‘Always up close and personal, always tenacious and informed by
deep background, and always vivid and veracious’ The Times -----
The greatest popular songs, whether it’s Aretha Franklin singing
‘Respect’ or Bob Dylan performing ‘Blind Willie McTell’,
have a way of embedding themselves in our memories. You remember a
time and a place and a feeling when you hear that song again. In
Holding the Note, David Remnick writes about the lives and work of
some of the greatest musicians, songwriters, and performers of the
past fifty years. He portrays a series of musical lives – Leonard
Cohen, Buddy Guy, Mavis Staples, Paul McCartney, Bruce Springsteen,
Patti Smith, and more – and their unique encounters with the
passing of that essential element of music: time. These are
intimate portraits of some of the greatest creative minds of our
time written with a lifetime’s passionate attachment to music
that has shaped us all.
