WEIRD POP AND ROCK PHOTOGRAPHS ANNUAL MINT CONDITION

"The Weird, the wacky, the wonderful world of pop & rock – celebrate all that’s fab in this pictorial of the Pantheon of Pop."

"There’s big hits, small hits, no hits and one hit wonders. Pictures you thought you’d never see, some you hoped you’d never see!"

"As often as not ‘Pop’ is used in a kind of dismissive way.. oh, that’s just pop: it’s as though other musical genres are far more important. Well here’s something to mull over. Pop is the single most appreciated art form in the world today. What! We hear you say. How can that be? Well creating music is an art form, just as much as painting pictures – some of which may even be pop art – or sculpting or opera or classical music, or for that matter any other kind of art. Arguably more people appreciate pop music than all those art forms put together. This is a celebration of pop music. A light-hearted, sometimes irreverent, look at a business which occasionally takes itself seriously but is mostly content to laugh along with the rest of us."
