This book is an excellent chronilogical history on the subject of Rockabilly. I don't think anyone has ever covered so much on the subject as Billy Poore has. Good pictures and many items to learn if you think you knew everything on the subject.

This is one of the most compleat histories of Rock an Roll and Rock-a-Billy I have read. It goes through all the building blocks of early rock-a-billy that became what we call rock and roll.

Rock-a-billy fans around the world owe alot to Billy Poore.He has fought to keep Rock-a-billy in the mainstream of american music his whole life.This book is the climax of that lifes work.This book is written from the heart by a man driven by his love for the music and the artists who perform it.I hung on every word,the stories are great,the pictures awesome.Get the book,read it,you won't find better.If you get the chance to meet Billy,talk to him and catch the passion in his voice and eyes when he tells you of his journey.No other book compares!!!

I ordered this for a holiday gift so I can't comment on the content of the book. However, I did flip through the book and I think the person getting this is going to really like it. It arrived very timely and I appreciate that.

This is a book filled with a lot of information and was enjoyable to read.
