Las muchas vidas de John Lennon
Recuperamos la más controvertida biografía de John Lennon. El 8 de diciembre de 2010 se cumplen treinta años de un hecho que conmocionó al mundo entero: el asesinato de John Lennon. En su día, Las muchas vidas de John Lennon fue criticada por los fans incondicionales del artista, pues aquí se muestra el lado oscuro del hombre que cantaba Imagine y hablaba de un mundo sin paraíso y sin infierno, mientras su vida y la de su compañera Yoko Ono estaba muy lejos de esta idea idílica de un mundo donde todos podían vivir en paz. Las dudas sobre su propia identidad y elabuso de drogas atormentaron a John Lennon, y su carrera artística estuvo plagada de momentos duros, que la prensa ocultó para no dañar la imagen del ídolo. Después de entrevistar a más de mil personas y tras seis años de trabajo, Goldman consiguió un retrato a cuerpo entero de un hombreque con sus letras y su música fue el símbolo de una generación que aún se veía capaz de convertir los sueños en realidad.

Sound Bites
Sound Bites is history by strobe light, an electrifying collection that picks you up and sets you down in the best seat in the house for an all-star rock show that spans three decades. Albert Goldman, renowned for his definitive, controversial, bestselling biographies of Lenny Bruce, Elvis Presley, and John Lennon, is the foremost writer today--or yesterday--on American music. Now, the man Newsweek called "half scholarly intellectual and half funky pop rock schlock freak" chronicles the sounds and scenes of rock''s apocalypse through this collection of his most riveting pieces. From the screaming frenzy of an early Elvis concert to the sweaty fervor of James Brown at the Apollo; from the mind-bending chaos of the Electric Circus to the supersonic vapor bath of Studio 54; from Motown to Memphis, rockabilly to acid, Jagger to Hendrix to Tiny Tim--Goldman covers rock''s birth, maturity, and decadent decline with fierce energy. Here is a critical and celebratory journey into the glitter and gore of rock and roll, by its most provocative evocateur.
