› Find signed collectible books: 'The Essential Rock Discography'Book summary:It took Strong 10 years to compile this discography, and the rock music world is in his debt. More accurate and comprehensive than other books attempting to accomplish the same ends, more readable and better organized, The Great Rock Discography title may toot its own horn, while Strong calls his opus "the ultimate rock book of all time," but it's entirely merited.
It starts at A with ABBA and spends over a page on them (and these are rather large pages, with very small print), describing the history of the band and their albums, then compulsively listing their every recorded musical output from October '73 until October '96, including a jungle of code notations (you can refer back to the formats-and-abbreviations page whenever needed) with catalog number and recording label, whether the A- or B-sides differ in their U.K. and U.S. versions, which are essential to your collection, and whether the vinyl was a long player, a double-long player, a colored long player, or a mini-long player. Covering Adam & the Ants, Bootsy's Rubber Band, Tom Petty, Linda Rondstadt, and Muddy Waters on up through the Zombies and ZZ Top, Strong lists every track by more than 1,000 groups. --Stephanie Gold [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'The Great Indie Discography'Book summary:Martin C. Strong has chronicled the careers of those musicians who positioned themselves outside the mainstream of conventional "pop". From the Americans like Velvet Undergound and Captain Beefheart who offered something different to the flower power and peace of the 60s, through the filth and fury of punk, to the acid house culture that spawned the Happy Mondays and Primal Scream, and onto the ascension of American grunge and Nirvana.

› Find signed collectible books: 'The Great Metal Discography: From Hard Rock to Hardcore'Book summary:From Martin C. Strong, the man who brought you The Great Rock Discography (now in its fifth edition), comes the next indispensable installment in the ongoing chronicle of music's rich tapestry: The Great Metal Discography. Whether you're a seasoned Sabbath stalwart or a death-metal debutante, this authoritative almanac is the ultimate guide to amplified guitar abuse in all its multifarious guises, guiding you fearlessly, and often irreverently, through "hard rock," "heavy metal," "thrash metal," "funk metal," death metal," "hardcore," "grindcore," "grunge," "black metal," and more. Fully revised and updated to the end of 2000, The Great Metal Discography contains over one thousand individual entries. Each entry features complete discographies that detail every release in all formats, full track listings for each album, B-sides for each single, expanded biographies and band histories, catalog ordering numbers, top U.S. and U.K. chart positions, and recommendations of must-have recordings and essential listening. From Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith and AC/DC, to Motorhead and Iron Maiden, Nirvana and Marilyn Manson, this book has the lowdown on everyone who ever turned the amplifier up to eleven. "The discographical book every self-respecting Classic Rock reader should have on their bookshelf." -- Classic Rock[via]More editions of The Great Metal Discography: From Hard Rock to Hardcore:
