Truly ground- and rule-breaking voices have been drowned out by pop-by-numbers acts in more recent years, and in Rebel Heroes, Huey Morgan investigates where music started to lose its soul and why the lessons of those renegade spirits of yesteryear are still so vital.The book is steeped in Huey's love for and knowledge of music and is full of personal anecdotes and stories of some of the greatest musicians to have graced us with their talent.Disclosure: As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
