El rock de la muerte

los discos póstumos como legado musical de grandes artistas

Manzano, Alberto

Six essential musicians to understand the complex evolution of rock history -Bowie, Cohen, Mercury, Cash, Harrison and Zevon-, to the extent that their influential works show extraordinary artistic qualities, as original as they are conflicting. Obviously, the artistic peculiarities of these six musicians are narrated in the pages of this book, but, beyond the musical canons and record journeys that brought them together at the same time, there is a reason why they have been brought together in this conceptual work , and it is the knowledge they had of the imminent departure from this world after being diagnosed with a terminal illness. Faced with such certainty, Bowie, Cohen, Mercury, Cash, Harrison and Zevon felt the urgent need to reach a state of acceptance of misfortune by articulating their conscience to the gear of death, while, in their desire to share a musical testament to their audience, they wrote the songs for a masterful posthumous album. It was his last invincible hand in the game of life before he got up from the table and left the game.
