Kurzbeschreibung
"MTV Pop and Rock World Records 2011" is a superb guide to everybody's favourite types of music and the records associated with them. More than just a dull book filled with page after page of cheesy charts and boring record sales, this book offers a huge range of information on all sorts of musical styles, musicians and countries - everything you need to know about the entire world of pop and rock. Tying in closely with MTV's brand values, this book is an amazing, amusing and above all fun look at pop and rock records.
