I was really, really surprised to see a copy of this at my local Dymock's, so I couldn't resist having a peek. It looks like a really good book, probably as essential as U2 Live if you're into that sort of thing. I would have liked to have seen the years up to 1990 extended greatly and all subsequent years reduced to two page spreads, but you can't win them all. I suspect that there will be future editions that bulk it up a bit more, and maybe they'll add a colour photo or two one day, but I don't think it needs that.

The Guardian has a gallery with pictures from this book up, all of them are in color:

Some comments are pretty funny.

Mine still hasn't come in yet I thought that I was supposed to get it last Friday....but it turned out that I was supposed to get it around Wednesday (yesterday). If I don't get it by Tuesday I don't know what is going to happen, cause I go home for Thanksgiving Break on Tuesday. It's just very frustrating....this is why I don't order stuff on line or from Amazon all that much.

Finally got it!!! It's kind of funny, cause I went to Borders yesterday and found it on the book shelves on the music section. I picked it up and looked though it.......it only made me want the book even more. Anyway, the book is great and I intend to read it throughout my Thanksgiving Break.

I like this book a lot. There is a lot of things that I didn't know and now do after reading.

It must have taken a lot of time and dedication to put out a book like that.

finally got around to ordering this and it arrived today, wasn't expecting it to be so big lol.

only complaint: noticed a few factual errors as soon as I started reading, which will probably be fixed in future printings.
