They were some of rock 'n' roll's brightest stars and greatest innovators. Now the records, the photos, and the memories are all that remain.

Name any kind of tragedy and someone in the rock cannon has lived through it - or not. This encyclopedic collection delivers the full story behind the untimely ends, freak accidents, psychotic fans, deadly concerts, hard drugs, hard time, and other calamitous events that have sent rock's royalty down in flames.

Chronicling the demise of legends including Elvis Presley, John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix, Kurt Cobain, Janis Joplin, Karen Carpenter, Marvin Gaye, and Buddy Holly, 'Casualties Of Rock' also records more obscure catastrophes, such as the disappearance of a member of the Yardbirds singer Keith Relf.

Investigating "curses" that plague the Beach Boys, the Grateful Dead, the Pretenders, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers, this unique book explores the impact of countless horrendous happenings in the history of rock, and pays tribute to the stars who burned too brightly for too short a time. Packed with photos and fatal facts, it is an essential read for any music fan.
