About this product

Product Information

"An absolute must for any rock-music fan." --Booklist Arranged alphabetically by band name for ease of reference, Rock Chronicles offers a fascinating, encyclopedic study of the ever-shifting line-ups, appearances, labels, sounds and successes of 250 of the most important rock acts of the past fifty years. It is a must for any music fan. Rock Chronicles is designed for today's visually-savvy consumers. Innovative, color-coded infographics give at-a-glance coverage from 1960 to 2010. Insightful commentary highlighted with photographs gives the lowdown on every member, whatever their role in the band, however short-lived their time with them, and however well known. Coverage is expanded for 50 of the biggest acts, with stunning displays of iconic photographs that chart their dramatic changes in appearance. Year-by-year color timelines trace the evolution of these influential bands. Total sales figures are given for the ten most successful albums. The book closes with a fact-filled, cross-referenced performer directory. Comprehensive and compelling, Rock Chronicles is the essential reference for everyone who loves rock music.

[Review for previous edition:] Well-written and up-to-date ...this book will be a welcome and heavily used addition to any rock 'n' roll buff's library., The subtitle aptly describes the scope of this encyclopedic survey of 250 rock acts. Find out who won what award, who played on what release and how every band broke up--or stayed together. Plus, excellent graphs that condense key info, and, of course, a ton of pics., [Review for previous edition:] More than 250 legendary rock 'n' roll bands (and more than 1,750 individual musicians) are profiled in this unique book... One- or two-page entries feature color-coded charts showing the core members of each band, their roles, and the time periods they were active... Readers can use this book to identify who was in what band, when, as well as find out who played on various studio albums. Fifty top bands (such as the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and the Who) get an additional two-page spread of color photographs. Numerous cross-references abound, and an index lists all of the performers noted in the book. An absolute must for any rock-music fan, this book would make an excellent addition to circulating collections., [Review for previous edition:] For music lovers who are fascinated by details, this extensive collection will certainly appeal., [Review for previous edition:] The year-in, year-out grind of rock stardom is meticulously mapped in this prosaic encyclopedia of notable bands. The AC/DC-to-ZZ Top selection includes 250 groups from the classic rock era and later...comprising all the familiar names along with influential obscurities... Colorful graphics detail album releases, sales figures, and shifting rosters of bandmates... Casual data-mining reveals striking patterns: rock music is almost as male-dominated as pro baseball; bands are such onerous workplaces that their members can't wait to quit; and they always come back for sexagenarian reunion tours.... Will introduce browsers to music they hadn't realized they would like., [Review for previous edition:] This alphabetically arranged encyclopedia offers opportunities for quick reference and casual browsing., [Review for previous edition:] For the music aficionado on your holiday shopping list, Rock Chronicles might fit the stocking.
