''This is the most glorious of books. I am besotted by the life I never knew he had.'' -Elton John
Half of one of the greatest creative partnerships in popular music, Bernie Taupin is the man who wrote the lyrics for Elton John, who conceived the ideas that spawned countless hits, and sold millions and millions of records.
An exciting, multi-decade whirlwind, Scattershot: Life, Music, Elton and Me whizzes around the world as we ride shotgun with Bernie on his extraordinary life. Visiting New York with him and Elton on the cusp of Global Fame, late night hours with John Lennon, Bob Marley and Frank Sinatra, and almost in residency at an infamous rock ''n'' rock hotel in Australia, in a blizzard of drugs. Beyond the world of popular music, we witness memorable encounters with writers like Graham Greene, painters like Andy Warhol, and scores of notable misfits, eccentrics and geniuses, known and unknown. Unique and utterly compelling, Scattershot will transport the reader into the vivid imaginings of one of music''s most legendary lyricists.
This beautiful, exclusive collector''s edition of Scattershot is a bespoke design perfect for Elton and Bernie fans.
