Chris Rock (Modern Role Models)

For more than 20 years, comedian Chris Rock has skewered America's sacred cows with abandon. With foul-mouthed wit and a talent for being outrageous, Chris has forged a hugely successful career on stage and in the movies. His HBO specials "Bring the Pain" and "Bigger and Blacker" set new standards for 21st-century comedy; blockbusters like "Madagascar" and its sequel have proved him to be a consistent draw and have earned him millions of dollars. But Chris Rock's rise to fame has not been without setbacks: Box-office bombs and an Oscar-night controversy are stumbles in a varied career that continues to draw the attention of fans around the world. Through it all, Chris has remained committed to the charitable and political causes in which he believes. This new biography offers an in-depth look at a comedy legend in the making-what makes him tick and where his extraordinary career will go next.

Grunge Is Dead

Weaving together the definitive story of the Seattle music scene through a series of interviews with the people who were there, this book contains more than 130 interviews, along with essential background information. Digging deeper than other accounts, this history begins in the early 1960s, tracing the chain of events that spawned some of the greatest rock acts of all time in the 1990s, including Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, and Soundgarden. First-ever interviews include Eddie Vedder's take on Pearl Jam's history, a discussion among the members of Alice in Chains, and Layne Staley's mother's comments on her son's drug addiction and death. There is also plenty of information on less well-known aspects of the grunge scene, including the Riot Grrrl movement and the oft-overlooked but highly influential Seattle bands such as Mother Love Bone/Andy Wood, the Melvins, Screaming Trees, and Mudhoney. The end result is a comprehensive guide that includes a wealth of previously untold stories and offers a fresh and immediate approach to music history.
