"Anthony DeCurtis writes about rock music with no agenda but alerting his readers to what's good and trying to get at the truth about it. He's an intellectual with the common touch and a fan with a rare gift for articulating the emotional reactions many of us experience but few can put into words. Having the best of DeCurtis in one volume is a great and overdue pleasure."--Bill Flanagan, Editorial Director, VH1
