Lightning In a Bottle: A Book Series On the Most Important Rock Albums In Music History Album #83 the Guess Who Share the Land (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781387491445)

For far too long the Guess Who have been "written off", especially in America, as nothing more than a prolific singles band, but it does not come near to telling the whole truth. Two of their outstanding albums have found their way into this Book Series, including American Woman & this stunning achievement, Share the Land. Every single song is of the finest quality, with many becoming Rock Classics. The music ranges from straight-ahead Rock & Roll, to the Blues, Jazz, R&B and even Country, plus the lyrics were written in the aftermath of the Massacre at Kent State University. Here, Burton Cummings was at his very best laying out most of the ways in which the Status Quo has us trapped into living our lives for the benefit of society and not ourselves...all the while looking up towards God and wondering why? This book digs deep into both the music & lyrics and helps the reader to understand why this brilliant collection of songs is so very important for humanity, especially today in this upside down world!
