ICONS OF ROCK will be an inspirational read for anyone with an ounce of creativity in their body and a frank and honest look at the experiences of some of rock's finest musicians.

There have been innumerable 'rock star' biographies and music histories before, but there is no book that presents the deepest, innermost thoughts from some of the industry's most legendary musicians on not only how they create, but what drives their creative process. Have you ever wondered how your favourite rock stars get inspired? How they write a song? How an album is put together? What made them choose a life devoted to music?

Written and compiled by Jenny Boyd, who has lived at the heart of the rock world since the 1960s and experienced many of its most iconic moments, the book contains interviews with each musician to give the reader a compelling and groundbreaking insight into the creative process at the heart of each rock star's musical success. From Eric Clapton to Mick Fleetwood, Joni Mitchell to George Harrison, this is a bible of rock royalty that provides an intimate portrait of their craft.

Icons of Rock is the perfect book for any fan that wants to know more about their favourite musicians and bands - or any budding composer and performer who wants a unique insight into how the world's most legendary rock stars created and delivered their greatest music.

Jenny Boyd is a former 60s model (she was even shot by Patrick Lichfield), and the younger sister of Pattie Boyd (who was married to George Harrison and Eric Clapton). Married to Mick Fleetwood twice, Jenny has been immersed in the world of 'sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll' since her teens. As a rock star muse, Jenny even inspired Donovan and Mick Jagger to write songs about her, including Donovan's famous hit Jennifer Juniper.
