Phil Collins' Face Value was more than a solo debut - it was the sound of private heartbreak becoming one of the defining records of the early 1980s. Before the stadiums, before No Jacket Required, before the global superstardom, Phil Collins stepped out from behind Genesis and revealed something raw, wounded, strange, soulful, and unforgettable. Built from the emotional collapse of his first marriage, Face Value transformed pain into atmosphere, silence into tension, and drums into emotional thunder. This book explores the album in full: from the haunting power of "In the Air Tonight" to the aching restraint of "If Leaving Me Is Easy," from the soul-pop energy of "I Missed Again" to the experimental textures of "Droned," "Hand in Hand," and the bold Beatles cover "Tomorrow Never Knows." Across 35 detailed chapters, this volume examines how Face Value brought together Collins' musical loves - Genesis-style drama, Motown grooves, Earth, Wind & Fire-inspired horns, Beatles experimentation, and modern studio production - while creating the template for his extraordinary 1980s success. Inside, you'll discover: The emotional story behind Face Value as one of rock's great breakup albums. How "In the Air Tonight" became one of the most iconic songs of the decade. Why Collins' drum sound helped reshape 1980s pop and rock production. How the album separated Collins' solo identity from Genesis. Why Face Value remains his most emotionally revealing and artistically fascinating record. Raw, intimate, experimental, accessible, and powerful, Face Value remains Phil Collins' classic statement of heartbreak, survival, and reinvention. For fans of Phil Collins, Genesis, 1980s pop, classic albums, and deep musical storytelling, this book offers a complete journey into the record that turned a private wound into a timeless solo masterpiece.

The last major interview with John Lennon and Yoko Ono, conducted by New York Times bestselling author David Sheff, featuring a new introduction that reflects on the fortieth anniversary of Lennon's death. Originally published in Playboy in 1981 just after John Lennon's assassination, All We Are Saying is a rich, vivid, complete interview with Lennon and Yoko Ono, covering art, creativity, the music business, childhood beginnings, privacy, how the Beatles broke up, how Lennon and McCartney collaborated (or didn't) on songs, parenthood, money, feminism, religion, and insecurity. Of course, at the heart of the conversation is the deep romantic and spiritual bond between Lennon and Ono. Sheff's insightful questions set the tone for Lennon's responses and his presence sets the scene, as he goes through the kitchen door of Lennon and Yoko's apartment in the Dakota and observes moments at Lennon's famous white piano and the rock star's work at the stove, making them grilled cheese sandwiches. Sheff's new introduction looks at his forty-year-old interview afresh, and examines how what he learned from Lennon has resonated with him as a man and a parent. This is a knockout interview: unguarded, wide-ranging, alternately frisky and intense.

Experience a full color, oversized Hard cover book that contains all of Barbra Streisand's albums from her first to her most recent with in depth analysis of every song and cover. A complete discography filled with photos of the greatest female vocalist of all-time. Updated for 2025. On February 25, 1963, Columbia Records released The Barbra Streisand Album. The first song was "Cry Me a River," and with that a star was born. Barbra Joan Streisand had a zany personality backed by a talent that Stephen Sondheim once described as "one of the two or three best voices in the world of singing songs," adding "It's not just her voice but her intensity, her passion and control." Harold Arlen, another of her favorite composers, commented, "This young lady . . . has a stunning future." With all-male rock groups like the Beatles, the Beach Boys, and the Four Seasons ruling the charts, no one expected a twenty-year-old female singer from Brooklyn to not just hit No. 1, but repeat that accomplishment every decade that followed all the way to the next millennium and become the best-selling female recording artist of all time. Now, for the first time ever, comes the definitive book on the extensive recording career of this towering cultural icon, the Funny Girl considered by many to be the most talented singer of her generation. Barbra Streisand The Music takes readers on a journey through every album, soundtrack, and single Streisand has released over the past sixty years. Our guide on this musical tour is Matt Howe, who has run Barbra Archives, the definitive Streisand-themed website, since 2003. He also has assisted Team Streisand on her Release Me album series. Besides analysis of every studio, live concert, and official compilation release, the book contains over three hundred FULL-COLOR photos from the albums, press kits, and Streisand herself. Also included are features on both Streisand's signature songs ("People," "You Don't Bring Me Flowers," "Evergreen," "The Way We Were," and "Don't Rain on My Parade") and on her longtime collaborators (Sondheim, Marty Erlichman, Alan and Marilyn Bergman, and others.) No gossip. No dirt. Just a deep dive into over seventy albums from The Greatest Star, including her latest releases. New interviews with Jay Landers (who also wrote the Foreword), Richard Jay-Alexander, and William Ross. They all have worked along side Streisand for decades and bring an insight to how the songs were recorded. This updated version has new photos, comments taken from Streisand's autobiography, and brand new insights from Matt Howe.
