A splendid visual feast, this book is de rigeur for any collector of rock posters, fan of rock music, or simply as a record of pop culture history.
Particularly strong in the psychedelic years, this classic reference also covers early rhythm & blues, new wave, and punk rock. The book also features an excellent oral documentation, including interviews with artists, musicians, promoters, and collectors.
Unless you're a collector looking for an extra copy, be sure to get the full-sized hc coffee table version, not the pocket softcover.
