1971: The Year That Rock Exploded

This 1971 saw an unrepeatable surge in musical creativity, technological innovation, naked ambition and outrageous good fortune that combined to produce music still crackling with relevance today. From iconic releases like Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven" and the Who's "Baba O'Riley", to timeless classics from artists such as Carole King and Marvin Gaye, this year was a pivotal moment in rock history.

David Hepworth, who was just 21 years old in 1971, has been writing and broadcasting about music ever since. In this entertaining and provocative book, he argues that the musical output of 1971 remains unparalleled to this day, with every note telling a story worth exploring.
