1971 - Never a Dull Moment: Rock's Golden Year ✓ In Stock

*THE SUNDAY TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLER* The Sixties ended a year late - on New Year's Eve 1970, when Paul McCartney initiated proceedings to wind up The Beatles. Music would never be the same again. The next day would see the dawning of a new era. 1971 saw the release of more monumental albums than any year before or since and the establishment of a pantheon of stars to dominate the next forty years - Led Zeppelin, David Bowie, the Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, Marvin Gaye, Carole King, Joni Mitchell, Rod Stewart, the solo Beatles and more. January that year fired the gun on an unrepeatable surge of creativity, technological innovation, blissful ignorance, naked ambition and outrageous good fortune. By December rock had exploded into the mainstream. How did it happen? This book tells you how. It's the story of 1971, rock's golden year.

Pat Kelleher (b. 1939), former director of CIT (part 1) ✓ In Stock

Pat Kelleher was born in Limerick where his father was stationed at Edward Street Garda Station. Some years after the death of his father, when Pat was 17 years old, the family moved to Galway. Pat describes his own background in education and his professional experiences up until 1963 where he joined the staff of the Crawford Municipal Technical Institute, operating under the City of Cork VEC. He discusses the origins and the development of the Regional Technical College (RTC), his time spent as a member of staff of the Crawford Municipal Technical Institute and his introduction to Cork’s technical education system. He recalls the people who worked with him in the Crawford, the move to Bishopstown and his time as a director of the RTC. He also speaks about other colleges, such as the National Marine College at Ringaskiddy. He describes the establishment of the Biomedical Science laboratory and recalls the introduction of Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electronic Engineering and Computing, the academic structures when the new RTCs were set up in the early 1970s and the introduction of expert teachers. In 1971 Pat Kelleher helped organise a conference on technical education as part of his involvement in the Cork Scientific Council of which he was treasurer, and he describes this mammoth logistical undertaking. He has a real love of music, which he discusses in this recording.
