The Song of Peter Blackbridge is a novella about Boston music legend Peter Negroponte and the early days of his band Guerilla Toss. The mood of the underground rock scene of the teens is captured, and the personalities of the musicians, just out of music school, who would come to be dominant figures in the rock scene across the country. Boston is a locus of creativity, which this story shows through the fictionalized account of this band and others, in the exciting days of the creation of a new sound.
