Rock 'N' Roll Manifesto And Other Stories

By Alex M. Stein

A brand-new collection of 40 original music stories from award-winning storyteller Alex M. Stein.

These stories, memories, essays, parables, and passionate rants about records, concerts, heartache, radio, love, and life's unexpected victories take you to school dances, used-record stores, packed concert halls, and empty recording studios to explore the ways music seeps into our bones and propels us through life.

This book is for you if you have songs that echo your worst heartaches, songs that got you over those heartaches, or songs that helped celebrate your greatest triumphs.

This book is for you if you've ever labored over a mix tape (or a playlist or a set list) and thought seriously about how the songs and transitions dictate an emotional journey.

This book is for you if you've ever made a list of "desert island discs" without worrying where you'd find the equipment or power to play music (on disc or otherwise) on a desert island.

This book is for you if you've ever hovered over a boombox trying to find the exact right moment to press record to capture on cassette a song played on the radio.
