The illuminating essays--complete with music history, social commentary, and personal appraisals--double as a mini-history of popular music. Here you will find singles by artists as wide-ranging as Aretha Franklin, George Jones, Roy Orbison, the Sex Pistols, Madonna, Run-D.M.C., and Van Halen. Featuring a new preface that covers the hits--and misses--of the '90s, <i>The Heart of Rock & Soul</i> remains as provocative, passionate, and timeless as the music it praises.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Dave Marsh</b> is the author of the bestselling Bruce Springsteen biographies, <i>Born to Run</i> and <i>Glory Days, </i> and over a dozen other books, including <i>Before I Get Old: The Story of the Who, Louie, Louie: The History and Myth, </i> and <i>The New Book of Rock Lists.</i> A former editor of <i>Creem</i> and <i>Rolling Stone, </i> he currently edits the newsletter <i>Rock & Roll Confidential.</i>
