While visiting London during summer, I went on a tour featuring British Rock'n'Roll history, people and places. The tour in itself is a must for almost everyone that ever listened to British rock bands in their life, and the tour guide was using this book as a prop. Back in the States, I purchased the book, and it is an excellent read, complementing the places I've seen with a lot of detail. Even if you'll never make it to London or you intend to visit in the near future, this book would provide a plethora of information about many places of interest. By reading it, you'll realize how many of our cultural icons originated, lived, performed, died in this amazing city that is London.
