- Like a Rolling Stone : a memoir / by Wenner, Jann,author.;
"Alongside such legends as Bob Dylan, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Elton John, Bono, Bruce Springsteen, and Paul McCartney was one man who knew them all - Jann Wenner. From growing up in San Rafael, California, to dropping out of Berkeley and creating Rolling Stone with $7,500 borrowed from friends and family, Wenner's love for rock 'n' roll led him to create one of the great cultural touchstones of an era. From dropping acid with the icons of classic rock, to covering politics and working with the greatest journalists of his day, Jann Wenner was at the center of everything that the rock generation stood for. As a born storyteller, he writes vividly of Mick, John and Yoko, Bono, Jackie O, Tom Wolfe, Hunter S. Thompson, and so many, many others"--- Subjects: Biographies.; Autobiographies.; Personal narratives.; Wenner, Jann.; Rolling stone (San Francisco, Calif.); Editors; Publishers and publishing;

- Scattershot : life, music, Elton, and me / by Taupin, Bernie,author.;
"An evocative, clear-eyed, and revealing memoir by Bernie Taupin, the lyrical master and long-time collaborator of Elton John. This is the memoir music fans have been waiting for. Half of one of the greatest creative partnerships in popular music, Bernie Taupin is the man who wrote the lyrics for Elton John, who conceived the ideas that spawned countless hits, and sold millions and millions of records. Together, they were a duo, a unit, an immovable object. Their extraordinary, half-century-and-counting creative relationship has been chronicled in biopics (like 2019's Rocketman) and even John's own autobiography, Me. But Taupin, a famously private person, has kept his own account of their adventures close to his chest, until now. An exciting, multi-decade whirlwind told in a non-linear yet grounded narrative, Scattershot whizzes around the world as we ride shotgun with Bernie on his extraordinary life. We visit Los Angeles with him and Elton on the cusp of global fame. We spend time with him in Australia almost in residency at an infamous rock 'n' roll hotel in an endless blizzard of drugs. And we spend late, late night hours with John Lennon, with Bob Marley, and hanging with Frank Sinatra. And beyond the world of popular music, we witness memorable encounters with writers like Graham Greene, painters like Andy Warhol and Salvador Dali, and scores of notable misfits, miscreants, eccentrics, and geniuses, known and unknown. Even if they're not famous in their own right, they are stars on the page, and we discover how they inspired the indelible lyrics to songs such as "Tiny Dancer," "Candle in the Wind," "Bennie and The Jets," and so many more"--- Subjects: Biographies.; Autobiographies.; Taupin, Bernie.; John, Elton; Taupin, Bernie; Composers; Lyricists;
