Jon, that was the first one I thought of (and my library even has a copy), but when I looked at it more closely I saw it was mostly focused on classical works. I definitely want to read it myself, though.
David, thank you for those! The Melody Maker one could work. What I'm looking for is a book to add to my library's collection. I had a student come to me today looking for a book on the British Invasion -- it's for a research project, and he specifically needs at least a couple of books -- and we really didn't have much of use to him. So that highlighted for me an area of our collection that needs work. I have a few ideas for how to fill the gaps, but have been stumped when it comes to a general narrative overview of rock history.

I learned from the Rolling Stone Illustrated History of Rock and Roll, but that's not been updated in a long time.
But that was a great collection of essays that covered the 50s through early 80s.

American troubadour, folk-music singer and activist Pete Seeger has died at a hospital in New York. He was 94.
I'm pretty fucking shattered.
I'm at a loss. Heard pale young gentlemen's cover of Paper Planes and must have it. Not on iTunes, not on Amazon. Zamzaar doesn't work on YT clips anymore. Does anyone have a recording if this that they'd be willing to share, or know of a legal source I've overlooked in my bungling?
Gimme a sec, Juliebird, I'll get it for you.
Is your profile email address the one you want me to send it to?
I didn't want for an answer - Insent.
Oh bless! Thanks ever so, David.
