A revised and updated version of the artist's collected lyrics An
American original, Patti Smith is a multi-disciplined artist and
performer. Her work is rooted in poetry, which infused her 1975
landmark album, Horses. A declaration of existence, Horses was
described as 'three chords merged with the power of the word'; it
was graced with the now iconic portrait by Robert Mapplethorpe, the
subject of her award-winning memoir Just Kids. Initially published
in 1998, Patti Smith's Complete Lyrics was a testimony to her
uncompromising poetic power. Now, on the fortieth anniversary of
the release of Smith's groundbreaking album, Collected Lyrics has
been revised and expanded with more than thirty-five additional
songs, including her first, 'Work Song', written for Janis Joplin
in 1970, and her most current, 'Writer's Song', to be recorded in
2015. The collection is liberally illustrated with original
manuscripts of lyrics from Smith's extensive archive. Patti Smith's
work continues to retain its relevance, whether controversial,
political, romantic or spiritual. Collected Lyrics offers
forty-five years of song, an enduring commemoration of Smith's
unique contribution to the canon of rock and roll.
