Leaving the Twentieth Century : The Last Rites of Rock 'N Roll

Black Book Company

A collection of obituaries of musicians who played in important part in creating popular music in the second half of the twentieth century but didn't live to see the twenty first century.

"A moving collection of rock ‘n' roll obituaries, written by the fans, the famous and the familiar, of those who helped build modern music, yet failed to make it into the twenty-first century. From Elvis Presley, Kurt Cobain, Keith Moon, Buddy Holly, Jerry Garcia, Freddie Mercury and Sam Cooke, to Tiny Tim and The Singing Nun."
