This book deconstructs each of Plant's 11 thought-provoking albums. It's hoped that the reader emerges with a new and nuanced appreciation for what Robert's been trying to achieve over the decades.

  • von Brian Ireland

    Over a decade after his untimely death, Gary Moore remains something of an enigma. A private, sometimes troubled man, he nevertheless chose a profession that exposed him to public scrutiny. Moore remained secretive about most aspects of his private life. This biography focuses on Moore's public life: after all, music was his chosen mode of expression. Yet, it seems clear that at least some consideration of his private life is required when that approach leads to deeper and broader understanding of his music. This dual, balanced approach will provide relevant narrative context, as well as uncover hidden motivations and meaning.

    When Kate Bush shot to fame in 1978, her public image was of a sweet young woman who sang about Cathy out on the windy moors. Charming, inoffensive and not challenging.
