re on tour? How do you get backstage at a big rock concert? How much drugs were people in the music business really doing in the 70’s and 80’s? Which superstar artist rented out a whole supermarket after hours? Rock legend has it that one newly-minted superstar’s career was killed by a single shot — an sniper’s bullet fired through the lens of a camera and broadcast to an eagerly awaiting public through the magic of music video and the television channel that had become the most powerful pop culture engine in modern history. Finally, the truth can be told about what really happened… and the story is pretty hilarious. From Mark Yoshimoto Nemcoff, author of the acclaimed bestseller Where’s My F*cking Latte? (And Other Stories About Being an Assistant in Hollywood) - featured on TV’s hit ACCESS HOLLYWOOD and E! Entertainment’s SECRET SOCIETIES OF HOLLYWOOD - comes a revealing look at the sometimes shocking, but always entertaining world of popular music, rock stars and the music business as told by the people who have lived it. SPINNING THE RECORD will take you behind-the-scenes in a world few get to see up close and personal like this. If you’ve always wanted a backstage pass, now’s your chance to hear about what really happens when the lights go down. Published as a series of blind items -- No names are named and all sources kept confidential -- but can you guess who’s who?

Fatal Sunset

Deadly Vacations

By: Mark Yoshimoto Nemcoff

No one ever believes their dream vacation can instantly turn into a tragic nightmare...until it's too late. Some tourists vanish without a trace. Over 170 people have disappeared from cruise ships around the world since 1995, several under very suspicious circumstances. Others have their lives senselessly stolen, like the 8-year old boy sucked into an unprotected pool drain at a major resort, leaving his mother crying out his name as security staff held her at gunpoint. Or 22-year old Nolan Webster, denied proper medical care after being pulled unconscious from a Cancun resort pool, only to have his dead body left in plain view for hours and his parents billed for his room. Vacations are meant to be joyous and fun. Sometimes terrible things happen unexpectedly. A parasailing newlywed plummets hundreds of feet to her death on the last day of her honeymoon when her harness snaps in mid-air. Hikers make a fatal plunge on an improperly-marked Kauai ciffside trail. And of course, there's every mother's nightmare: the disappearance of Natalee Holloway while on a high school graduation trip to Aruba with members of her senior class. FATAL SUNSET, the latest expose from award-winning and bestselling author Mark Yoshimoto Nemcoff is not meant to do for vacations what "Jaws" did for beaches. "I'm not trying to scare you from going on a trip. I'm revealing these hidden true stories in order to make sure you understand what danger lurks in between the sun and sand and that perfect getaway," explains Nemcoff, the writer behind Kindle bestsellers "The Death of Osama Bin Laden" and "Where's My F*cking Latte?," an insiders look at the world of Hollywood celebrity assistants that was not only featured on Access Hollywood but has spent over four years straight at the top of Amazon's top-selling chart in the categories of "Television" and "Movies." "Sometimes travelers put themselves into situations beyond their limitations or worse, beyond their control," says Nemcoff. "People on vacation tend to engage in riskier activities than they are normally used to. Sometimes things can instantly turn deadly because you made a bad decision or were in the wrong place at the wrong time." In addition to FATAL SUNSET's shocking stories of deadly shark attacks, drownings, suspicious encounters, unfortunate accidents and murder, there is one part of the book that still haunts Nemcoff. "I interviewed Nolan Webster's mom, Maureen. In the book she explains what it was like to get that terrible phone call about her son's death. It's something I think about every day." "There's one piece of advice I've learned researching this book," tells Nemcoff. "Dare to be aware.

Maui Confidential

The Essential Vacation Guide (Enhanced with Map Links)

By: Mark Yoshimoto Nemcoff

YOUR PERSONAL VACATION GUIDE TO MAUI... The best activities... The best places to eat... The best beaches... The island's best mai tai... And how to find where you can swim with sea turtles for free. Plus, photos and map links to help you find what you're looking for! Also, what to avoid so you don't waste your time and money. At the Maui airport there are stands and kiosks full of free-to-take guides promising you the hundred or so best things to do on the island. Yes, they are chock full of ideas, but all of those guides are full of ads, sponsored listings and articles paid for by the advertisers. You're not getting unbiased information. That is exactly why I wrote this book. As a frequent visitor to Maui, I wanted to share my experiences as a tourist on one of the most beautiful islands on this planet and give you my recommendations how to make your vacation even more amazing. If this is your first trip to Maui, and especially if you are planning to spend a lot of time on the west coast of the island near Lahaina, Napili and Kapalua, you'll really appreciate these recommendations. Plus, since this is the age of convenience, I included map links to all the best stuff. Not sure what to do, where to go? Let me be your tour guide.

Tearing Down the Wall: The Contemporary Guide to Decoding Pink Floyd - The Wall One Brick at a Time

By: Mark Yoshimoto Nemcoff

SECRETS OF THE WALL REVEALED! Imagine dusting off a beloved album, comfortable as an old pair of jeans, and one day discovering that it goes much deeper down the rabbit hole than you ever envisioned. The thematic intention of every note...The nuance behind every veiled reference...Until you finally recognize that hidden deep inside is a distinctly powerful message you never knew was there. It's like discovering buried treasure within the walls of your own backyard. Seen by some as merely as story about how someone disintegrates when they become isolated, or how we, as a society, disintegrate when isolated from one another, Roger Waters' semi-autobiographical rock opera about a burned out rock star who suffers a dark night of the soul while trying to examine his unhappiness - and along the way is haunted by his unhappy memories of his domineering mother, abusive schoolteacher and distant wife - is a deliberate gape down dark, uncomfortable corridors of the soul, searching for that wounded child within; a work that uses complex narrative structures to express typical Modernist concerns such as the shattering of consciousness and the decay of modern society. Brilliantly crafted into the album's message and production are elements of something bigger: a philosophy about the meaning of human existence that tread on the mental real estate owned by giants like Freud, Sartre, Camus, Kafka, Orwell and Kubrick, among others. Without being too obvious, some of these tiny, yet bare glimpses into existentialism are so deeply woven into the framework of The Wall that they remain mostly subliminal, yet there are few who listen to this work and don't feel it resonate within. The Wall, originally released in November of 1979, is a remarkable and thematically-rich canvas made powerful not only by how deeply it draws upon some very essential human struggles with anguish, abandonment and despair, but also the crafty way it ultimately reveals itself as a philosophical treatise about our interpersonal relationships with others. Think you know what Pink Floyd - The Wall is all about? What if I told you at the very least it's a lot more than you may have previously imagined. PRAISE FOR TEARING DOWN THE WALL "Smart, sharp, insightful and profound..." - Blake Morgan, President ECR Music Group "The most complete study of any album I've ever read. Tearing Down The Wall is absolutely forensic!" - Mike Yusi (UC Radio)
