Reviews"Its purpose and organization could not be more straightforward or user-friendly. This bibliography's value lies in its identification of many books that would otherwise be fugitive writings." Wilson Library Bulletin, "This bibliography is an easy-to-use comprehensive guide to books that concern rock and pop stars, and should be useful as a reference guide to collectors and anyone else interested in the subject." Music, "...[F]ascinating....Librarians should sieze [this] study with glee. This magnificent resource should be on every rock reader's shelf." Popular Music and Society, "The compiler includes an excellent introduction to using the bibliography. Recommended for all public and academic music reference collections." Choice, "Rock Stars is a good work, particularly for smaller groups and "shooting stars." Should be considered by public libraries with strong contemporary music collections and by music libraries." Booklist/Reference Books Bulletin

SynopsisWith a listing of over 3,600 books about individual artists and groups, this is the most accurate and comprehensive bibliography available on Rock/Pop stars. It is the most authoritative source for English-language titles, which are listed in the main directory under an A-Z presentation of artists. For easy access, information is cross-referenced through the use of author, title, and subject indexes. A down-to-the-wire supplement completes the book in a timely fashion. Collectors will be pleased with entries for privately published and/or limited editions, of which many are very rare.
