Dave Van Ronk was one of the founding figures of the 1960s folk revival, but he was far more than that. A pioneer of modern acoustic blues, a fine songwriter and arranger, a powerful singer, and one of the most influential guitarists of the ’60s, he was also a marvelous storyteller, a peerless musical historian, and one of the most quotable figures on the Village scene. The Mayor of MacDougal Street is a firsthand account by a major player in the social and musical history of the ’50s and ’60s.

Memoir of the “folk scene “
Revisado: 05-10-22
Great stories
Great performance
Since it’s a string of stories and reminiscences it’s better as an audio book than a read. It’s not an autobiography but Van Ronk setting the record straight. It’s easy to listen to very enjoyable.

From an acclaimed Harvard professor and one of Time’s most influential people, this paradigm-shifting audiobook shows how almost everything we think we know about aging is wrong, offers a front-row seat to the amazing global effort to slow, stop, and reverse aging, and calls listeners to consider a future where aging can be treated.

Not much science here
Revisado: 03-24-22
A few chapters about science and three quarters of the book is personal opinion or anecdotes. He is enthusiastic but not worth this whole book. Any available you tube and the like will give all the science information. I think his advocating metformin for anti-aging is dangerous.

Okay
Revisado: 12-19-20
For a newbie to this area.
I mean if you’ve been reading Runner’sWorld
Or Men’s Health or the New York Times health section and you have/had a grandmother you know most of the information but listening to it boosted my motivation.

There is nothing more essential to our health and well-being than breathing. Yet, as a species, humans have lost the ability to breathe correctly, with grave consequences. Journalist James Nestor travels the world to figure out what went wrong and how to fix it. The answers aren’t found in pulmonology labs, as we might expect, but in the muddy digs of ancient burial sites, secret Soviet facilities, New Jersey choir schools, and the smoggy streets of São Paulo. Nestor tracks down men and women exploring the hidden science behind ancient breathing practices.

The book leads to teaching lessons for breathing exercises which are the best of any I’ve come across.

Better than I thought
Revisado: 09-26-20
The problem with good diet books is they are boring and give you sensible advice like eat your vegetables and most correct dietary information is what your grandmother would say but this book is fascinating as it takes you down the rabbit hole of diets and their history and is quite fascinating.

The story of the 1969 New York Mets’ season has long since entered sports lore as one of the most remarkable of all time. But beyond the “miracle” is a compelling narrative of an unlikely collection of players and the hallowed manager who inspired them to greatness.

You don’t have to be a fan
Revisado: 04-17-19
But it helps.
Great choice picking Gary Cohn to read.
Cements Gil Hodges as the central force of the 69 Mets.
Any casual baseball fan will enjoy this. My wife enjoyed it. If you were around for the season, you’ll cry.
