Discover the untold stories and intimate moments of music's greatest legends in Dan Ouellette's groundbreaking collection, The Landfill Chronicles: Unearthing Legends of Modern Music.
Musicians profiled range from jazz greats like Wayne Shorter, Carla Bley, and Wynton Marsalis to rock legends like Lou Reed, David Byrne, and Elvis Costello.
For over four decades, Dan Ouellette has been at the forefront of music journalism, chronicling the lives and careers of the legends who shape modern music. His interviews and writing about giants of jazz, blues, rock, and pop have graced the pages of magazines like DownBeat and Billboard, and newspapers from coast-to-coast.
While some of these articles are available digitally, many of them had been lost forever, destined to be remain buried in landfills. Dan has unearthed these gems, provided additional material, and added his own recollections about meeting the artists who made music history.
Part memoir, part archive, and wholly entertaining, these articles shed light on musicians' innermost thoughts at crucial points in their storied careers.
