The ultimate front-row seat to the rise, fall, and rebirth of a band that was—for a time—the biggest in the world, Hootie & the Blowish, and Jim Sonefeld's shattering and redeeming spiritual path from addiction to recovery and a more fruitful life<BR><BR> For a time, there was no bigger band in the world than Hootie & the Blowfish—rock & roll's unexpected foil to the grunge music that dominated the early '90s airwaves. In Swimming with the Blowfish, Jim Sonefeld, drummer and one of the band's principal songwriters, reveals the inside story of the band's humble beginnings, meteoric rise, sudden fall, and ultimate rebirth—and in the telling he opens his heart to readers about addiction, recovery, and faith.<BR><BR> Hootie became ubiquitous in the '90s—their debut album Cracked Rear View was one of the best-selling in the history of rock music; they won two Grammy Awards; their live performances were played alongside the Dave Matthews Band, R.E.M., and even Willie Nelson and Neil Young; and they appeared at the biggest venues in the world. Though Jim enjoyed the perks that came with fame—the parties, the relationships, the money, the drugs and alcohol—eventually it all became a camouflage that hid a deeper spiritual malady. As his life was careening toward disaster, he reached out his hands to seek relief in twelve-step recovery, eventually settling into a loving, but by no means uncomplicated, homelife.<BR><BR>  A book that encapsulates a band still beloved by legions of fans, Swimming with the Blowfish is much more—an unpretentious, emotional story of one man's spiritual path to a more fruitful life. Jim's journey is shattering, redeeming, and ultimately as comforting as your favorite flannel shirt.

Drawing upon Scripture, Magisterial teaching and his vast experience as a conductor, organist, composer and liturgical director, Aurelio Porfiri has created a compact but comprehensive handbook for liturgical music directors. His experience as a conductor and his intimate knowledge of the inner dynamics of choirs form the foundation for guidelines that are very practical and, at the same time, quite beautiful in their reverence for proper liturgical music.The book progresses in a logical manner, beginning with a look at the ancient practices to be found in Temple worship and the central place of King David as a role model. Porfiri then proceeds to offer insightful reflections and useful advice on topics such as the proper formation of singers, conductors and clerics; guidelines for musical selection based upon his deep understanding of the Catholic Mass; various strategies for recruiting, training and forming singers - including the importance of cultivating a love for sacred music in children.The writing is clear, warm, and straightforward and is informed by his substantial knowledge of Church teaching on sacred music from Pius X's Tra le sollecitudini through what was actually taught at Vatican II in Sacrosanctum Concilium. This is a book that can serve liturgical music directors in many different Parish contexts. Its emphasis on deep listening and creating a healthy, spiritually nourishing environment for liturgical singers will be of value both to beginners and more experienced conductors.Frank La Rocca, Ph.D, Composer in Residence, Benedict XVI Institute.
