Rock and Roll $67 Rock and roll traces its roots to the music of the early 20th century. Its infectious sound, characterized by catchy guitar rhythms, a strong beat, and youthful lyrics, sparked a musical revolution beloved by the young and initially scorned by many adults. The emergence of rock and roll signaled a monumental change in popular music, and as rock grew, it assimilated a vast range of influences, including country, folk, jazz, gospel, and international styles, to become one of the most dynamic musical genres of contemporary times. American Popular Music: Rock and Roll explores the history of this musical genre as it took the United States by storm. |

The Secret History of Rock ‘n’ Roll $16.95 Sex. Drugs. Loud music. Wild costumes. Dazzling light shows. These words can all describe a great rock concert or a hot dance club, but they were also part and parcel of the ancient cultural phenomenon known as the “Mystery religions.” In this book, author Christopher Knowles shows how the Mystery religions got a secular reincarnation when a new musical form called rock ‘n’ roll burst onto the scene. The Secret History of Rock ‘n’ Roll traces the history of the Mysteries — their rise, their fall, and their survival through long centuries of repression. Knowles shows how the Mysteries prefigured subcultures as diverse as Santeria, Freemasonry, Mardi Gras and even the Holiness churches of the American frontier, and explains exactly how ancient rituals and music found their way to the New World. In the process, The Secret History of Rock ‘n’ Roll traces the development of rock’s most popular genres such as punk and heavy metal, and reveals how many of rock’s most iconic artists play the same archetypal roles as the ancient gods. You’ll see how many of the rituals and customs and even musical styles of our postmodern society have stunning ancient parallels. You’ll meet history’s first pop |

“THE HEART OF ROCK-N-ROLL IS STILL BEATING”,
“THE HISTORY OF ROCK -N- ROLL IN 99 TWEETS” BY ANDY SZPUK
There are a few words I can use to describe this short story. Fun, cute, silly, and adorable. Andy Szpuk tells the story of a man and his ups and downs with rock -n- roll by way of song excerpts. You can’t help but find yourself thrown back in time to your own “Glory Days” while reading it, as you find yourself remembering the songs and singing along.
A definite must-read short story.

A Clever Meeting of Twitter and Rock and Roll.,
Andy Szpuk has joined the growing Twitter Fiction movement to produce this very clever story in which each paragraph of 140 characters or less (the limit for a tweet) features the title or words from a rock and roll song.
We follow Harry through a life of misdirected love and business failures and successes, all the while recognising tags to songs we’ve sung for generations.
A very affordable piece of entertainment. Well done Mr. Szpuk.The History of Rock and Roll in 99 tweets
