Tribute: Men in Music: Prince, David Bowie, Jerry Garcia & Freddie Mercury, bd

This extraordinary graphic novel collection is a tribute to the lives and accomplishments of some of music’s brightest stars, including Prince Rogers Nelson, who started a musical revolution, challenging even the “King of Pop,” Michael Jackson, for chart supremacy during the 1980s. We also explore the life of the chameleon of the music industry, David Bowie, one of the most influential artists of any generation, constantly reinventing himself while defying convention. In addition, counterculture icon and non-conformist Jerome John “Jerry” Garcia is best known for his distinctive guitar playing and thirty-three-year history with the Grateful Dead. And last but certainly not least, Freddie Mercury, the British musician, singer, and songwriter, best known as the lead vocalist and lyricist of the rock band Queen whose tumultuous life of excess cemented his fame. The book chronicles their meteoric rise to dominance in the pop music scene and collects some of TidalWave’s bestselling issues.
