5.0 out of 5 stars
Great addition to Brit Rock book collection,
This review is from: The Fab British Rock 'N' Roll Invasion of 1964 (Paperback)
There aren't many decent books which focus on this specific subject: the FIRST wave of British music artists who "invaded" the United States in the mid '60s. This is a very attractive book - with plentiful, excellent photos and brief but to-the-point stories about the artists and their chart action. The book covers the pop singers (including - for once! - the female contingent), rock groups, personalities, as well as a look at origins, styles and trends of the Sixties. A welcome title for any Invasion fan or Anglophile!

Loved it! Wanted More!,
This review is from: The Fab British Rock 'N' Roll Invasion of 1964 (Paperback)
I found this a great book, reading through it gave me a few more stories about some of my fave bands, and the photos were excellent. I only wished it had been longer! A great read for those unfamiliar with the Fab British Invasion.

Poor, superficial research,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Fab British Rock 'N' Roll Invasion of 1964 (Paperback)
McAleer has produced a slick, superficialsurvey of the Beat Era with very little insight to the actual musical achievements of the groups. He has no sense of historical or artistic value of the music produced beyond a "headline" mentality. No probing beneath the surface (or the Top 40). Poorly designed book, with mediocre photo selection, most seen elsewhere.
