"In early 1991, top music manager Danny Goldberg agreed to take on Nirvana, a critically acclaimed new band from the underground music scene in Seattle. He had no idea that the band's leader, Kurt Cobain, would become a pop-culture icon with a legacy arguably at the level of that of John Lennon, Michael Jackson, or Elvis Presley. Danny worked with Kurt from 1990 to 1994--the last four years of his life, the events of which resonated around the world. He witnessed the stratospheric success of Nevermind, which turned Nirvana into the most successful rock band in the world and made 'punk' and 'grunge' household terms; Kurt's meeting and marriage to the brilliant but mercurial Courtney Love and how their relationship became a lightning rod for critics; the birth of their daughter, Frances Bean; and, finally, Kurt's public struggles with addiction, which ended in a devastating suicide that would alter the course of rock history. Throughout, Danny stood by Kurt's side as his manager and close friend. Drawing on Goldberg's own memories of Kurt, files that previously have not been made public, and interviews with, among others, Kurt's close family, friends, and former bandmates, Serving the Servant sheds an entirely new light on these critical years. Casting aside the common obsession with the angst and depression that seemingly drove Kurt, Serving the Servants is an exploration of his brilliance in every aspect of rock and roll, his compassion, his ambition, and the legacy he wrought--one that has lasted decades longer than his career did. Danny Goldberg examines what it is about Kurt Cobain that still resonates today, even with a generation who wasn't alive until after Kurt's death. In the process, he provides a portrait of an icon unlike any that has come before."--Publisher's description

In early 1991, music manager Danny Goldberg took on Nirvana, an emerging band from Seattle, unaware that its leader, Kurt Cobain, would become a pop-culture icon akin to John Lennon or Elvis Presley. Danny worked closely with Kurt from 1990 to 1994, a pivotal period marked by the explosive success of "Nevermind," which catapulted Nirvana to global fame and popularized punk and grunge music. During this time, Kurt married the enigmatic Courtney Love, whose relationship with him drew significant media attention. Their daughter, Frances Bean, was born, and Kurt's struggles with addiction culminated in a tragic suicide that profoundly impacted rock history. Throughout these tumultuous years, Danny remained a steadfast manager and friend. Drawing from personal memories, unpublished files, and interviews with Kurt's family, friends, and bandmates, the narrative offers a fresh perspective on this critical era. Rather than focusing solely on Kurt's struggles, it highlights his remarkable talent, compassion, and ambition, showcasing a legacy that continues to resonate today, even with those born after his death. Danny Goldberg presents an unparalleled portrait of an enduring icon, illuminating the aspects of Kurt Cobain that still captivate audiences.

Six weeks after 9/11, the USA Patriot Act was rushed through Congress. This 300-page bill gave sweeping new powers to the FBI, CIA, and Immigration and Naturalization Service, permitting them to wiretap telephone conversations, read E-mails, and arrest, detain, and deport suspicious individuals. It's a Free Country examines the frightening consequences of the Patriot Act. Voices from across the political spectrum are represented, from civil libertarians of the left-Ira Glasser, Howard Zinn, Tom Hayden, and Michael Moore-to conservative critics of overreaching government, including former U.S. Representative Bob Barr of Georgia and Republican activist Paul Weyrich. Also included are original works by Steve Earle, Ani DiFranco, and Matt Groening. As Cornel West writes in his foreword: "The best way to pay homage to those innocent fellow human beings who were viciously killed on September 11, 2001 ... is to insure that their loved ones-as well as ourselves-live in an American democracy forever vigilant in its quest for freedom, and forever vigorous in its efforts to secure our precious liberties alongside our safety." A thoughtful and timely anthology, this edition has been completely updated.
