For the Music Lover in Your Life:

Here are three outstanding staff picks for the music lover in your life.

Rob Sheffield
Embarrassingly funny and endearing, this book charts Rob's awkward teenage years to adulthood track by track. Spliced with his intrinsic love of music, Rob's casual style makes it easy for kids of the 80's to commiserate with his stories of summer jobs, school dances, and just what constitutes “new wave.”

Andrew Zuckerman
A must-have for any music lover. Fifty musicians from all genres explain in their own words what music means to them. Features awesome photographs and an access link to Zuckerman's “The Music Film.”
-MG


Leiber, Jerry
In the early 1950s a couple of Jewish teenagers with a shared love of the blues start writing songs together and become one of the most successful songwriting teams in music history. From their first record with the Robins (who later became the Coasters) to a smash Broadway musical based on their songs, here is their story in their own words.
