”Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio specializes in the lost art of “feel-good music.” The ingredients of this intoxicating cocktail include a big helping of the 1960s organ jazz stylings of and Baby Face Willette; a pinch of the snappy soul strut of Booker T. & The M.G.’s and The Meters; and sprinkles Motown, Stax Records, blues, and cosmic Jimi Hendrix-style guitar. It’s a soul-jazz concoction that goes straight to your heart and head and makes your body break out in a sweat.”

Understanding Society through Popular Music

The purpose of this book is to use music as a tool to help students understand the structure and process of social life.  Sociologically, music is important because it simultaneously contains and reflects a people's language, values, feelings, concerns, and goals.  The material in this innovative, compact supplement is current and relevant to the musical experiences of today's college and university students and includes a companion web site that features an instructor's guide, test bank, discussion questions, and links to relevant internet sites.
You can find a lot of educational books like this here at The Artform Studio. All of our books are curated by

Os Mutantes - 1968

Os Mutantes is the debut album by the Brazilian tropicalia band Os Mutantes.

Remembering one of the most influential singers of all time on his earthly birthday. We remember this legend and his transcendent influence on singers young and old. He tragically lost his battle to mental illness at the age of 33. He lives on in the iconic American standards he created, like “This Christmas” one of the most performed holiday songs of all time.

Grace Jones - Ill Never Write My Memoirs (2016)

Grace Jones, a veritable “triple-threat” as acclaimed actress, singer, and model, has dominated the entertainment industry since her emergence as a model in New York City in 1968. Quickly discovered for her obvious talent and cutting-edge style, Grace signed her first record deal in 1977 and became one of the more unforgettable characters to emerge from the Studio 54 disco scene, releasing the all-time favorite hits, “Pull Up to the Bumper,” “Slave to the Rhythm,” and “I’m Not Perfect (But I’m Perfect for You).” And with her sexually charged, outrageous live shows in the New York City nightclub circuit, Grace soon earned the title of “Queen of the Gay Discos.”

Ghostface Killah - Ironman (Razor Sharp Records, Epic Street, 1996)

Though it boasts cameos from nearly every other Wu-Tang member...
 Ironman is unlike any other record in RZA's catalog of productions. The music is largely built on samples of early-'70s soul, from Al Green to the Delfonics, who make a guest appearance on "After the Smoke Is Clear." Consequently, the mood of the album can switch tones at the drop of a hat, moving from hard funk like "Daytona 500" to seductive soul with the Mary J. Blige duet "All That I Got Is You." 

Check this out and our many other LPs we have in store. We are open daily!

Rosa Parks (Little People, Big Dreams) (2017)

Rosa Parks grew up in Alabama, where she learned to stand up for herself at an early age. Rosa went on to become a civil rights activist. In 1955, she refused to give up her seat to a white man on a segregated bus, sparking the Montgomery Bus Boycott. Her courageous decision had a huge impact on civil rights, eventually leading to the end of segregation on public transport. She never stopped working for equal rights. This moving book features stylish and quirky illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of the activist's life.

We have a whole bunch of books, including children’s books like this one, in our shop. All curated by

The iconic life and work of Keith Haring is in detail through the words of Simon Doonan

Repost: The Artform Studio

Keith Haring (Lives of the Artist) ( , 2021)

Revolutionary and renegade, Keith Haring was an artist for the people, creating an instantly recognizable repertoire of symbols – barking dogs, space-ships, crawling babies, clambering faceless people – which became synonymous with the volatile culture of 1980s. Like a careening, preening pinball, Keith Haring playfully slammed into all aspects of this decade – hip-hop, new-wave, graffiti, funk, art, style, gay culture – and brought them together.
