Falling Stars : Air Crashes That Filled Rock & Roll Heaven

Rating:
Summary: Spell binding
Review: A friend recommended the book and I was skeptical at first, knowing nothing about flying airplanes. HOWEVER, the stories of the musicians were terrific and the reports of what actually happened in the crash were riveting. My husband and I shared the book back and forth for three days before we finally read it cover to cover between us.

Summary: Everitt Rock and Roll Heaven Review
Review: I loved getting the real story from a news anchor. The fact that the author was reporting the inaccuracy of first reports made the material especially interesting. I would highly recommend the book to any rock/country fan, especially those who find facts about their favorite performers of interest. I am purchasing for Christmas presents.

Review: This book focuses of the stories surrounding ten airplane crashes that killed famous singers/musicians...but it goes into a lot more than just the crashes...LOTS of ironies and strange facts surrounding the lives and crashes of Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, the Big Bopper, Patsy Cline, Otis Redding, Jim Croce, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Ricky Nelson, John Denver and others. I kept yelling into the other room..."hey, honey did you ever know that..."
Great read.

Summary: Fantastically Gripping
Review: This book takes you into the airplane or helicopter of some of music's most beloved stars on the trips that ended in their death. From Buddy Holly to Aaliyah, you are put in the scene by the very talented author Rich Everitt, and then taken up to the very second of their death. During the story of the last days, there is a flashback through the life of the star ending on the day they die. Another fascinating aspect of this book is how every chapter ends with "Ironies and Oddities". A very interesting list of factoids about the star and any ironic circumstances involving their crash. I loved this book! It truly has something for everyone, the music buff, the amateur or professional pilot, and anyone who just loves to be on the edge of their seat.
