Lovingly illustrated with thirty original and inspired works by esteemed art director, graphic designer, and illustrator Hugh Syme, Our House brings to life the joyful emotions of Graham Nash’s song “Our House.” The book conjures the warm feelings we all share in our hearts about a loving and caring home. Appropriate for all ages, Our House is at once a beautifully illustrated children’s book and a magical visual journey for readers of all ages, especially the millions of people around the world who embraced the song as their own.

From Graham Nash--the legendary musician and founding member of the iconic bands Crosby, Stills & Nash and The Hollies--comes a candid and riveting autobiography that belongs on the reading list of every classic rock fan. Graham Nash's songs defined a generation and helped shape the history of rock and roll--he's written over 200 songs, including such classic hits as "Carrie Anne," "On A Carousel," "Simple Man," "Our House," "Marrakesh Express," and "Teach Your Children." From the opening salvos of the British Rock Revolution to the last shudders of Woodstock, he has rocked and rolled wherever music mattered. Now Graham is ready to tell his story: his lower-class childhood in post-war England, his early days in the British Invasion group The Hollies; becoming the lover and muse of Joni Mitchell during the halcyon years, when both produced their most introspective and important work; meeting Stephen Stills and David Crosby and reaching superstardom with Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young; and his enduring career as a solo musician and political activist. Nash has valuable insights into a world and time many think they know from the outside but few have experienced at its epicenter, and equally wonderful anecdotes about the people around him: the Beatles, the Stones, Hendrix, Cass Elliot, Dylan, and other rock luminaries. From London to Laurel Canyon and beyond, "Wild Tales" is a revealing look back at an extraordinary life--with all the highs and the lows; the love, the sex, and the jealousy; the politics; the drugs; the insanity--and the sanity--of a magical era of music.

Graham Nash, geb. 1942 in Blackpool, war zunächst Gitarrist, Songwriter und Sänger bei den Hollies, bevor er England 1969 verließ und in New York die Gruppe Crosby, Stills & Nash mitbegründete. Nash ist aber nicht nur als Musiker bekannt geworden, er war immer auch als Photograph in der Szene dabei und ist ein ausgewiesener Kenner und leidenschaftlicher Sammler von Photographien. Für unser Buch hat er nun seine Lieblingsphotos aus der inzwischen 50-jährigen Geschichte des Rock und Pop zusammengetragen und mit persönlichen Anmerkungen kommentiert. Hier sind sie alle versammelt – neben Annie Leibovitz’ unvergesslichen Bildern aus ihrer Zeit beim Rolling Stone Magazine natürlich Anton Corbijn, Richard Avedon, Jim Marshall, Mick Rock und Dennis Hopper. In seiner Auswahl gelingt es Nash, auch den Sound der Musikphotographie zum Klingen zu bringen: mit Portraits von Joan Baez und Bob Dylan, Elvis on stage, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison und Kurt Cobain, einer Momentaufnahme seiner früheren Freundin Joni Mitchell, John Lee Hookers Hand und Bob Dylans Händen. Es sind Bilder, die am Rand von Konzerten entstanden und die Konzentration backstage oder das Abhängen im Hotelzimmer einfangen – alles in allem Rock-Ikonen vom Feinsten.

This is a collection of studio portraits of 175 wild creatures from baby leopards to parrots, bears, mandrills and many more, depicted with rare sensitivity, insight, humour and wonder. It will be of interest to animal lovers, photography fans and anyone interested in the world around us.

Eye to Eye gathers for the first time more than 150 photographs by rock musician Graham Nash. While best known as a founding member of the rock band Crosby, Stills, Nash, and (sometimes) Young, Nash also developed a parallel career as a photographer, collector, and pioneer of digital imaging. Shot between 1969 and 2003, Nash's photographs include revealing portraits of family and friends, images of life on the road, still lifes and landscapes, street photographs, and a unique series of self-portraits which often shows him reflected in windows and mirrors. Eye to Eye establishes Nash as a masterful visual artist with a keen eye for moments and scenes not immediately available to the common eye.

Traces the history of rock and roll music from the 1950's to the present day and discusses its changing styles and leading personalities.
