Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hundreds of albums that I salvaged from Hurricane Katrina are gradually being passed along to a friend, and the paragraphs that I gave him along with the first 399 LPs provide the genesis for Capsule Overviews of Favorite Albums. I have written the stories behind the albums and the recording artists, along with commentary on particular songs, and other works by the same recording artists. My goal is to flesh out information on the greatest music ever recorded, particularly for younger people who didn’t grow up with these records. While not comprehensive, the sections in the book give a good overview of the rock music scene over the past half-century or so, along with musicians in other genres that appeal to me.
