From the birth of rock ‘n’ roll in the 1950s through the explosion of progressive rock, psychedelia, folk, blues, hard rock and the dawn of punk in the late 1970s, Seeker’s Guide to the Rhythm of Yesteryear by Shiloh Noone is an impressive reference work celebrating one of the most influential periods in modern music. Written by respected South African broadcaster and music historian Shiloh Noone, this substantial volume is far more than a discography. It explores the artists, albums, musical movements, cultural influences and fascinating stories that shaped popular music during three extraordinary decades.
Praised by keyboard legend Duncan Mackay (10cc, Camel and The Alan Parsons Project), Seeker’s Guide received a four-star review from Rolling Stone and has become a respected reference for enthusiasts of classic rock, blues, folk, progressive rock and popular music history. Covering hundreds of influential musicians and bands, it connects artists through their collaborations, inspirations and musical evolution, making it an invaluable resource for collectors, researchers, musicians and dedicated fans alike.
This 2012 paperback first edition is made even more desirable by being signed by the author. The large-format publication is packed with information and provides hours of enjoyable browsing whether used as a research tool or simply read for pleasure. Its encyclopaedic scope, combined with engaging commentary and historical context, makes Seeker’s Guide equally suitable for personal libraries, music collectors, radio presenters and anyone interested in the golden age of popular music.
A scarce South African music reference that deserves a place in the library of every serious rock music enthusiast.
