"...this book is pure skirt for the eyes!" (Rock Times)
"What a title - and what a theme.

Timeline graphs illustrate the chronology of events, so you really get a solid overview of what happened here, when and where."

"The colleagues of 'eclipsed' take a close look at the first 20 artists and bands in the first volume.

As a large-format reference book, 'Rock' should find its venerable place right next to the house's own (vinyl) record collection." (SLAM)
