We’ve got those answers for you in The Great Book of Rock Trivia! This book contains hundreds of riveting facts about your favorite rock songs.

Do you want to know how your favorite group got together and who is really the brains behind the band?

As easy to follow as a good drummer, this book will take you through the early years of rock and its development through the hippie era, the synthesizer-filled '80s, and the grunge age.

I really really enjoyed the information that was given about these legends. Some of the stuff i knew about but most of it was new to me. I love learning new things, especially when it comes to information that might be on trivia games, so this book was perfect for that. I wasn't able to listen to it in just one sitting, i needed to give my brain a break, but that's only because its packed full of info.

I recently developed a keen interest in rock music; the signs, energy, slangs and coolness. At first, I felt I didn't know enough, and finding this book was a game changer. I learnt so many fun facts in a short time, and I can relate to the music better too.
I love this book, and hope to get more content like this.

Rock-on!!

This is another fun, informative, educational, and entertaining book/audiobook from Bill O'Neill. The book includes numerous fun, odd, and unique bits of trivia about rock 'n roll music, artists, concerts,etc. The little quizzes that occur at the end of sections were a fun way to see how much I already knew about the topics. Sometimes I knew the answers, sometimes I made a lucky guess, and sometimes I wasn't even close. ^^ Mr. O'Neill obviously loves his subjects and puts a lot of effort and research into producing an entertaining product. I am never disappointed.

The narration was great. Scott Miller has a pleasant voice, paces his delivery well, and varies his tone so that he keeps the listener engaged.

This book is a fun and entertaining listen. It is full of musical facts and trivia, some you may know and some a little more obscure. It runs the gamut from the beginnings of rock and roll to the present day. Each chapter gives you a quiz at the end to see how much more you may know about the music scene. As a big music fan this is an engaging and interesting book that gives you a glimpse at some of the behind the scenes information. I enjoyed finding out many of the facts about the musicians.
Narrator Scott Miller energetic narration makes this a fun listen.

Yet again Bill O'Neill brings us a great book of trivia, this time about Rock. I enjoyed listening to this book and learning more about the music world. I loved learning more about the artists, bands, trends and music itself. There's lots of great information given in an entertaining way. Love the quizzes at the end of each chapter. This is mainly about Rock but if you are a music lover of any genre then you should give this book a shot, it's rich in history and beginnings. The narration was excellent. Scott Miller has a nice voice, read at a nice pace and speaks clearly. Overall, a really enjoyable listen for any who love music.
