Rock on CD: The Essential Guide

This is a directory of rock music available on CD, from AC/DC to ZZ Top and covering REM, XTC and U2 along the way. Sixties acts like Cream and Joni Mitchell, contemporary performers such as Prince and MC Hammer, and perennials like David Bowie and the Rolling Stones, are all included. The author has chosen about 125 groups and singers and gives a personal assessment of their albums, including an appreciation of what he considers the finest - and fair warning of those best avoided.
