From Prince himself comes the brilliant coming-of-age-and-into-superstardom story of one of the greatest artists of all timefeaturing never-before-seen photos, original scrapbooks and lyric sheets, and the exquisite memoir he began writing before his tragic death.Prince was a musical genius, one of the most talented, beloved, accomplished, popular, and acclaimed musicians in pop history. But he wasn't only a musicianhe was also a startlingly original visionary with an imagination deep enough to whip up whole worlds, from the sexy, gritty funk paradise of his early records to the mythical landscape of Purple Rain to the psychedelia of Paisley Park. But his greatest creative act was turning Prince Rogers Nelson, born in Minnesota, into Prince, the greatest pop star of his era.The Beautiful Ones is the story of how Prince became Princea first-person account of a kid absorbing the world around him and then creating a persona, an artistic vision, and a life, before the hits and fame that would come to define him. The book is told in four parts. The first is composed of the memoir he was writing before his tragic death, pages that brings us into Prince's childhood world through his own lyrical prose. The second part takes us into Prince's early years as a musician, before his first album released, through a scrapbook of Prince's writing and photos. The third section shows us Prince's evolution through candid images that take us up to the cusp of his greatest achievement, which we see in the book's fourth section: his original handwritten treatment for Purple Rainthe final stage in Prince's self-creation, as he retells the autobiography we've seen in the first three parts as a heroic journey.The book is framed by editor Dan Piepenbrings riveting and moving introduction about his short but profound collaboration with Prince in his final daysa time when Prince was thinking deeply about how to reveal more of himself and his ideas to the world, while retaining the mystery and mystique hed so carefully cultivatedand annotations that provide context to each of the books images.This work is not just a tribute to Prince, but an original and energizing literary work, full of

Un minucioso estudio de Juan Ignacio Valenzuela de la figura del compositor francés Georges Delerue (Roubaix, Francia, 1925-Los Ángeles, Estados Unidos, 1992) que junto a Michel Legrand y Antoine Duhamel, fue el músico oficial de la Nouvelle Vague. El prestigio e influencia de los nuevos cineastas surgidos de las páginas de la mítica revista francesa Cahiers du Cinéma con los que trabajó, como François Truffaut, Jean-Luc Godard o Pierre Kast, y de jóvenes coetáneos que también se movían entre los márgenes de la modernidad cinematográfica, como Alain Resnais, Louis Malle o Agnès Varda, fue determinante para que Delerue fuera reclamado por otros ilustres directores como Ken Russell, Jack Clayton, Fred Zinnemann, John Huston, Bernardo Bertolucci o Juan Antonio Bardem y, tras la obtención del Oscar por su música para Un pequeño romance (George Roy Hill, 1979), por Hollywood, donde trabajó con cineastas de la talla de George Cukor, Bruce Beresford, Norman Jewison, Oliver Stone o Mike Nichols. Con Georges Delerue. De la Nouvelle Vague a Hollywood se pretende poner en valor la figura de Delerue, un músico para todas las artes, a partir de una rigurosa investigación que ha manejado información inédita y de las más de cincuenta entrevistas a profesionales de distintos ámbitos (música, producción, dirección, montaje, edición musical ) que trabajaron o tuvieron contacto personal con el compositor: Bruce Beresford (Crímenes del corazón, Su coartada), Marcel Bluwal (Les indes noires, El montacargas), Kevin Billington (Interludio de amor), James Burrows (Algo más que colegas), John Patrick Shanley (Joe contra el volcán), Piers Haggard (A summer Story), Pascal Kané (Liberty Belle), Tristram Powell (American Friends), Michael Toshiyuki Uno (The James Brady Story), Caleb Deschanel (Maestro en fugas), Harry Kümel (Malpertuis), Robert Dalva (Como uña y carne), Paul Hirsch (Magnolias de acero), Henri Lanoë (L Africain, Chouans!) o Robert Maniquis (productor de la restauración musical en 1986 del filme mudo Casanova), así como músicos como Christopher Young, Paul Chihara, Mark Isham, Frédéric Talgorn, Jean-Michel Bernard o Laurent Petitgirard. Sus testimonios contribuyen a configurar un certero retrato del eminente músico de Roubaix.

In his first and only official autobiography, music icon Elton John reveals the truth about his extraordinary life, which is also the subject of the film Rocketman. The result is Me - the joyously funny, honest and moving story of the most enduringly successful singer/songwriter of all time.Christened Reginald Dwight, he was a shy boy with Buddy Holly glasses who grew up in the London suburb of Pinner and dreamed of becoming a pop star. By the age of twenty-three, he was performing his first gig in America, facing an astonished audience in his bright yellow dungarees, a star-spangled T-shirt and boots with wings. Elton John had arrived and the music world would never be the same again.His life has been full of drama, from the early rejection of his work with song-writing partner Bernie Taupin to spinning out of control as a chart-topping superstar; from half-heartedly trying to drown himself in his LA swimming pool to disco-dancing with the Queen; from friendships with John Lennon, Freddie Mercury and George Michael to setting up his AIDS Foundation. All the while, Elton was hiding a drug addiction that would grip him for over a decade.In Me Elton also writes powerfully about getting clean and changing his life, about finding love with David Furnish and becoming a father. In a voice that is warm, humble and open, this is Elton on his music and his relationships, his passions and his mistakes. This is a story that will stay with you, by a living legend.
