Christopher Farnsworth The President's Vampire

From Bebop to Big Band, Funk to Monk, this comprehensive album showcases The Many Moods of Benny Golson. Whether playing his original tunes or interpreting standards from Duke Ellington or John Coltrane, saxophonist/composer and NEA Jazz Master Benny Golson illustrates the diverse genius that has made him one of the most influential artists in modern music and an unquestionable giant of Jazz. The album also features performances by Branford Marsalis, Art Farmer, Monty Alexander, Curtis Fuller, Marvin “Smitty” Smith, Nat Adderley, Mulgrew Miller, and many more.

New York City in 1978 is a dirty, dangerous place to live. And die. Joey Peacock knows this as well as anybody—he has spent the last forty years as an adolescent vampire, perfecting the routine he now enjoys: womanizing in punk clubs and discotheques, feeding by night, and sleeping by day with others of his kind in the macabre labyrinth under the city’s sidewalks.

Two is trapped: hooked on heroin, held as property, forced to sell her body to feed the addiction. Time brings her ever closer to what seems an inevitable death and Two waits, uncaring, longing only for the next fix. That's when Theroen arrives, beckoning to his Ferrari and grinning his inscrutable grin.

THE PRESIDENTS is an unprecedented eight-part survey of the personal lives and legacies of the remarkable men who have presided over the Oval Office. From George Washington to George W. Bush, THE PRESIDENTS gathers together vivid snapshots of all 43 Commanders in Chief who have guided America throughout its history–their powerful personalities, weaknesses, and major achievements or historical insignificance. Based on the book To the Best of My Ability, edited by Pulitzer Prize-winner James McPherson, THE PRESIDENTS features rare and unseen photographs and footage, unexpected insight and trivia from journalists, scholars, and politicians such as Walter Cronkite, David Brinkley, Wesley Clark, Bob Dole, and former President Jimmy Carter. Viewed within the changing contexts of each administration, the Presidency has never seemed more compelling and human.
