Run a Quick Search on "Hotel California" by Barney Hoskyns to Browse Related Products:Browse more products related to "Hotel California"Browse more products related to "Barney Hoskyns"Publisher's noteIn the late sixties and early seventies, Los Angeles was a hotbed of musical creativity–the home base of Joni Mitchell, the Eagles, James Taylor, Linda Ronstadt, Jackson Browne, and Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young, among many others. Now, drawing on exclusive interviews with many of the leading players, music journalist Barney Hoskyns recreates the excitement, ferment, and energy of those years. We see the genesis of Crosby, Stills, and Nash at Joni Mitchell’s house in Laurel Canyon. We see the Eagles implode in backstage fistfights after the success of their huge hit album Hotel California. And we get the real story on David Geffen and the other money men who nurtured, bankrolled–and some say corrupted–the L.A. music scene. Filled with revealing anecdotes that chronicle the drug-fueled chaos, bed-hopping antics, and enduring musical achievements of the era, Hotel California is a must-read for classic rock fans everywhere. Barney Hoskyns (London, UK) is a British journalist who has corresponded for New Musical Express from Los Angeles and worked as MOJO’s U.S. correspondent. He is the author of several previous books about music and Hollywood. AnnotationBritish music writer Barney Hoskyns's HOTEL CALIFORNIA describes the early years of the major players of the 1970s Californian music scene--the Eagles, Joni Mitchell, Jackson Browne, and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, plus many more--and tells the story not only of their subsequent careers but of the behind-the-scenes machinations necessary for them to achieve their success. Hoskyns also depicts the truncated careers of such peripheral yet still influential figures as Gram Parsons and Judee Sill. Delving deep beneath the sun-kissed surface of Californian hedonism to find the warring factions and bloated egos locked in struggle below, Hoskyns's study is a valuable corrective to the myth of easy-going California rock & roll.
