Annie Leibovitz: American Music

Random House, New York, 2004, ISBN 0-8129-7304-6

“This book is an amazing journey through America’s music scene. Each photo sings its own melody… and presents with beauty and dignity the history of American music: gospel, blues, jazz, country, rock, alternative, rap… black and white, colorful and gray, banjo and guitar, man and woman, one and many, car and gun, famous and unknown, young and old, happy and sad… music is everywhere…

With some wonderful essays by Patti Smith, Steve Earle, Rosanne Cash, Mos Def, Beck, Ryan Adams and Leibowitz herself – this book is more than a photo book. It is music! Music for the eyes!”
