BOOK STORE: "LONDON CALLING, NEW YORK NEW YORK" BY PETER SILVERTONEnglish journalist Peter Silverton sadly died in 2023. It’s a great tribute to the man, therefore, that he left us with this fascinating look at two songs about two cities—The Clash’s “London Calling” and Frank Sinatra’s “New York New York”—that were cut within weeks of each other. Silverton examines the impact that the two classics had on their respective namesakes while digging deep into the societal reflections in the lyrics. What may have been a coincidence of timing turned into an essential read.(Paperback) $20The post BOOK STORE: "LONDON CALLING, NEW YORK NEW YORK" BY PETER SILVERTON first appeared on Music Connection Magazine.
