Description
Lightning Striking: An epic history of rock n roll told through the micro-narratives of twelve cities and their 'scenes', from Cleveland to London, Memphis to Seattle.
Rock and roll was born in basements and garages, radio stations and dance halls, where unexpected gatherings of artists and audience changed the way music is heard and celebrated. Musician and writer Lenny Kaye explores ten crossroads of time and place that define rock n roll, its unforgettable flashpoints, characters and visionaries.
From Elvis Presley's Memphis to Kurt Cobain's Seattle, Lightning Striking reveals the communal energy that creates a scene, a guided tour inside style and performance. Alongside the movers and shakers, the hustlers and hangers-on, this book shows why everybody is listening.
