This book is a fun and informative historical survey of songs that lionize notorious brigands from Ireland to Brazil Italy to Australia to the drug lords of Mexico and the inner-city gangs of the United States. For centuries each of these cultures have continued to romanticize criminals raising them to the status of heroic figures through poetry stories song and more recently film. ÊA Friend of the DevilÊ tracks the true story of these legendary bandits behind the songs that deify them while looking at society''s role in both creating outlaws and our perpetual need for a new hero.

Illustrated with a series of photographs by the author of songwriters and singers of outlaw ballads that include Pete Seeger Joan Baez Aaron Neville John Prine and Gordon Gano of Violent Femmes.

Just as important the book surveys and recommends recordings of all of the music discussed so that listeners can acquire a music collection of whatever depth suits them best while the included CD features top-notch recordings from the Harmonia Mundi label of a wide range of Handel''s music in all of the major media in which he worked both vocal and instrumental.

It''s time to blow away the Victorian cobwebs that have dogged his reputation and discover just how much there is to enjoy.
