Salve
I'm a really big fan of musicians' biographies and what Jerry Bloom delivered with his work is amazing.
to read biographies for me is always the sense that the people behind the musicians know something better: his career, his motivations, his background - anything that helps one understand the music behind it even better.
There are several types of biographies: some are a series of terrific stories you as ordinary people living on earth in this number so never expected to do. This includes books like Mötley Crües "The Dirt" or Lemmy Kilmister "White Line Fever" .
Others are written by outside adulation of legends. Such times have I by Guns N 'Roses tries to read and it was so terrible that I do not have the 30 page came out and had long since forgotten how the book was called for. For all the love for music must be in writing of such a work but always true ncoh a certain distance, which in this case went thoroughly into the pants.
And then there are biographies as just Jerry Bloom's "Black Knight"

Dieses Buch dringt absolut tief in dessen Leben ein und bringt jedes noch so kleine Detail hervor. Es ist mehr als erstaunlich, wie der Autor jede noch so kleine Anekdote ans Tageslicht gebracht hat und in den meisten Fällen auch gleich mit mehreren Quellen beweisen kann. Dieses Werk ist kein mal eben heruntergerissener Lebenslauf über den Erfinders des wohl berühmtesten Riffs aller Zeiten , sondern ein wahres Lebenswerk von 450 Seiten, die sicherlich nichts sind für jemanden, der einfach nur mal ein wenig über Ritchie Blackmore wissen möchte. Man muss schon eine gewisse Faszination an seiner Person oder wie in meinem Falle seiner Musik empfinden, so you have at this point his joy.
I want to warn everyone against this book, which has particularly interested in the person of Ritchie Blackmore: You can be disappointed really deep. His penchant for nasty tricks and his self-centeredness are known, but what you get to read this book takes the biscuit, sometimes from the ground. One can often only look with horror at the "Man in Black" and it is almost impossible to understand the motivations for many of his deeds.
makes to go into the contents of little sense, because everyone should be interested in the slightest with the major stations of Ritchie Blackmore and who are familiar band names such as Deep Purple or Rainbow say anything, the help is no longer available.
