The Words and Music of Patti Smith

Joe Tarr

4.9/5 (26138 ratings)

Description:The legends of the music industry are consistently among the most revered celebrities in popular culture. We know everything about them - who they dated, where they played, and how they died. However, what they sought to tell us through their music often remains undiscovered or forgotten. The Praeger Singer-Songwriter Collection provides critical analysis and commentary on the work of such important artists as John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix, Paul Simon, Joni Mitchell, Bob Marley, Frank Zappa, Tupac Shakur, and David Bowie, and does so in the hope that, from behind such legendary faces, voices can again emerge.Patti Smith's 1975 album, Horses, first established her as a major artist, and her impact and importance have only grown since that powerful and provocative venture. She has redefined what it means for women to be rock performers, and blazed trails for many other musicians - both male and female - to follow. Individual chapters here examine individual albums and account for parallel developments in Smith's life. Tarr concludes his work with an examination of the influence Smith has had on pop culture and on rock 'n' roll in general. Patti Smith is a guarded and private person, and little has been written about her. In this searching analysis of Smith's life and work, Tarr has filled that gap and provided an essential guide to the iconic artist's career.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
