商品簡介
From
the author of the definitive biographies of Stan Lee and bootleg king George
Remus comes an exciting, eminently entertaining account of America's favorite
rock band--the Doors--and the end of a tumultuous era in American history
writ large. Shrouded
in mystery, pop culture history, and the swirling psychedelic sounds of the
Sixties, the Doors have captivated listeners across seven decades. Jim Morrison--haunted, beautiful, and ultimately doomed--transformed from rock god to
American icon. With each successive generation of rock fans, the Doors become
more popular and transcendent, yet the band's full significance is buried
underneath layers of mythology and folklore.
Called
"one of the greatest narrative nonfiction writers and storytellers,"
award-winning cultural historian Bob Batchelor presents Roadhouse Blues:
Morrison, the Doors, and Death Days of the Sixties, an enthralling, epic
tale of one of rock's (and America's) most significant periods as the Age of
Aquarius gave way to a new age of mayhem, presidential misdeeds, and murder.
Batchelor's fresh perspective combines cultural history, musical and lyrical
analysis, and a broad stroke of pop culture mythos, offering a fresh perspective
on a vital moment in the contemporary world.
Candid,
authoritative, and utterly absorbing, Roadhouse Blues is a biography of
a man, a band, and an era that set the tone for the contemporary world. Beyond
the mythology, the hype, and the mystique around Morrison's untimely death,
this book takes readers on a rollercoaster ride, examining the impact the band
had on America as the nation leered from decadence to debauchery.
"We're
gonna have a real good time!"
