Rock Atlas : 700 Great Music Locations and the Fascinating Stories Behind Them
700 Great Music Locations - Book - by David Roberts
(2011)
Rock Atlas is more than just a guide to over 700 music locations. You
can visit many of the places or simply enjoy reading this extraordinary
fact-packed book's fascinating stories. Some are iconic, others are just
plain weird or unusual, such as Bob Dylan turning up unannounced on a
public tour of John Lennon's childhood home or the musical park bench
commemorating Ian Dury's life that plays recordings of his hits and his
appearance on Desert Island Discs.
Providing insights into many
performers' lives, Rock Atlas includes artists as diverse as The
Beatles, Sex Pistols, Lady Gaga and Lonnie Donegan. Presented in an
easy-to-read, region-by-region format, every entry provides detailed
instructions on how to find each location together with extensive lists
of the pop and rock stars born in each county. Illustrated with hundreds
of rare, unseen and iconic photographs, Rock Atlas is a must for anyone
with an emotional tie to contemporary music and the important places
associated with it.
