    Reseña del libro "The Youngs"

    #1 MUSIC BOOK OF 2014 - AllMusicBooks.com (USA)BEST BOOKS OF 2014 - PRI Public Radio International (USA)"Fink's ability to overcome the Youngs' code of Scottish-Australian omertà is impressive... a cut above other AC/DC tomes, and Fink knows it."- Classic Rock (UK) 9/10 review"An entertaining book... fans of the band will want to get their hands on this. Pronto."- Booklist (American Library Association)"A fascinating, insightful look at the brothers who changed the face of rock 'n' roll and the politics and business that goes hand in hand with the music we all know and love."- Jimmy Stafford, guitarist of Train"It's extraordinarily well written and presents a fascinating view of the band and the people that helped make it happen... a great piece of research and magnificently presented."- Phil Carson, former vice-president of Atlantic Records who signed AC/DC "A largely untold, more controversial story... anything but a hagiography. A fresh, incisive take on the band." - MOJO (UK) ★ ★ ★ ★ (four-star review)"An essential read for fans of the band... a full portrait of just how significant a role George Young, Malcolm and Angus's older brother, played in AC/DC's development."- The New Yorker  "Until a band member puts pen to paper in a proper tell-all exposé - they won't - Jesse Fink's work here is the number one go-to book on the subject, warts 'n' all." - Uber Rock (UK)"Fink's look at the band addresses the question that he believes most mainstream rock critics have never been able to answer about AC/DC: 'Why have they endured and resonated with hundreds of millions of people and inculcated such fierce loyalty and outright fanaticism?' The answer is the unrelenting tenacity of the Young brothers... fascinating." - Publishers Weekly  "This thought-provoking book definitely breaks some new ground. Arrangement by chapters dedicated to specific songs is a satisfying way of telling the AC/DC story while providing music criticism. Scholarly fans will appreciate the bibliography. This one's a must-read for fans."- Library Journal  "A great narrative... it has one very simple, very powerful message for those who would like to dismiss AC/DC as childish hacks: 'Stop being so bloody pretentious!'" - Clark Boyd, PRI's The World  "A fantastic new AC/DC book... Fink did a great job. Essential for an AC/DC fan to read." - Carter Alan, 100.7 WZLX, Massachusetts "The latest, greatest 'rock read'... an awesome book." - Buck McWilliams, Gater 98.7 FM, Florida "An astounding - astounding - book." - Bill Meyer, KMED, Oregon "An excellent read." - Ryan Gatenby, WBIG, Illinois "The best book on AC/DC ever written." - Dan Rivers, WKBN, Ohio "I loved this book." - Arroe Collins, WRFX, North Carolina "Outstanding." - Mark Mayfield, KSLX, Arizona With sales of over 200 million albums, AC/DC is not just the biggest rock band in the world. It’'s a family business built by three brothers: George, Malcolm and Angus Young. And, as with any business, some people prospered while others got hurt along the way. The Youngs: The Brothers Who Built AC/DC is unlike any AC/DC book you've read before. Less a biography, more a critical appreciation, it tells the story of the trio through 11 classic songs and reveals some of the secrets that went into their making. Important figures from AC/DC's long way to the top open up for the very first time, while unsung heroes behind the band’s success are given the credit they are due. Accepted accounts of events are challenged while sensational details emerge to cast a whole new light on the band’s history, especially their early years with Atlantic Records. Former AC/DC members and musicians from bands such as Guns N'’ Roses, Dropkick Murphys, Airbourne and Rose Tattoo also give their take on the Youngs’' brand of magic. Their music has never pulled its punches. Neither does The Youngs. After 40 years, AC/DC might just have got the serious book it deserves.
