Johan Bruyneel knows what it takes to win. In 1998, this calculating Belgian and former professional cyclist looked Lance Armstrong in the eye and said, "Look, if were going to ride the Tour, we might as well win." In that powerful phrase a dynasty was born.

Autobiographie des Gitarristen Ulli Boegershausen: Ulli Boegershausen begann vor 50 Jahren Gitarre zu spielen. "Love, love me do" von den Beatles hatte 1963 den damals 9-jährigen so begeistert, dass er loszog und sich eine Gitarrenlehrerin suchte.In einer westfälischen Kleinstadt in den 60er Jahren gab es noch niemanden, der sich mit einer E-Gitarre auskannte, es gab keine Noten, keine Videos. Ulli hörte die Musik von Schallplatten ab, gründete seine eigene Band und begann nach vielen Umwegen eine Karriere als Berufsmusiker. Seine Laufbahn führte ihn durch die Beatclubs der 60er, die Berliner Folkclubs der 70er und ab den 80er Jahren auf die internationalen Konzertbühnen.

In the wickedly bittersweet and hilarious You Must Go and Win, the Ukrainian-born musician Alina Simone traces her bizarre journey through the indie rock world, from disastrous Craigslist auditions with sketchy producers to catching fleas in a Williamsburg sublet. But Simone offers more than down-and-out tales of her time as a struggling musician: she has a rapier wit, slashing and burning her way through the absurdities of life, while offering surprising and poignant insights.

It occurred to standup comic and comedy writer Carol Liefer that she had to stop telling one of her favorite stories—seeing The Beatles perform at Shea Stadium—because it dated her. But then she thought: What's that about? "I see now that when you deny your age, you deny yourself, and when you lie about your age, you become your inauthentic twin. But most important, when you lie about your age, they win." And, of course, by 'they,' she means the terrorists. In this uproarious audiobook, Leifer reveals all—her age, her outlook, her life philosophy—with a no-holds-barred approach.
