Rock's Diamond Year: Celebrating London's Music Heritage

Celebrating Rock's 60th Birthday, from the formation of the Rolling Stones and the heyday of the British Invasion to the spawning of the Reading Festival, this book explores the music history of the London clubs that were the engine rooms for British rock n roll. The Rolling Stones, the Who, Rod Stewart, Pink Floyd, The Faces, David Bowie and The Yardbirds are amongst the many acts who performed on the London club circuit at venues such as The Ealing Club, The Crawdaddy Club, The Marquee, The 100 Club, and the infamous Eel Pie Island Hotel. With interviews from the archives of magazines such as 'Blues Matters', we revisit the days when Eric Clapton was God and Rock ruled the world. Play it Loud!
