e-Books by Michael Erlewine

'The Televisionary Oracle is a book so weird it might drive you stark raving sane.' -Robert Anton Wilson 'Like a mutant love-child of Jack Kerouac and Anais Nin, Rob Brezsny writes with devilish humor, spiritual audacity, and erotic intensity. The Televisionary Oracle is a kick-ass gnostic tale. Prepare to be astonished.'

Michael Erlewine believes that a picture is worth 1,000 words, as the old saying goes, and his e-books show it; they are filled with full-color diagrams and illustrations. Erlewine writes: 'Printers don't want to do color anymore, at least in any quantity. These e-books contain thousands of full-color illustrations, many of them Astro*Image cards, which are tarot-cards for astrologers.'

If you like any of these books, they are available in paperback format at Amazon.com

Searching for Roots - Discovering Electric Blues in White America
24 pages
In the late 1950s and early 1960s the interest in folk music and its roots in rural America and the European Continent reached a high pitch as thousands of young adults crisscrossed America documenting folksongs and sharing authentic music. Folklore societies sprung up at many major campuses. This was a folk revival, one that has not been repeated since. But old English and Scottish ballads were not the only music discovered during this time. There was another even more indigenous music that needed no revival. In fact this music was very much alive and probably playing somewhere just across town, separated only by a racial curtain: modern city blues. This article is about the heyday of folk music in the late 1950s and early 1960s and something about how white America discovered the blues. Download PDF file
