   - DIE SIE HÖREN SOLLTEN, BEVOR DAS LEBEN VORBEI IST ('1001 Songs You Must Hear Before You Die'). From Tin Pan Alley to the Brill Building, Bob Dylan to Kurt Cobain, and Joni Mitchell to Amy Winehouse, gifted songwriters have crafted a cherished body of music that has become part of our lives. Imagine the Fifties without the magical clamor of 'Tutti Frutti' and 'Hound Dog', the Seventies without the anthemic 'Le Freak' and 'Anarchy in the UK' or the Noughties without the leftfield pop of 'Toxic' or 'Crazy'.
   This book picks through nearly a century of music to bring you an inspiring selection of some of the greatest recordings ever made.
   An English version was published in 2015

Edition Olms, 960 pages. Preface by Tony Visconti, general editors Robert Dimery and Bruno Macdonald.
