From their formation in Sydney, Australia in 1973 by brothers Angus and Malcolm Young, Ac/dc have made the most visceral and single-minded rock, and it has served them well, with more than 200 million records sold. The basic blueprint that Ac/dc laid down on their early albums with Bon Scott—hard, no-nonsense, riff-driven rock’n’roll—has sustained them all the way through to their latest album, 2014’s Rock Or Bust. Angus and Malcolm held Ac/dc together after the death of singer Bon Scott in 1980. And now, so many years later, even without Malcolm around, Angus doesn’t look like he’s about to give up on the band. Illustrated with rare and unseen photographs, this handsome biography from an acclaimed rock biographer is a fitting salute to rock‘s royal family.

Longtime music icon John Mellencamp’s artistic expression has never been limited to song.

The acclaimed singer-songwriter John Mellencamp has been an accomplished painter for more than four decades. This definitive survey—curated by Mellencamp himself—of his large-scale oil portraits and mixed-media assemblages documents America’s heart and soul, revealing unsettling but beautiful truths with an antiestablishment frown and a rich sense of narrative. “Although we may primarily know Mellencamp as a rock star, one of the highest-selling of all time and a Hall of Famer, he is also a great painter, as this book shows. Not a musician who also paints... No, John legitimately belongs in the modern art pantheon,” says Bob Guccione Jr. in his essay that delineates the connection of Mellencamp’s music and art, both imbued with the earnest voice of America’s heartland.
