Libros: "Then, Now and Rare British Beat 1960-1969" (Omnibus Press-2002)

Háganse un favor los amantes de la música británica facturada en los sesenta en particular y de la música popular en general. Adquieran este "Then, Now and Rare British Beat 1960-1969" (Omnibus Press-2002) en el que el estudioso del tema Terry Rawlings glosa un sinfín de bandas británicas de esa década mágica. Desde las más obvias: The Beatles, The Rolling Syones, The Kinks, The Who... a las más ignotas: The Beat Merchants, The Boston Crabs, The Glass Menagerie, Wynder K. Frog, The Pussyfoot y un larguísimo etcétera. Aquí estan representados géneros tan dispares como el freakbeat, el Rhythm'n'blues, el pop, el Merseybeat, la psicodelia, el pop barroco, el folk, el beat, el blue eyed soul, el mod sound, el garaje... en definitiva un auténtico almanque la música británica de los sesenta.  Vendría siendo como una edición en papel y centrada en Gran Bretaña del inmenso box set: "Nuggets II: Original Artyfacts from the British Empire and Beyond, 1964–1969".
El trabajo de documentación es realmente importante (sobre todo por el hecho de aportar nombres poco conocidos al conjunto), pero mención aparte merece el apartado gráfico que acompaña a las reseñas, es sencillemente espectacular, empezando por su formidable y evocadora portada.

Lo dicho, HÁGANSE UN FAVOR, please*!!

* La edición es en inglés.
