"This is Leibovitz's photography of a broad slice of American music: from R.L. Burnside to Puff Daddy, from Johnny Cash to Aretha Franklin, from System of a Down to Lucinda Williams. It slices across genres and time. It's certainly not authoritative, but then this sort of work never can be.
It is, however, compelling. Most musicians here have dedicated their lives to music. Some are incredibly famous and wealthy, others are largely unknown. Even within the same level of fame, there is great diversity. Many musicians are shown with their families, in their homes or tour buses. The disparity is fascinating--it shows us that there are myriad meaning to 'music' in America.
There are short essays from a few musicians (including a seemingly ADD-addled Ryan Adams--or maybe he just writes like that) interspersed in the photos, and these are interesting, but not sensational. There are also one-paragraph bios for all the photos from Leibovitz which add some background, but they could have used an editor.
Ultimately, the book sets out to produce a sketch of music in America, and though this sounds like an incredibly vague goal, it accomplishes this."
"An awesome collection of Annie Leibovitz's music based work which includes a lot of her work for Rolling Stone. I've loved her work since I was in high school so adding this to my book collection was a must."
