If you're a lover of music and in particular american indie then i'm sure you'll love this book.
Lots of great rare and unusual posters which just go to show how much of a shame it is that the gig poster seems to be dying out.
The pages themselves are about A4 sized and come on perforated pages which make it easy to rip out any poster you wish to hang.
I have a few round my house and i could've picked loads.
The only shame is that by ripping pages out i'm left with less to leaf through when i pick up the book for a quick peruse.

Great book with full colour, well printed posters on each page - which you can tear out, should you wish to do so, with marked out score lines for a neat trim!
Such variety and skill displayed throughout this book! I bought it after one of my tutors showed me it! I had to have it!
Definitely a great book for anyone to admire.

If you love rock and you love music posters then this is the book for you. I bought it as a present for a friend and now want my own copy. Everyone who looks at it also wants a copy. The posters are fascinating, and printed in really high quality. They are tear out so can be easily framed. You won't regret buying this.

I loved the first edition so much I immediately ordered the second and these definitely live up to the high standards it set. Great quality pieces of art printed on high-quality card. Would recommend to anyone looking to add some colour to their wall or even if you don't put them up, they're lovely to look at anyway :)

I have now bought both volumes of this book and think it's an absolute bargain for the sheer quantity and quality of the artwork. The information about each artist is on a level and enjoyable to read. I cannot recommend it enough for anyone interested in either music or art - you won't be disappointed!
