Surrey County is where British rock journalist Neil Mach grew up. Born the year Tommy Styeel started Singing The Blues, the same year Sid Viscious was born, and the year the Cavern Club opened in Liverpool, Neil shares his tale in this book. He investigates the reasons behind Surrey's reputation as a haven for rock arrists. He wonders why this suburban landscape produced so many talented people. During the Golden Age of Rock 'n' Roll, some of the greatest musical artists in history, including punk rock idols, progressive rock pioneers, sensational supergroups, and even The Beatles and The Stones, lived, loved, and worked in Surrey. What exactly about Surrey was so inspiring for these artists? This is personal popular music history. Just a kid's memories. On top of that, it's a study detailing how the British 'Beverly Hills' shaped and defined the rock 'n' roll history of the 1950s, 1960s, and early 1970s.
