Given the information on the brightest women in rock and roll since the 1960s to the present, this book has everything you can learn about the most violent women in history - from Janis Joplin and Suzy Quatro to Courtney Love and Pink.
Taking into account the detailed biographies and deep critical analysis, this is a detailed and individual view of the experience, adventures and musical passions of these extraordinary and talented women whose wild vocals and scenic antics make them legendary rock and roll. Through personal emotional pain, addiction to drugs, public humiliation and intimate nightmares, these rockers went on stage to take the musical world by storm - often faced with immense personal adversity, pressure and searching glances that no doubt destroyed the souls of mere mortals. From Madonna, who illegally lived in New York for years, before selling 250 million records, to Tina Turner, who suffered severe beatings from her husband and then rose on the stage with broken ribs and bruises - all these women overcame enormous difficulties to create the very Memorable music, which the world of fate has ever heard. Their inspirational and entertaining stories, gathered here in a lavishly illustrated and thoroughly worked book, provide an influx of adrenaline and an indisputably memorable journey into the history of rock and roll.
