Rock Atlas by David Roberts

Rock Atlas by David Roberts

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.
