Music industry veterans
Robbie Robertson, Jim Guerinot, Jared Levine, and Sebastian
Robertson invite young readers to share with them in
celebrating twenty-seven musical legends. Short profiles
chronicle personal stories and achievements of
extraordinarily talented artists whose innovations changed
the landscape of music for generations to come. Carefully
compiled like any great playlist, the line-up features
originators, rebels, and risk-takers across diverse genres.
From Ray Charles to Johnny Cash, Chuck Berry to Bob Dylan,
Robertson shares anecdotes about these artists and the
influence they had on his own musical journey.
Always
respectful of their reader, the writers never shy away from
speaking about the difficult challenges these recording
artists faced and the very human foibles that sometimes led
to their tragic end. Most of all, it's the authors' passion
and insights into these personal stories of creativity and
collaboration -- and the power of music to shine a light on
injustice and foster change -- that will fascinate,
enlighten, and inspire music fans of all ages.”Exclusive
