Miscellany: feminine plural noun: a collection of miscellaneous writings, literary or scientific.
Rock: masculine noun: rhythmic music of American origin.
Rock Miscellany: an entertaining, erudite and surprising collection packed with improbable anecdotes, useless lists (10 French bands from the 1970s with funny names), or essential ones (the 10 best guitar solos in history), facts (what is ‘hair metal’?) and ‘unclassified’ features (Elvis is alive, McCartney is dead, …).
The history of rock is peppered with anecdotes, rumours, ‘urban legends’ and a wealth of astonishing, incredible, scandalous or downright funny facts which, just as much as the records and concerts, form part of the world of this music. This elegant book, entertaining from start to finish, is sure to captivate all rock fans.
