"Initially featured in an issue of AD in 1974, Lotusland has been archived recently in a new Rizzoli book photographed by Lisa Romerein. She first captured the estate for a magazine spread about Santa Barbara, but back then, she only had one day to shoot it. So, she jumped at the opportunity to reexamine Lotusland's rare plants and ethereal atmosphere, from dawn until dusk, including the gardens' impressive growth and expanding relevance. In the urgent context of climate change, Lotusland's beauty is also a testament to its pioneering sustainable horticultural practices." --ARCHITECTURAL DIGEST

Synopsis
An extraordinary archive of the most iconic sites on the American musical landscape. Prompted by the closing of New York's famed CBGB, Rhona Bitner embarked on a thirteen-year journey to photograph 403 venues across twenty-six states and eighty-nine cities--the studios, concert halls, arenas, high schools, bars, ballrooms, prisons, and fields where the most memorable songs were inspired, recorded, performed, and listened to. Featuring Jimi Hendrix's recording studio, Elvis's Graceland music room, Aretha Franklin's family church, the Georgia auditorium where fourteen-year-old Little Richard was discovered and Ray Charles, Otis Redding, James Brown, and Sam Cooke took the stage, and the high school where a young Bob Dylan first performed, this book showcases each locale that played a seminal role in the soundtracks of generations. While Bitner recorded these sites empty and silent, the reverberations of fabled tunes still echo from within their walls. With informative texts on each location and archival images of performers recording or playing in the venues, this encyclopedic collection is a must-have addition to the libraries of music aficionados everywhere., An extraordinary archive of the most iconic sites on the American musical landscape.
