Flaptekst boek met over alle Johnny Cash songteksten

Every lyric to every song that iconic American artist Johnny Cash ever wrote. This is the complete, comprehensive catalogue of Cash’s 55-year career as a songwriter, including nearly 500 songs.

Johnny Cash, ‘The Man in Black’, is one of America’s most prolific and influential songwriters, speaking through his songs to the soul of the nation while capturing the victories and losses that marked his own life. This comprehensive and definitive book collects – for the first time – every one of his song lyrics alongside never-before-seen reproductions of handwritten pages from his own notebooks.

Organised chronologically and with critical commentary on themes that appear throughout his work, including a foreword from his son, John Carter Cash, this book catalogues Cash’s range as a poet and storyteller. It traces his evolution from his earliest compositions to his last love song, through periods of personal struggle, political activism and tests of faith. What emerges is an unprecedented portrait of Johnny Cash as a timeless American artist.

Waardering voor het boek van Mark Lanegan

  • Lanegan schrijft met een aan zelfhaat grenzende eerlijkheid, die we in de recente literatuur kennen van Karl Ove Knausgård (★★★★★, Gijsbert Kramer, De Volkskrant)

Flaptekst van de autobiografie van Mark Lanegan

From the back of the van to the front of the bar, from the hotel room to the emergency room, onstage, backstage, and everywhere in between, Sing Backwards and Weep reveals the abrasive reality beneath one of the most romanticized decades in rock history-from a survivor who lived to tell the tale.

When Mark Lanegan first arrived in Seattle in the mid-1980s, he was just “an arrogant, self-loathing redneck waster seeking transformation through rock ‘n’ roll.” Within less than a decade, he would rise to fame as the front man of the Screaming Trees, then fall from grace as a low-level crack dealer and a homeless heroin addict, all the while watching some of his closest friends rocket to the pinnacle of popular music.

In Sing Backwards and Weep, Lanegan takes readers back to the sinister, needle-ridden streets of Seattle, to an alternative music scene that was simultaneously bursting with creativity and saturated with drugs. He tracks the tumultuous rise and fall of the Screaming Trees, from a brawling, acid-rock bar band to world-famous festival favourites with an enduring legacy that still resonates. Lanegan’s personal struggles with addiction, culminating in homelessness, petty crime, and the tragic deaths of his closest friends, is documented with a painful honesty and pathos.

Gritty, gripping, and unflinchingly raw, Sing Backwards and Weep is a book about more than just an extraordinary singer who watched his dreams catch fire and incinerate the ground beneath his feet. Instead, it’s about a man who learned how to drag himself from the wreckage, dust off the ashes, and keep living and creating.
