ISBN: 0131887904"Rockin' in Time: A Social History of Rock and Roll" so der Titel des im Januar 2006 erschienen 400 Seiten starken Buches. Es wurde von David P. Szatmary bei Pearson Education verlegt und mit folgenden Worten angekündigt:
"This well-organized, visually interesting book offers an in-depth examination of the social history of rock-and-roll. Rockin' in Time emphasizes several main themes, including the importance of African-American culture in the origins and development of rock music.
Tracing rock from its inception-from American blues to the present-this book shows how rock-and-roll has reflected and sometimes changed American and British culture for the last fifty years. Topics covered in this comprehensive history are: the blues and racism; Elvis Presley and rockabilly; Dick Clark and Don Kirshner; the California sound; Bob Dylan; the British invasion; Motown; acid rock; campus unrest and militant blues; the 1970s; punk rock; MTV; Generation X; the rave revolution; hip hop; and nu-metal.
An excellent reference work for rock fans, music industry employees, those employed by radio stations, and those in music and performer-related marketing."

Hier die Ankündigung:
When Elvis Presley prowled the stage on 2nd September 1974, he could never have imagined this would become his most infamous performance since he'd last wooed audiences with his "pelvic gyrations" in the 1950's. He was now a living legend. He didn't have to prove himself to anyone. Or did he? Why did the King get angry that night? Darrin Lee has painstakingly disassembled every aspect of the concert that was to become known as Desert Storm. His detractors said that Elvis’ words were nothing but the mad ramblings of a junkie.
This book uncovers the real, vulnerable Elvis. Elvis wanted to be heard that night. Now, at last, he has been given a voice. This is truly the shattering of a myth. This gripping and extensively researched book has it all: The Drugs Dialogue. The pater-nity suit. Priscilla and Mike Stone. The media allegations. Sensei Ed Parker and The Karate Dialogue. The author, a lifelong Elvis fan, has uncovered the facts behind the fabrications and come up with some startling and suprising conclusions. This is a true story. This is the story of Desert Storm.

Ankündigung des Verlages:
"Harley Jean Davidson tries to avoid Elvis week. Her job as a tour bus driver gets hectic enough without a bus full of devoted fans singing Elvis songs all the way to Graceland. It isn’t that she doesn’t like Elvis. She does. After all, her father, Yogi, is not only a huge fan, but he dresses up as Elvis every August and enters the Super Bowl of Elvis impersonators. But this year an Elvis is targeting other Elvis impersonators for death.
Even though Harley doesn’t want to be involved in the murders, she soon realizes the killer is stalking her too. And if that isn’t bad enough, undercover cop Mike Morgan puts their hot relationship on hold, her best friend cons her into fostering a new pet, her Siamese disappears, and her great-grandmother is off her meds and shooting up the town.
Can it get any worse? Oh yeah. Just when she thinks the murders are solved, Harley comes a little too close to an early grave... "
