Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

The rise of rock-and-roll–in a nutshell, with particular attention paid to the business side of the equation. Charlie Gillett, a British journalist, loves the music, and his passion is evident throughout. Yet the greatest strength of the book is the way Gillett tracks the resistance of the music industry to early rock-and-roll, which was followed (needless to say) by a frantic rush to engulf and devour it.

Review

“Still the definitive look at the evolution and synthesis of rock. A book of tremendous scope and scholarship.” — Blender, October 2006
