Mr. Tambourine Man : the life and legacy of the Byrds' Gene Clark
"Gene Clark soared to fame as a founding member and frontman of the Byrds, one of the most important and influential groups of the '60s. His songwriting with the Byrds and subsequent work as a solo artist and with Dillard & Clark mark him as one of rock's key innovators and a pioneer of folk-rock, psychedelia, and alt-country. Yet Clark's personal demons shadowed him throughout his life, and until now his legacy has been clouded in mystery. Told through the personal recollections of those closest to Clark, [the book] offers a rare glimpse into his life and work, a revealing portrait of one of rock's greatest bands, and a cautionary tale of the pitfalls of fame. Endorsed by the Gene Clark estate, the book also features rare and previously unseen photos from family and friends."--Back cover
