WHAT HAPPENS AT THE CHURCH STREET BREWERY DOESN''T ALL STAY THEREThe Church Street Brewery is located in the center of Uptown, in what use to be called Mechanicsville, a mile north of downtown. In the 1930s, during the Depression, only the rich factory owners could afford to live in downtown. The small-business owners of automobile shops or tailors moved to Mechanicsville, where now stands The Church Street Brewery.On any night, this former furniture factory, a one-story remodeled building is surrounded by several dozen folks sitting or standing on the outdoor patio or attending a university-sponsored religions discussion. Some sit like Rae and some stand like Professor David. A reserved Nadia sits at a nearby table and talks with her college friend Yuan, a 20-something Chinese-born student. Some men, like the 70-something Jim, a pillar of the community, float around the patio with a glass of chardonnay in hand. The reserved Carlton is a 71-year-old widower whose wife Dorothy died of breast cancer nine months ago. On sunny days, a cancer survivor, Debra, dons a cap to hide her hair loss while she strokes paint across a canvas. Next to Debra is Katherine, a 40-something, single, political operative who works for the governor of North Carolina.Then one fall Wednesday evening, all thesecharacters strangely (coincidentally?) meet,converse, and warm their bodies from thepatio fire pit. Some drink and some just talk.Some are kind and some are rude. At least one person''s life is changed ina moment that Wednesday night.

This is an inspiring, behind-the-scenes memoir about the First Female Rock Duo in Britain, Emily Muff, that blazed a trail during the Golden Age of Rock. Co-founded in London by two gutsy young American women in 1968, author Kathy Bushnell provides a first-hand account of what it was like to navigate the choppy waters of the male-dominated world of rock. She and her bandmate, Janet, wrote original songs and sang powerful harmonies. They also played Telecaster and Rickenbacker electric guitars, keyboards, flute, and blues harmonicas. Their female rock duo toured Great Britain extensively, opening concerts for the bands Family and Quintessence. It also appeared on the same bill as Yes, the Move, Steppenwolf, Van der Graaf Generator, the Nice, and America. Emily Muff received offers from several record companies, and also appeared on BBC Wales-TV and BBC London-TV. It wasn''t always an easy road, but Kathy and Janet''s creativity and determination helped Emily Muff achieve recognition as a bona fide chick rock duo in Britain. EM & MOO: Legacy of a ''60s Female Rock Duo will appeal to a wide range of readers, including teens and young women/men who aspire to enter the rock ''n'' roll arena. It will also be of interest to history buffs, and Baby Boomers eager to reconnect with the psychadelic scene and amazing music of the late ''60s-early ''70s.
