DEAD MAN’S CURVE: Mark A. Moore relives The Rock ‘n’ Roll Life of JAN BERRY

April 8, 2022 Gary Pig Gold 0

I must confess that prior to the red-hot July of 1964, I’d never ever heard anything quite like Tommy Morgan’s harmonica solo on The Little Old Lady (From Pasadena) …Dylan vinyl having not yet infiltrated […]

Seth Bovey – Five Years Ahead of My Time

February 22, 2020 Peter Jönsson 0

I am not the first to congratulate Seth Bovey for writing a book that fills an important gap in the music history. Garage rock is for some reason sadly under-represented compared to other genres when […]

Will Birch – Cruel to be Kind

December 6, 2019 Peter Jönsson 0

We finally have the result of what PopDiggers announced more than a year ago in the interview with Will Birch regarding his upcoming biography of Nick Lowe. Will Birch’s seminal book on pub-rock No Sleep […]

Rich Tupica – There Was a Light

October 4, 2019 Peter Jönsson 1

First time browsing through Rich Tupica’s There Was a Light – The Cosmic History of Chris Bell and the Rise of Big Star [HoZac Books, 2018], I must say that I became somewhat doubtful, because […]

Sylvain Sylvain with Dave Thompson – There’s No Bones In Ice Cream

May 6, 2019 Peter Jönsson 0

The New York Dolls was one of the few shining stars in the dark age between The British invasion and the punk rock movement. They lightened up the otherwise rather boring rock scene in the […]

John M. Borack: Shake Some Action 2.0

February 27, 2019 Peter Jönsson 0

Just like Borack’s first Shake Some Action book (2007; a re-print is currently under way), this 2.0 update is the author’s personal guide for everyone who wants to travel through the land of power pop […]

Mark Duffett: Counting Down Elvis – His 100 Finest Songs

September 15, 2018 Peter Jönsson 0

Whenever a new Elvis-book shows up (they frequently still do), I can’t help thinking of these lines in Broken Whiskey Glass by Jason & the Scorchers’s Jason Ringenberg: You went to Memphis to find yourself […]

Robert Gordon: Memphis Rent Party –

July 18, 2018 Peter Jönsson 0

“Rent party” refers to a party held by a tenant in order to raise money to pay the rent by charging the guests for attendance fee. Memphis Rent Party is also the title of the […]

Joel Selvin – Here Comes The Night

May 20, 2018 Peter Jönsson 0

If I know my math, is Here Comes the Night Joel Selvin’s fourteenth book, which means that he approaches his subject matter, Bert Berns [1929–1967], as a music writer with more than forty years of […]

Dick Porter – Journey To The Centre Of The Cramps

April 21, 2018 Peter Jönsson 2

It looks like Dick Porter’s authorship focus became significantly clearer by working with his book The Ramones: The Complete Twisted History [2004]. After that sobering up, he continued to write books about interesting bands, like […]
