5.0 out of 5 stars The true stories behind the ten biggest hits of each year, September 9, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Top Ten: 1956-Present (Paperback)
After writing the award-winning broadcast special "The History of Rock 'n' Roll," Gary Theroux was flooded with letters from fans hoping for a book that captured in print the stories behind many of the landmark hits showcased in the program. Two years later, Gary Theroux came up with "The Top Ten" 1956-Present," which devotes a full 8 1/2x11 page to each of the ten biggest hit singles of each year, revealing stories behind the songs and the stars that are sometimes funny, sometimes sad, sometimes moving but always fascinating fun. You'll never hear your favorite songs again in quite the same way after reading this book -- and discover just what inspired those tunes and the happy series of accidents (and they often were accidents!) that led to the very top of the hit parade. Gary currently hosts a daily 2 1/2 minute syndicated radio version of "The History of Rock 'n' Roll."
