English rock ruled the airwaves in the 60s and 70s The fuse was lit
by the Beatles with their Mersey sound in Liverpool. In London, the
Rolling Stones played the blues as if their lives depended on it.
Then came the Yardbirds, the Who, the Kinks, heralding inventive
prog rock bands like Pink Floyd, Genesis and Yes, unleashing the
fury of heavy metal with bands like Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple.
As the 70s progressed, the androgyny of David Bowie and bands like
T-Rex launched glam rock to the world. These two decades of freedom
and creativity are captured in this book with photos by the best
photographers, and text by top French music writer Philippe
Margotin.
Celebrating Rock's 60th Birthday. From the formation of the Rolling
Stones and the heyday of the British Invasion to the spawning of
the Reading Festival, this book explores the music history of the
London clubs that were the engine rooms for British rock n roll.
Many of the now legendary British rock bands honed their skills and
developed their stage acts performing on the London club circuit at
venues such as The Ealing Club, The Crawdaddy Club, The Marquee,
The 100 Club, The Half Moon, the Ricky Tick, The Bull's Head and
the infamous Eel Pie Island Hotel. We revisit the days when Eric
Clapton was God and Rock ruled the world. Play it Loud! Why is 2022
'Rock's Diamond Year'? On March 17th 1962, Alexis Korner and Cyril
Davies started the EALING BLUES CLUB. The first UK gig devoted to
'electric blues music'. Musicologists agree that this event was the
catalyst that would define British Rock music. The Ealing Blues
Club sparked a musical revolution that grew further at Twickenham's
Eel Pie Island and Richmond's Crawdaddy Club, 3 venues that were
vital in the careers of: The Rolling Stones, The Yardbirds / Eric
Clapton, The Who, Cream and many more. Elsewhere in 1962 there were
rumblings of a cultural shift with The Beatles, Dusty Springfield,
The Animals, Marshall Amplification and many others setting the
tone for what became the UK's most significant cultural export...
Rock & Pop Music. 60 years on from 1962 and 'ROCK'S DIAMOND
YEAR' will celebrate the UK's unique contribution to what has
become a global music form. The initiative is led by The Ealing
Club Community Interest Company' set up to champion West London
music heritage while inspiring new music opportunity for the
future.
