Patti
Smith Complete : Lyrics,Reflections & Notes for the Future.Described
by her critics alternately as the "godmother of punk" and "rock and roll's
poet laureate," Patti Smith is an American original. Her first album, Horses,
was a landmark album of power, bravado, beauty, and grace. Its famous cover
portrait, photographed by Robert Mapplethorpe, "was the first to claim both
vision and authority," wrote Camille Paglia. "No female rocker had ever
dominated an image in this aggressive, uncompromising way." Purchase |
