The Rock And Roll Book Of The Dead

The Fatal Journeys of Rock's Seven Immortals. This book explores the turbulent ups and downs and abrupt endings of the lives of seven rock icons - Hendrix, Joplin, Morrison, Lennon, Presley, Cobain and Garcia. Each chapter traces one of these seven artists' lives, from their childhood traumas to their fatal attractions and show how much they had in common - as if cast in the same essential mythic legend. All were obsessed with becoming stars, but once they achieved fame, all of them paid the price for their stardom. For each, drugs provided their temporary escape and, in the end, emancipation.
