| Abstract | Reference guide to rock 'n' roll past, present, and future. This revised edition spotlights the brilliant new performers who have pumped fresh blood into the music, including bluesmaster Robert Cray, folk revivalist Suzanne Vega, the hot southwest dance band Los Lobos (stars of the hit movie La Bamba), and rappers Run-DMC and Beastie Boys. Entries for megastars like Michael Jackson, Bruce Springsteen, Whitney Houston, and Prince define their latest inspirations, and the book evaluates the newset archival releases from protorockers like Elvis Presley, the Velvet Underground, and Chuck Berry. The entires for each artist are crammed with more information than any other rock guidebook, including color photographs of the artist and their records, biographical data, and authoritative evaluation of the performers' career, a discography including CD releases, and a list of his singles with their highest chart positions. Packed with over 700 photos. |
