Riassunto

For 40 years Rob Roth has collected rare examples of rock tour posters, advertising posters, rock memorabilia, and original artwork. His vast spectacular collection has never been displayed publicly; only visitors to his spacious New York loft—visitors like Elton John and Alice Cooper—have glimpsed his amazing treasures. This lavishly produced volume presents some of the most vivid and exciting images from the rock world featuring classic artists like the Rolling Stones, Queen, Pink Floyd, the Who, Led Zeppelin, Elton John, Alice Cooper, and David Bowie.
