PATE, Ken. Roquette Rockers.

(Paris): Contrejour, 1975. First edition. French text. Preface by Carole Naggar. A superb collection of photographs of the rockers who used to gather on the rue de la Roquette, Paris in the seventies. An intimate look into a subculture that never died but had become more marginalized since its heyday in the 1950s. A very good copy in pictorial wrappers with some laminate peeling to the spine and rubbing to the edges. A hard to find and forgotten gem.
