Best known as the lead singer of Queen, his ... four-octave voice was a distinctive element in the band's unique sound, which resulted in more than a dozen million-selling albums through the 1970s, '80s, and early '90s. [This book] charts his ... career in the context of the life he led in the glare of rock stardom"--Amazon.com.
