Library Journal likes The Rock & Roll Film Encyclopedia

Well, the first review on my new book, The Rock & Roll Film Encyclopedia has come in.

Library Journal calls it a "witty, riff-filled romp" through rock film history. The review notes that the book is "unabashedly (and quite refreshingly subjective)," as well as "idiosyncratic" and opines that the format allows for the author to "display his deep knowledge and affection for the subject."

Rock and roll, baby!
