33 1/3 revolutions per minute : a critical trip through the rock LP era, 1955-1999

Segretto, Mike2022
Book
'33 1/3 Revolutions per Minute' is a history of the rock LP era told though critiques of a very personal selection of nearly 750 albums. It follows rock and roll from its earliest days in the 1950s to the explosion of the British Invasion, soul, folk rock and psychedelia in the 1960s, on through the classic rock and punk albums of the 1970s, new wave classics of the 1980s and 1990s alternative rock. Through reviews of albums universally regarded as classics - as well as far more obscure discs - Mike Segretto shows how rock and roll albums became a legitimate, self-contained art form.
