When the spirit of Music comes to a funeral to reclaim its most precious prodigy, it reveals the epic story of Frankie Presto-the greatest guitar player who ever lived-and the six lives he changed with his six magical blue stringsWith Music telling the fantastical tale, we learn of young Frankie, born in a burning church, abandoned as an infant, and raised by a music teacher in a small Spanish town, until war rips his life apart. At nine years old, he is sent to America in the bottom of a boat. His only possession is an old guitar and six precious strings. His amazing journey weaves him through the musical landscape of the 1940s, 50s and 60s, with his stunning playing and singing talent affecting numerous stars (Duke Ellington, Hank Williams, Elvis Presley) until, as if predestined, he becomes a pop star himself. He makes records. He is adored.

At the height of his popularity, tortured by his biggest mistake, he vanishes. His legend grows. Only decades later, having finally healed his heart, does Frankie reappear -just before his spectacular death -to change one last life.A lifelong musician, Mitch Albom's passion shines through on every page.
