Download or read book The Longest Cocktail Party written by Richard DiLello and published by Alfred Music. This book was released on 2014-11-05 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Apple Records was a noble experiment created in the spirit of the 1960s by four musicians who came to represent everything that was best about those tumultuous, experimental, and liberating times. The Beatles started out with the greatest of intentions, but reality soon got in the way. Much has been written about this period in the history of The Beatles' evolution and dissolution---some of it true, some of it wildly exaggerated, but not much of it first-hand. The Longest Cocktail Party is a rare exception. Written by Richard DiLello, who served as Apple Record's "House Hippie" from 1968 to 1970, this unusual first-hand glimpse into The Beatles' empire humorously chronicles the stranger-than-life stories that were to become legendary, including visits by the Hell's Angels and endless tales of celebrity antics. Alfred Music is proud to offer this latest edition, which features a new and insightful foreword by the author. Originally published by Playboy Press in 1972, The Longest Cocktail Party has proven itself a timeless chronicle of this most colorful period in pop history.

You better come on out as soon as you can. No, don't wait. Come now.' Even over the air, Abel's voice sounded urgent. Fowler could not account for it, but he had an uneasy feeling in his stomach.Three bodies are found in an abandoned culvert, one dead less than seventy-two hours and the others deteriorated into skeletons. Chief Fowler, a novice in the small southern town of Roackeville, realizes he doesn't have the experience to solve the case. Rather than risk turning it over to another agency and getting left out of the loop, Fowler turns to Richard Lett. Lett, a retired federal agent, is hesitant to help with the case. What if he has to face those dark places he's avoided for so long? Lett's sense of obligation to bring a murderer to justice wins over, and he signs on to solve the case. In a small town divided by economic status and race, tensions run high between law enforcement and potential suspects. The investigation takes more twists and turns than Fowler or Lett bargained for, and they can't help but wonder if the mysteries behind the murders will ever be revealed. Can Fowler and Lett break the social ties to solve the case? Will the intricate web of deeply buried secrets ever be untangled? Discover the mystery behind The Quarter Dollar.
