Customer Reviews

t-shirts anyone?

This was a very interesting book.Being into rock & roll since birth i have many good memories from the t-shirts displayed in the book.Some of the shirts i wish i had owned and some that i did own at one time. Very good book for rock fans and collectors.

"Chicken Soup for the Rocker's Soul"

My boyfriend plays in a rock band, so I got the book as a surprise for him. We love looking through it and reading up on the stories of the how, why, where, and what of each particular shirt. Call us Rock Geeks if you want, but I think this book is "Chicken Soup for the Rocker's Soul."

Best Rock T-shirt Book Around!

If you are interested in band or rock tees- this is THE book. You can tell the authors are true music fans who really care about this subject. It is well presented with great photos on really nice paper. Almost every page is a photo- so it serves as a great catalogue of "the best of" band shirts. Interesting details on each shirt keep you turning the pages. They really did a lot of research. Good range of tees (not just rock). If you are interested in music, fashion, or art- you'll like this book.

I Have That One

Or I guess I had that one. It is great to be able to see so many shirts that I had or always wanted. I miss my RUN DMC shirt, and now can at least look at a photo of it. The photos are high quality, the selection is varied and impressive, and great stories about how some of the shirts/logos came about, that you don't usually get to hear.

Heaps of shirts

This is a great mini coffee table book with heaps of great band t shirts for almost every genre of music. Would make a great gift.
