A revelatory memoir by rock icon and legendary guitarist Peter Frampton.
Reissuing with all new material to coincide with a Leonard Cohen documentary coming fall 2020 featuring the author, Alan Light--a fascinating, terrifically-reviewed account of the making, remaking and unlikely popularizing of one of the most played and recorded rock songs in history - Leonard Cohen's beautiful and heartrending "Hallelujah."
Inspired by the Oscar-nominated Netflix documentary, What Happened, Miss Simone? is an intimate and vivid portrait of the twentieth-century icon Nina Simone.
Alan Light, former writer for Rolling Stone, editor-in-chief of Vibe and Spin magazines, and author of The Holy or the Broken, gets inside Princes mind palace in Lets Go Crazya history of the making of his historic, semi-autobiographical musical masterwork, Purple Rain (Vanity Fair).Purple Rain is a song, an album, and a filmwidely considered to be among the most important albums in music history and often named the best soundtrack of all time. It sold over a million copies in its first week of release in 1984 and blasted to #1 on the charts, where it would remain for a full six months and eventually sell over 20 million copies worldwide. It spun off three huge hit singles, won Grammys and an Oscar, and took Prince from pop star to legendthe first artist ever simultaneously to have the #1 album, single, and movie in the country. In Lets Go Crazy, acclaimed music journalist Alan Light takes a timely look at the making and incredible popularizing of this once seemingly impossible project. With impeccable research and in-depth interviews with people who witnessed and participated in Princes audacious vision becoming a reality, Light reveals how a rising but not yet established artist from the Midwest was able not only to get Purple Rain made, but deliver on his promise to conquer the world. A must-read for the Prince die-hards who have remained devoted through the musical meanderings of the last three decades (Kirkus Reviews), Lets Go Crazy examines how the masterpiece that blurred R&B, pop, dance, and rock sounds altered the recording landscape and became an enduring touchstone for successive generations of fans.
