Here lie Elvis, Buddy Holly, Selena, Tupac Shakur, and many more. A loving tribute in words and photos to music’s dearly departed. May they rock in peace! Stairway to Heaven: The Final Resting Places of Rock’s Legends commemorates the rock ‘n’ roll greats who have gone on to that big backstage party in the sky. With artful photos of graves and memorials, and text offering in-depth and never-before-published information about the rock stars’ lives and deaths, Stairway is an elegant, informative, and soulful tribute to music’s greatest stars, from Elvis and the Lizard King to the Ramones and "Left Eye" Lopes. The best gift you can give a die-hard music fan this holiday season, Stairway can best be summed up by the words on the headstone of Blues Brother John Belushi: "I may be gone, but Rock & Roll lives on."

Customer Reviews
Summary: Good coffee table read Overall Rating: Comment: Stairway to Heaven is an interesting, informative book about the final resting places of some of rock music's legends. Many of the graves of famous stars are photographed and accompany the text. It's a book you pick up to read and can't then put down. Excellent to return to again and again. Summary: Best book ever!!! Overall Rating: Comment: I have 2 main interests. Rock and ghosts.Not just ghost but i think graveyards are cool. So this book was perfect for me. This book taught me so much and i love reading it. It's awesome for anyone who is interested in music!!!!1 Summary: Stairway to Heaven Overall Rating: Comment: This made an excellant gift for a rock fan and someone that is somewhat of a historian and likes things like this... Summary: A masterpiece....for any music fan. Overall Rating: Comment: Have you ever gone to see your favorite artist in concert only to go home somewhat upset because they didn't play this song or that song? Well,I thought I would be thinking that way when I purchased this book,thinking that it would not have the gravesite(s) of this artist or that artist or so on. WAS I WRONG!!! This is like a who's who of dead people of the music world. The book in no way caters to just one genre of music. It practically contains every dead artist from all genres of music. From country (Johnny Cash,Hank Williams) to rap (Jam master Jay,Eazy E) to classic rock (Brian Jones,Jimi Hendrix) to blues (Muddy Waters,John Lee Hooker) to punk (Sid Vicious,Johnny Thunders) to even Tejano (Selena),this book has it all. From members of the beatles to members of MC5 and from members of Lynyrd Skynyrd to members of The Ramones and The New York Dolls,no band is left out. There are roughly 100 artists in this 160 page book which includes artist and gravesite photos as well as the stories behind their deaths. No music fan is left out. It is a masterpiece worth buying. Although it contains no directions to getting to the sites,it still can also be used as the perfect travel guide for the rock n roll historian. Rock on!!!!!
