"The 27s: The Greatest Myth of Rock and Roll" with author Eric Segalstad May 20, 2009

Nothing captures popular imagination like the death of a young performer. In "The 27s", Eric Segalstad and Josh Hunter examine the lives and fates of musicians who by the age of 27 had left both their mark and the mortal coil. The authors weave biography, music history, sociology and vivid graphics to tell the stories of turn-of-the-last-century bluesmen to the turn-of-the 21st-century genre-defying artists.

Author and photographer, Eric Segalstad discusses his book, the music and why 27 looms large in the minds of those who entertain us.
