PLAUMANN, Klaus. The BeatAge: Die frühen Tage des Rock in Deutschland und Großbritannien.

(Frankfurt): Zweitausendeins, 1978. First edition. Quarto. 296 pages. German text, sadly there hasnt been an English edition of this great book. Absolutely superb history of the early days of rock music in Germany and Great Britain. Illustrated throughout with fantastic black and white photographs of the fans, clubs, the stars and the bands. A very good plus copy in pictorial boards without dust jacket as issued. Essential visual reference to the sixties and seventies scene.
