    Slash
    • Da uno dei più grandi chitarristi rock della nostra era arriva un memoir che ridefinisce sesso, droga e rock 'n' roll. Slash racconta per la prima volta la storia che deve ancora essere narrata dall'interno: come si è formata la leggendaria band Guns N' Roses, come hanno scritto la musica che ha definito un'epoca, come hanno sopportato tour folli e interminabili, come sono sopravvissuti a se stessi e, infine, come tutto è crollato. Slash è una finestra sul mondo del noto chitarrista riservato e un posto in prima fila su un ottovolante che è stata una delle più grandi macchine del rock 'n' roll della storia, sempre sul bordo dell'autodistruzione, anche al culmine del suo successo. Slash è tutto ciò che Slash è: divertente, onesto, ingegnoso, ispiratore, sbalorditivo... e, in una parola, eccessivo.

      In 1999, a former dishwasher from Detroit became the most influential music artist in the world. He was a fish out of water, a white artist creating powerful art in a black medium, telling stories with verbal dexterity, nimble wit, and an honesty that shocked the world. Eminem changed the landscape of music and pop culture as we know it. Then, in 2006, at the height of his fame and as one of the biggest-selling artists of all time, Eminem all but disappeared. Beset by non-stop controversies, bewildering fame, a debilitating drug problem, and personal tragedies, he became a virtual recluse, withdrawing to his Detroit area compound. He struggled with weight gain and a prescription pill addiction that resulted in an overdose that nearly took his life. Over the next five years, he got sober, relapsed, and finally got clean, before triumphantly returning to the top. Rhyme and Reason captures Eminem's "wilderness years" in his own words and through the insights of those closest to him. Chronicling the music, personal, and spiritual growth of one of music's most enduring and enigmatic artists, this is an intimate portrait of an incredibly private man known by many to be the greatest rapper alive.

      Let there be Rock Jeder liebt AC/DC. Von der Dorfdisco bis zum Fußballstadion gilt: Wenn die Gitarrenriffs von Angus Young ertönen, gehen sie alle in Luftgitarrenstellung und machen mit der Hand den Teufelsgruß. Ganz gleich, ob es sich um eingefleischte Rockfans, Technojünger oder Verteidigungsminster Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg handelt. Bestsellerautor Anthony Bozza ergründet das Phänomen AC/DC auf ganz eigene Art und Weise. AC/DC verkaufen mehr Platten als Michael Jackson, Bruce Springsteen oder die Rolling Stones. Ihre Konzerte sind in Minutenschnelle ausverkauft, dennoch wurden sie von den Musikjournalisten lange Zeit eher ignoriert und belächelt. Mit »Warum AC/DC die Größten sind« hat Bestsellerautor Anthony Bozza eine Kampfschrift und Liebeserklärung verfasst, in der er es sich zur Aufgabe gemacht hat, die Einzigartigkeit und Genialität der Band zum Ausdruck zu bringen. Er liefert faszinierende Geschichten und Einblicke hinter die Kulissen der größten Rockband unserer Tage, wobei ihm Rockstars wie Slash, aber auch eingeschworene Fans und Musikwissenschaftler unterstützen. Hochwertige Ausstattung in Lederoptik.
