Elvis Presley is alive and well, and living in Kalamazoo. Elvis Presley is alive and well, preaching the gospel in Arkansas. The man that died in 1977 was one of Elvis' brothers. Did you know he was a triplet? Elvis faked his death and has been working for the FBI ever since. Elvis communicates with parapsychologists from beyond the grave. Elvis is Cherokee. Elvis is Welsh. Elvis is Scottish. Elvis is German. Elvis is...... Elvis is all these things and more. An A to Z of Elvis researched the far-flung corners of Elvisology to dig out some of the more out-there theories and beliefs about the legendary singer. It is a book that shines a spotlight on some of the most controversial and contradictory 'facts' floating around about The King, and in doing so investigates how these proclamations hold up to scrutiny. This is no ordinary rehash of the same old Presley story: that's been told a million times. There is a reason that An A to Z of Elvis is subtitled Infrequently Asked Questions. So dive in at your leisure: there are layers upon layers of information, oodles of off-the-wall assertions and a bunch of good old mysteries to ponder within these beautifully illustrated pages. There's one thing we can all agree on, though: Elvis Presley is a true legend.

The rise of Kasabian has been a phenomenal one, driven by a mix of self-belief, hard touring and hard living, all from humble beginnings in Leicestershire villages. Their self-titled 2004 debut LP sold over 700,000 in the UK alone, and the band wowed crowds in festivals at Glastonbury, Reading/Leeds and T In The Park that year, as well as touring the US alongside Noel Gallagher. Their second album, Empire, was released in September 2006 to great acclaim and surged straight to Number One in the UK charts, selling to date over a million copies and they won Best Live Act in NME's 2007 awards.Outspoken frontman Serge Pizzorno's pronouncements as to the state of the popular music scene have hit a real chord with the music buying public as the band continues to ruffle feathers and break down barriers wherever they go. Standing on the verge of releasing their third album, the group look set to continue on their quest to achieve the worldwide fame of their inspirations of Oasis, the Stone Roses and Primal Scream. Through a series of exclusive interviews with contemporaries and those involved in the band's remarkable rise, the tale of Kasabian is told in its entirety for the first time.
Bruce Dickinson, Sänger der legendären Heavy-Metal-Band Iron Maiden, ist eine faszinierende Persönlichkeit. Geboren am 7. August 1958, hat er ein Hochschulstudium in Geschichte abgeschlossen und arbeitet als Pilot für eine Fluggesellschaft. Zudem war er Mitglied der englischen Nationalmannschaft im Degenfechten, moderiert eine eigene BBC-Radioshow und ist Autor zweier Romane. Sein Chef, Steve Harris, bemerkte einmal: „In der Zeit, in der ich ein Buch lese, schreibt Bruce eins.“ Dickinson lebt nach dem Motto: „Wer rastet, der rostet.“ Aktuell arbeitet er an einem Kinofilm über den englischen Okkultisten Aleister Crowley. Der Biograph Joe Shooman widmet sich in seinem Werk auch Dickinsons musikalischem Werdegang und enthüllt zahlreiche Geheimnisse. Von seinen ersten Schritten bei The Shots über die Band Speed, die mit ihrer 1980er Single 'Man In The Street' für Raritäten sorgte, bis hin zu Samson und natürlich Iron Maiden – kein Detail bleibt unberücksichtigt. Shooman führte exklusive Interviews mit Wegbegleitern wie dem Maiden-Produzenten Tony Platt und anderen wichtigen Persönlichkeiten der Musikszene. Abgerundet wird das Buch durch eine umfassende Discographie von Bruce Dickinson, die sämtliche Solo-Veröffentlichungen und Gastauftritte umfasst.
