Rainbow in the dark: Historien om Ronnie James Dio är den officiella biografin om hårdrockens mest framgångsrike sångare genom tiderna: Ronnie James Dio, den lille mannen med den enorma rösten. Mannen bakom den världsberömda horngesten inledde faktiskt sin musikaliska karriär som trumpetare och doo wop-sångare på sextiotalet. Men snart kom han att inta större scener och med band som Rainbow, Black Sabbath och det egna bandet DIO blev framgångarna monumentala med närmare 50 miljoner album sålda. Ronnie James Dio inledde själv arbetet med denna biografi och hade kommit en bra bit in när sjukdomen ryckte bort honom. De senare delarna är nedtecknade av Ronnies änka Wendy och den världsberömde musikbiografen Mick Wall. Boken är översatt av hårdrocksjournalisten Carl Linnaeus.

Axl Rose is one of rock's most colourful figures and yet his story has never been properly told until now. Mick Wall knew the original line-up of Guns N' Roses before they were famous and has interviewed them many times. Drawing on exclusive unpublished material he has written a no-holds-barred study of the turbulent life and career of the group's singer and leader. Wall describes Axl's difficult childhood in Indiana and how, after escaping to LA, he and his fledgling band struggled to survive until they signed up by Geffen in 1986. The first album, Appetite for Destruction, turned them into stars but the band's lurid lifestyle took its toll - they embarked on a two-year tour that sounded the death knell for the original line-up. As their lives slipped out of control, the original members bar Axl all left. Axl himself turned into an increasingly reclusive figure, working on the long-awaited Chinese Democracy album. In 2006 he re-emerged into public view as Guns N' Roses embarked on a world tour. Scrupulously researched and vividly written, W. Axl Rose is an explosive biography of one of rock's biggest living legends.

Tearing Down the Wall of Sound: The Rise and Fall of Phil Spector
A stunning biography of "pure self-interest and cruelty, tempered only slightly by the great musical achievements of Mr. Spector's golden age in the early 1960s" (The New York Times). He had a number one hit at eighteen. He was a millionaire with his own record label at twenty-two. He was, according to Tom Wolfe, "the first tycoon of teen." Phil Spector owned pop music. From the Crystals, the Ronettes (whose lead singer, Ronnie, would become his second wife), and the Righteous Brothers to the Beatles (together and singly) and finally the seventies punk icons The Ramones, Spector produced hit after hit. But then he became pop music's most famous recluse. Until one day in the spring of 2007, when his name hit the tabloids, connected to a horrible crime. In this "bruising portrait of legendary music producer Phil Spector" (Entertainment Weekly), the last journalist to interview him before his arrest tells the full story of the troubled genius.

For fans new and old, Standing by the Wall is an excellent introduction to the extended literary universe of Mick Herron's Slow Horses. Collection includes: The List, The Marylebone Drop, The Catch, The Last Dead Letter, and Standing by the Wall.

Author Phillip Norman, whose previous bestseller, John Lennon: The Life, was praised as a "haunting, mammoth, terrific piece of work" (New York Times Book Review) and whose classic Shout is widely considered to be the definitive biography of the Beatles, now turns his attention to the iconic front man of the Rolling Stones, "the greatest rock 'n' roll band in the world." Norman's Mick Jagger is an extraordinarily detailed and vibrantly written in-depth account of the life and half-century-long career of one of the most fascinating and complex superstars of rock music--the most comprehensive biography to date of the famously enigmatic musician. Keith Richards had his say in Life. Now it's time to get to know intimately the other half of the duo responsible for such enduring hits as "Paint It Black," "Sympathy for the Devil," "Gimme Shelter," and "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction." Mick Jagger is a must read for Stones fans, and everyone who can't get enough of the serious memoirs and biographies of popular musicians, like Patti Smith's Just Kids, Does the Noise in My Head Bother You? by Steven Tyler, and the Warren Zevon story, I'll Sleep When I'm Dead.
