Complete Lyrics for 175 Songs
Rap music's place within the global pantheon of pop culture was forever solidified when Webster's decided to add the slang term “def” to the dictionary. Once considered an outsider art form, the music that originated from the streets of New York City has now become the new rock'n'roll, a major force dictating the trends of the day. Everything from fashion and advertising to literature and film has been touched by rap's infectious rhyme patterns and rhythmic interplay, making it one of the foremost musical genres of the era.

At the core of this cultural fascination with rap music are the lyrics, which run the gamut from clever rhyme patterns and lighthearted party fare to gangsta vérité, providing a glimpse into inner city life for those far removed from it. The end result of this raw street slang bathed in thumping beats has been the creation and ongoing evolution of an art form that speaks to all walks of life. The full spectrum of this vibrant genre is represented in this book by nearly 100 artists, including: Cypress Hill • Dr. Dre • Missy Elliot • Eminem • 50 Cent • Ice Cube • Ja Rule • Wyclef Jean • LL Cool J • Lil' Kim • Ludacris • Method Man • Nas • Nelly • Notorious B.I.G. • Outkast • Public Enemy • P Diddy • Run-DMC • 2Pac • Wu-Tang Clan • and many others.

JIMI HENDRIX - THE LYRICS  HL 00330982

Jimi Hendrix was such an extraordinary guitarist, it can be easy to forget that just as much passion, soul and precision went into his lyrics. Inspired by Bob Dylan, Hendrix was a fearless lyrical innovator, willing to let his imagination guide him to landscapes of words hitherto unexplored within the realms of pop music.

This extraordinarily personal book includes numerous examples of Jimi's handwritten lyrics, often scribbled on hotel stationery, and photos of Jimi accompanying every song.

From the existential euphoria of “I Don't Live Today” to the elusive beauty of “Little Wing” to the psychedelic blues of “My Friend” to the otherworldly “1983 (... A Merman I Should Turn to Be),” the lyrics of Jimi Hendrix remain among the greatest in the pantheon of rock, infused with the same inventiveness, virtuosity and courage that informed his guitar playing.

Readers will of course also thrill to see such Hendrix classics as “Purple Haze,” “Foxey Lady,” “Voodoo Chile,” “The Wind Cries Mary,” “Dolly Dagger” and “Are You Experienced?”. Jimi Hendrix: The Lyrics is sure to be one of the leading gift books of the season and a perennial favorite for Hendrix fans for years to come.

Hardcover with full-color and b/w photos and illustrations throughout.

    Gathered together in one volume for the first time, here are all of the incomparable song lyrics of Irving Berlin – the lyrics of more than 1,200 songs, 400 of which have never before appeared in print – along with anecdotal, historical, and musicological commentary and dozens of photographs. Berlin came from a poor immigrant family and began his career as a singing waiter, but by the time he was nineteen he was publishing his songs and quickly found fame with “Alexander's Ragtime Band” in 1911. In the extraordinary six decades that followed, Berlin wrote one popular hit after another: Blue Skies • Always • Cheek to Cheek • White Christmas • God Bless America • There's No Business Like Show Business • and many more.

    He also wrote a number of the classics of musical theater's Golden Age, climaxing with Annie Get Your Gun. He penned three Astaire and Rogers films – Top Hat, Carefree, and Follow the Fleet – as well as the scores of Holiday Inn, Easter Parade, and other films. The breadth of his accomplishment is staggering.
