Rock 'n' Roll Trivia

Hot Tracks and Cool Facts from the Glory Days of Rock 'n' Roll

by Michael Harling

tagged: rock, trivia
Description

What was the Beach Boys' original name? (The Pendletones, after a popular shirt manufacturer.) Who performed first at the famed Woodstock festival: Joan Baez, Country Joe & the Fish, Arlo Guthrie, or Richie Havens? (Havens.) What song knocked Michael Jackson's blockbuster Billie Jean right out of the number one spot in the spring of 1983? (Come on Eileen, by Dexy's Midnight Runners.) You'll want to rock around the clock with nearly 200 fabulous, fun trivia questions about classic rock's most unforgettable hits and hitmakers. Most are multiple choice, and there are also crosswords, match-ups, and name searches to test your music memory. From rock's beginnings and the British invasion to 60s peace and love, one-hit wonders, and women who warble, this makes for a great deja vu!
