A l'arrière d'une limousine ou au fond d'un studio d'enregistrement, dans l'immense appartement sur Central Park ou un petit café de Columbus Avenue, David Sheff a laissé défiler la bande de son magnéto, réalisant, jour après jour pendant trois semaines, ces entretiens en profondeur avec le couple Lennon/Ono. C'était à l'automne 1980, et l'ancien Beatle se sentait renaître. Après plusieurs années de silence, il voulait parler, faire partager sa joie de composer un nouveau disque, Double Fantasy, d'élever son fils Sean, de vivre et rêver avec Yoko, à quarante ans. " Nous n'avons pas besoin de publicité, nous avons besoin d'expliquer ce que nous faisons... " D'où cette longue mise au point, véritable retour sur son expérience des années 1960-1970 à travers le vécu du couple : l'évolution des rôles féminin/masculin, l'éducation, la famille recomposée, les crises personnelles (la dérive alcoolique de Lennon au début de la décennie, la pratique du fameux " cri primal " du Dr Janov...), l'exposition médiatique, les limites de l'engagement, la création artistique, ou encore l'impossible reformation des Beatles, dont Lennon s'attache à passer en revue tout le catalogue, expliquant la genèse des chansons avec beaucoup de franchise. Pas de faux-semblants. Ici, plus qu'une icône, on retrouve, saisi dans son intimité, un couple terriblement sympathique, spirituel, passionné et drôle. " Ce sera le livre de référence ! " lançait John à David Sheff. Deux mois plus tard, le 8 décembre, Lennon était abattu, et ce livre prenait la forme d'un testament.

Updated Edition-If you ever needed proof that a magazine can have a love affair with a musician you're holding it in your hands. For DownBeat the preeminent publication of the jazz world Miles Dewey Davis was one of its most cherished subjects. Since it began covering the jazz scene in 1939 no other artist has been more diligently chronicled in its pages than Davis.The beauty of this collection is seeing the development of an artist over time. The reviews of his music go from quietly introducing a new talent to revering perhaps the greatest jazz artist of his generation. The feature articles begin with a very young very polite Davis lamenting I've worked so little. Icould probably tell you where I was playing any night in the last three years. As he develops the interviews show Davis gaining confidence and stature showing swagger and becoming the over-the-top say-it-like-it-is showman that made every interview an event.The Miles Davis Reader compiles more than 200 news stories feature articles and reviews by some of the greatest writers in jazz into one volume. It delivers a patchwork of his words and music - in the moment as they happened. With several lengthy features added along with a dozen new photographs this new edition is a beautiful series of snapshots a year-by-year ride through the many phases of Davis as an artist and as a man.
