As a culture we’re more interested in what musicians are doing on their reality show or wearing to the MVAs than their actual music or message. But a rare few rise above the noise to become legends. The Taschen Music Icons Series of visual biographies highlights some of the greatest musicians who ever lived, like John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix and Bob Dylan. Each book tells the story of their lives and careers through 150 portraits, album covers, rare concert photos and previously unpublished candid shots.

Huckberry’s Essential Holiday Gift Guide
Unzip your coat and have some mulled wine on the house—you’ve arrived at your final gifting destination: The Holiday Gift Guide. It’s like your friendly neighborhood one-stop holiday shop, except instead of balsa wood ornaments, ours is packed with thoughtful gifts for everyone on your list. Future heirlooms, small-but-significant stocking stuffers, and gear for getting out there (or staying in)—are all right here. There’s no music playing in the background though, so you’ll just have to hum Bing Crosby while you click around instead.
