Review: If You Like the Beatles...: Here Are Over 200 Bands, Films, Records and Other Oddities That You Will Love

If You Like the Beatles...: Here Are Over 200 Bands, Films, Records and Other Oddities That You Will Love If You Like the Beatles...: Here Are Over 200 Bands, Films, Records and Other Oddities That You Will Love by Bruce Pollock
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Pollock uses the vast world of The Beatles as a springboard to tell the story of pop and rock from roots of the Beatles through the quartet's arc to the faintest echoes in modern rock. At times the book is a mash-up of unsynthesized trivia but I enjoyed as a quick read that was at times an exhilirating, breathless jaunt through decades of memorable music.
