Description

Rock and roll was born in unexpected gatherings of artists and audience. Musician and writer Lenny Kaye explores ten crossroads of time and place that define this genre, its unforgettable flashpoints, characters and visionaries. From the birthplaces of rock to its global discovery, Lightning Striking reveals the communal energy that creates a scene. This book is an ear-opening insight into our shared musical and cultural history, informed by Kaye's acclaimed knowledge and experience as a working musician. With a grand sweep and minutely detailed analysis, Lightning Striking takes readers on a guided tour inside style and performance, to see who's on stage, along with the movers and shakers, the hustlers and hangers-on.
