Music. The universal language. Rock 'n' roll, the music of the universe. Put 'em both together, stir in a bit of French bandes déssinés(comic strips to us Yanks) and you get Rock Toons. No longer in print this book tells the story of the music that will never die. You got Jerry Lee Lewis, the Killer! you got Buddy Holly, you got Motown, you got all the greats from the Beatles to the King himself, Elvis. Originaly published in France this book needs updating. The history only goes as far as the eighties but the beat goes on and on. I'm glad I got a copy for myself, the music sounds better now that I understand what it means.
