Rock 'n' roll London : a guide to the city's musical heritage
Barrell, Tony2019
Books
The London landmarks associated with music history are mapped out, contextualised and cast light on in this book showing where the great and good of rock lived, rehearsed, partied, died and recorded. London teemed with top-rated singers and musicians during the '60s and '70s, whether they were squatting, playing gigs or investing in multi-million pound mansions. Follow McCartney and co. to the quiet flat on Green Street that was their refuge before the Beatlemaniacs sought them out. Wind back time to when Loog Oldham locked Mick and Keith in their flat and demanded they compose a song. From the zany to the tragic - it was in St Mary Abbot's Hospital, Kensington where Jimi Hendrix was pronounced dead - this is a guidebook like no other, a pilgrimage dedicated to the rock 'n' roll greats.
