Pro miliony fanoušků bude AC/DC navždy představovat nejlepší hardrockovou skupinu všech dob. Kapelu AC/DC založili bratři Angus a Malcolm Youngové v roce 1973 v australském Sydney. Srdce mnoha svých fanoušků si získala svým rytmickým, ale zároveň živelným pojetím rockové hudby, které je pro její skladby dodnes typické. O jejím úspěchu svědčí i více než 200 milionů prodaných alb a koncerty, které jsou vyprodané dlouho dopředu. Za více než čtyřicet let trvající úspěšnou kariéru zažila však kapela i pády – to když v roce 1980 předčasně zemřel její zpěvák Bon Scott. Bratři Youngové však vytrvali a s novým zpěvákem Brianem Johnsonem ve svých řadách pokračovali v úžasné rockové jízdě, jejíž plody dodnes uchvacují posluchače napříč generacemi. Uznávaný hudební publicista Paul Elliott vzdává prostřednictvím této knihy, obsahující více než 250 raritních fotografií, hold jedné z nejpopulárnějších hudebních formací rockové historie.

Guns n' Roses emerged from Los Angeles in the 1980s with a reputation for hard-hitting music and a riotous rock 'n' roll lifestyle that earned them the title of "The most dangerous band in the world." Their first album, Appetite for Destruction, took the music industry by storm when it was released in 1987. Rock writer, Paul Elliott has interviewed Guns N' Roses many times since their debut, and brings real insight to this unofficial exploration of the group: its music, its success, and its struggles over the last 30 years. And now, with three of the original band members reunited, he brings the incredible story of one of the world's hardest-rocking bands up-to-date

From their formation in Sydney, Australia in 1973 by brothers Angus and Malcolm Young, AC/DC have made the most visceral and single-minded rock, and it has served them well, with more than 200 million records sold. The basic blueprint that AC/DC laid down on their early albums with Bon Scott-hard, no-nonsense, riff-driven rock-n-roll has sustained them all the way through to their latest album, 2014's Rock Or Bust. Angus and Malcolm held AC/DC together after the death of singer Bon Scott in 1980. And now, so many years later, even without Malcolm around, Angus doesn't look like he's about to give up on the band. Illustrated with rare and unseen photographs, this handsome biography from an acclaimed rock biographer is a fitting salute to rock's royal family.

Ever since its inception, British cinema has been obsessed with crime and the criminal. One of the first narrative films to be produced in Britain, the Hepworth's 1905 short Rescued by Rover, was a fast-paced, quick-edited tale of abduction and kidnap, and the first British sound film, Alfred Hitchcock's Blackmail (1930), centered on murder and criminal guilt. For a genre seemingly so important to the British cinematic character, there is little direct theoretical or historical work focused on it. The Britain of British cinema is often written about in terms of national history, ethnic diversity, or cultural tradition, yet very rarely in terms of its criminal tendencies and dark underbelly. This volume assumes that, to know how British cinema truly works, it is necessary to pull back the veneer of the costume piece, the historical drama, and the rom-com and glimpse at what is underneath. For every Brief Encounter (1945) there is a Brighton Rock (2010), for every Notting Hill (1999) there is a Long Good Friday (1980).
