Great Shape
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
Book in great shape, but never received a "shipped" confirmation and could not follow the delivery time.
Hard to Beat
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
This book does a shockingly good job of covering the whole 20th century in music. If there's one gap that could be filled, I wish the author had added more of himself. Choosing to view his task as being more of an editor than an author, he provides a minimum of connective material, just enough to tie things together. Tell us more, David!

This book arrived on time and was in good condition. It was cheap to get which is a blessing for a college student.
A nice round-up of articles on rock history
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I'm using this book for a Social History of Rock and Roll class, and it's an incredibly easy read without being dumb. The subject matter is complex, but it's done in a way that's presented with a good setup to give you the proper background and context for each article and why it's important. We're skipping around for the class, but I'll be putting this book on my nightstand/in my house for quick 10-min reads. Superb collection.
