Description
Walter Yetnikoff's life was one of excess and extravagance, marked by a quartet of addictions that defined an era: sex, power, cocaine, and booze. As President of CBS in its heyday, he mentored some of the biggest names in music, but his own demons often took centre stage. A-Listers such as Michael Jackson, Bruce Springsteen, Barbara Streisand, and The Rolling Stones were all drawn to Yetnikoff's world, where the boundaries between success and self-destruction blurred. This book tells the story of a man who was both a force behind some of music's biggest stars, and a victim of his own making. With unprecedented access to the inner workings of CBS during its heyday, this is a riveting tale of the highs and lows of the music world, and the true cost of fame.
