Wrestling With Elephants: The Authorized Biography of Don Black
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Born in poverty in the 1930s, Don Black quickly grew accustomed to "wrestling with elephants" — doing the hard work necessary to survive, or to write a good lyric. Black should know. An acclaimed songwriter responsible for "Born Free" and a trio of James Bond title songs, among hundreds, he has won every possible award and worked with the top talent, from Andrew Lloyd Webber to Michael Jackson. Dozens of photographs are included in this book on the life of a master lyricist whose successes include the musicals Bombay Dreams, Romeo and Juliet, and Tell Me on a Sunday.
