The first full-length biography of Mal Evans, the Beatles'' beloved roadie, assistant, confidant and friend
A towering figure in horn-rimmed glasses, Malcolm ''Mal'' Evans was an invaluable member of the Beatles'' inner circle. Serving as their long-time roadie, personal assistant and protector, he was a sometime lyricist, occasional performer and regular fixer at the height of the group''s fame and beyond.
But Mal''s dedication to his beloved ''boys'' and his own desire for stardom took its toll, leading to the dissolution of his marriage and his untimely death in January 1976. Until now, Mal''s extraordinary life has remained shrouded in mystery. Drawing on hundreds of exclusive interviews and with full access to Mal''s unpublished archives - including his personal diaries, manuscripts and memorabilia - renowned Beatles scholar Kenneth Womack paints the first complete portrait of this complicated figure at the heart of the Beatles'' story.
Living the Beatles Legend is a fascinating but ultimately tragic tale about life at the edges of superstardom.

'This is the truth as we know it. I have read so much about what people think they know about Michael, but this is about what really happened.' Jermaine Jackson
Written by close friend Chris Salewicz, with full approval and cooperation from family and fellow musicians, this is the definitive account of British rock 'n' roll's most fascinating of idols. Leader of The Clash and inspiration to the likes of U2 and Manic Street Preachers, Joe Strummer was the musical and political pioneer of his generation.
From bestselling biographer Sean Smith comes the fascinating and tumultuous true story behind Sir Tom Jones, the nation''s treasure, sage of The Voice and living music legend. Celebrating his 75th birthday this year, Tom Jones'' life has been an unforgettable rollercoaster ride. From starting out in a little Welsh mining town where he married his sweetheart at just 16, who could have known that seven years later he would go on to become a major musical hit that would propel him to Bel Air? Through intimate interviews, Smith uncovers all this and more, including the years Tom spent as little more than a Vegas lounge singer, before being rediscovered in the late ''80s and becoming a maestro on the music scene once again. As revealing as it is entertaining, this is the definitive story of a great talent who is showing no signs of slowing down.
He is one of the greatest musical talents Britain has ever produced. But even as the principle songwriter and lead guitarist for The Who, it would be unjust to define Pete Townshend's life simply through his achievements with bandmates Daltrey, Moon and Entwistle.
Created in collaboration with the estate of Jim Morrison and inspired by a posthumously discovered list written by Morrison entitled "Plan for Book," The Collected Works of Jim Morrison is a landmark publication featuring both published and unpublished poems, prose, and lyrics and more than 200 personal color and black-and-white photographs, drawings, journal excerpts, notes and lyrics in his own hand; plus a bound-in 16-page facsimile pamphlet of one of Morrison''s self-published poems and a transcript of a poetry reading recorded on what would be his final birthday. "Morrison wrote that ''we had a great visitation of energy,'' proclaimed that ''the ancient ones'' time has come again,'' urged readers to ''enter again the sweet forest/enter the hot dream.'' While he deliberately drove down toad-squirmy backroads of primal terror, ecstasy was often naked in the shotgun seat, spinning jeweled pinwheels, peeling a peach."--Tom Robbins, from his foreword, "Fireflies of the Apocalypse" Jim Morrison was thrust into what he considered accidental stardom in the 1960s as the lead vocalist of The Doors. Fifty years after his passing his legend endures, inspiring legions of fans and musicians. But this electrifying performer who lit the world on fire considered himself foremost a writer, a talent brilliantly demonstrated in his vast output of poetry and song lyrics. The Collected Works of Jim Morrison is the book Jim Morrison wanted to publish.
