Book Synopsis

Rock is not just a genre of music. It is a way of being; an attitude. It was a movement that swept and sweeps stages around the world from the 1950s until present day.

The universe of rock is a star-studded one; filled with artists and songs that have changed the world with their innovation, their ideas, their thoughts and their style. Almost 70 years since the birth of rock, this book honours the legends that gave it sound, as well as all of us who loved and go on living it.
