Описание:

The music of Queen and powerhouse lead singer Freddie Mercury are best experienced with the volume turned all the way up. Alfonso Casas’s Freddie Mercury delivers a sonorous homage to the formidable singer and the turning points that produced a game-changing body of music that continues to inspire fans around the globe.

First published in Spain and now available worldwide, this luminous work covers Freddie's three “births”: his birth as Farrokh Bulsara in Zanzibar; his adoption of the last name of Mercury and the launch of Queen with Brian May and Roger Taylor; and the emergence of the lasting legend after Freddie’s death at the age of forty-five. Casas's evocative illustrations highlight the key moments in the singer’s transformation from child prodigy to superstar, bringing to life the bold innovator who broke free of his conventional upbringing. Chronicling events from Freddie’s marriage to Mary Austin and early fame in London’s 1970s glam scene, to the making of multiple megahits (including the six-minute chart-topper “Bohemian Rhapsody”), to his final years in a lasting relationship with Jim Hutton, Freddie Mercury is an exhilarating, poignant portrait of a creative genius who lived life to the hilt.

Описание: "Johnny Depp - The Illustrated Biography" is the story of one of Hollywood's biggest stars, whose extraordinary journey has taken him from schoolboy misfit and hedonistic rock-star to a compelling Oscar-nominated actor and devoted family man. Lavishly illustrated, the book is fully updated to include Johnny Depp's most recent film roles, as the demon barber of Fleet Street in "Sweeney Todd", further outings as Captain Jack Sparrow in "Pirates of the Caribbean", and as the Mad Hatter in "Alice in Wonderland". As a child, Johnny was an outsider. Life at home was chaotic; his family moved twenty times by the time he was fifteen. He found expression through music, and by thirteen he was playing in bands at clubs. He had taken every kind of drug there was by the age of fourteen, and had brushes with the law. As an adult he turned to acting, but continued to live by his own rules, confounding and delighting critics and fans alike with his choice of roles. His future off screen is more uncertain than ever following the break-up of his long-term relationship with Vanessa Paradis and the endless rumors of new girlfriends and flings. This paperback edition includes an up to date look at the triumphs and successes of Johnny Depp, as well as his upbringing and private life.

Описание: Safroni-Middleton, also known as Count Safroni, (1873-1950) was a British composer, director, violinist, harpist, writer and amateur astronomer. For several of his works he used the pseudonym William H Myddleton. He studied violin with Pablo de Sarasate and afterwards performed as a violinist, playing with orchestras in Sydney, Auckland, Providence (RI), and Tokyo. As a solo performer he toured around Australia, South America, Italy and Spain, and later became bandmaster of the Carl Rosa Opera Company in London. His spirit of adventure led him to explore far-flung places such as Borneo, Papua New Guinea and Malaysia, and he wrote travel guides, memoirs, novels and poems. As a composer he is best remembered for his marches and dance music for the harmony orchestra, and his most well-known piece is Imperial Echoes (1913) which for many years was the theme of Radio Newsreel on BBC radio. This volume of memoirs published in 1918 and subtitled 'Reminiscences and a Romance of the South Seas' gives an account of his time in the South Sea Islands. Illustrated with photographs and facsimiles of sheet music.

Описание: Sheridan (nee Frewen, 1885-1970) was an English sculptor, journalist and writer known primarily for making busts of famous sitters and for her diaries recounting her world travels. She was a cousin of Sir Winston Churchill with whom she enjoyed an amicable relationship, though her support for the October Revolution of 1917 caused them to break ranks politically. Among her circle of friends were Princess Margaret of Sweden, Lord and Lady Mountbatten, Lady Diana Cooper, Vita Sackville-West and Vivien Leigh. One of her daughters died in infancy in 1914 and her husband was killed in action in 1915, a few days after the birth of their third child, a son. In 1920 she was invited to Russia to make busts of notable revolutionaries including Lenin and Trotsky, and it was rumoured that she had affairs with more than one of her sitters. In 1921 she visited America where she embarked on a love affair with Charlie Chaplin and this diary published in 1922 gives an account of her time there. Illustrated with photographs.

Описание:

David Bowie was a master of artifice and reinvention. In that same spirit, illustrator María Hesse and writer Fran Ruiz have created a vivid retelling of the life of David Robert Jones, from his working-class childhood to glam rock success to superstardom, concluding with the final recording sessions after his cancer diagnosis.

Narrated from the rock star’s point of view, Bowie colorfully renders both the personal and the professional turning points in a life marked by evolution and innovation. We see Bowie facing the sorrow of his brother’s mental illness, kicking a cocaine habit while other musicians succumbed to deadly overdoses, contending with a tumultuous love life, and radiating joy as a father. Along the way, he describes how he shattered the boundaries of song and society with a counterculture cast that included Iggy Pop, Brian Eno, and Freddie Mercury—as well as his own creations, Ziggy Stardust and the Thin White Duke.

Evocatively illustrated from start to finish, Bowie is a stellar tribute to an inimitable star.

Описание: This is the complete, illustrated history of Fleetwood Mac, the legendary band that has sold more than 100 million records worldwide.

From this British-American band's blues origins in the 1960s to its pop superstardom in the 1970s and 1980s to its 2015 reunion, Fleetwood Mac has endeared itself to audiences worldwide. Fleetwood Mac: The Complete Illustrated Historycovers the band's illustrious career through a carefully researched text and myriad photographs and memorabilia, including some rare and little-seen items. Spanning the band's 50+ years and seventeen studio albums, this roller-coaster history highlights details that will surprise even the most loyal fans.

The band's most popular lineup includes drummer Mick Fleetwood, bassist John McVie, keyboardist and vocalist Christine McVie, guitarist and vocalist Lindsey Buckingham, and singer Stevie Nicks, but its members have shifted over the years since Fleetwood Mac began in 1967. And although the band's superstar phase in the 1970s is most familiar to the public, Fleetwood Mac's roots were in the blues, and the band evolved in fits and starts before finding popular success.

Fleetwood Mac: The Complete Illustrated History documents their entire story, including the troubled circumstances that led to the 1970 withdrawal of the band's original guitarist, Peter Green, as well as the broken marriage of John and Christine McVie and the romantic breakup of Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham that threatened to split the group--all to be followed by one of the biggest albums of all time, Rumours, which featured such enduring hits as "Dreams," "Don't Stop," and "Go Your Own Way."

This is the whole story of one of rock and roll's greatest bands--required reading for fans.

Описание: Erroll Garner (1921-1977) was an inimitable jazz pianist and composer who enjoyed international recognition performing for audiences in concert halls and clubs throughout the world. He released many of his own compositions as well as popular songs on more than forty record labels throughout his career. In Erroll: The Essential LPs, author Jim Doran surveys well over a hundred 10- and 12-inch LPs produced over Garner's thirty years of recorded output. Each LP has its own page, in color, that lists the song titles and discographical information, including personnel, dates, and locations of the recording sessions. Doran celebrates those individuals behind the scenes who produced the visual art of the album covers-the art directors, graphic designers, photographers, artists, and illustrators. He also takes note of the record labels, including Atlantic, Blue Note, Columbia, Mercury, MGM, Philips, and Savoy. Also included is a well-crafted biography that takes us from Garner and his twin brother's birth in the East Liberty section of Pittsburgh all the way through his magnificent career starting with the Kan-D-Kids on radio station KQV. This book is a visual extravaganza and a remarkable achievement that dignifies the life and recorded output of Erroll Garner. This volume is certainly an important addition to the literature of jazz that will serve scholars, researchers, and Garner collectors for many years to come.
