Hail! Hail! Rock'n'roll Zusammenfassung

Hail! Hail! Rock'n'roll: The Ultimate Guide to the Music, the Myths and the Madness John Harris

HAIL! HAIL! ROCK'N'ROLL is the ultimate guide to what Spinal Tap called 'the majesty of rock, the mystery of roll'. Gloriously irreverent, it is also satisfyingly definitive, with a list of every Glastonbury line-up; a dictionary of obscure genres from Alt.country to Shoegazing; a brutally honest guide to the Beatles' solo albums; the surprising wit and wisdom of Shaun Rider and Noel Gallagher; Bob Dylan's collected thoughts on Christianity and Keith Richards' less-collected thoughts on drugs; and a handy flow chart that shows you how to listen to all of Captain Beefheart's albums without going insane. From essential stage equipment to strange collaborations (Lou Reed and Kiss, anyone?) to the long, tragic journey of the rock moustache, HAIL! HAIL! ROCK'N'ROLL is an endlessly fascinating miscellany from one of the best music writers around.

Hail! Hail! Rock'n'roll Bewertungen

Music's equivalent of Schott's Miscellany * Mojo *
A vivid and consistently entertaining cornucopia of lists, miniature histories and Harris's own obsessions * Q *
For anyone needing guidance on living a righteous rock'n'roll life, there's no end of wit and wisdom from the likes of Lemmy, Keith Richards, Bob Dylan and the Gallagher brothers, and compilers of pub quizzes should find plenty of potential here ... a nice alternative seasonal gift * Irish Times *
There's more quitessentially Harris stuff in here (who else would include an illustration of These Animal Men Hooligans?), but ultimately Hail! Hail! . . . drips with lashings of popular, everyday appeal. Neither scholarly tome nor single-flick fluff, it * Classic Rock *
