    Black Sabbath: The Day I Was There is the story of the pioneers of heavy metal in the words of over 350 fans. From 1970 to 1975, Black Sabbath released six epoch-defining albums, including such songs as 'war Pigs', Iron Man' and the hit single 'Paranoid'. Their story has been told many times before, but never from the perspective of the front row. Until now. Starting with memories from their pre-Sabbath shows in the north west of England, when they were named Earth, the book charts Sabbath's gigging history through the drug-fuelled seventies and a relentless touring schedule on the back of the first six Sabbath albums that cast the die for heavy metal with the classic line up of Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward. Encompassing numerous personnel changes since, including vocalists Ronnie James Dio, Tony Martin, Ray Gillen and Ian Gillan, this is a fan's eye view of how Black Sabbath went on to become the greatest metal band of all time, selling over 70 million records worldwide.

    In the early 1960s, four boys from Liverpool changed the world of music forever. And today The Beatles are rightly recognised as the biggest act in music history, famed for hits from 'She Loves You' and 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand' through to 'Day Tripper' and 'All You Need is Love'. They had 17 UK and 20 US number 1 singles. Their singles compilation, 1, topped the album charts in 34 countries in the year 2000. All Our Loving - A People's History of The Beatles takes the reader back to Liverpool in the 1950s and accompanies John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr on their journey to stardom, from John and Paul's fateful first meeting at Woolton Village Fete in July 1957 to the last ever paid-for show at Candlestick Park, San Francisco in August 1966. In the 1960s, post-war black-and-white Britain turned technicolour thanks to The Beatles, with 73 million Americans tuning into The Ed Sullivan Show on TV to see what all the fuss was about. The Beatles conquered the world, leaving behind a glittering legacy of popular songs and concert memories that fans have carried with them for years. There was no YouTube or Instagram then, no smartphones or selfies. Concert memories were made in the mind's eye and captured in fans' hearts and diaries, their stories shared with family and friends but otherwise unheard. Beatlemania placed four lads at the centre of a musical revolution that swept the world. This is that story, in the words of almost 500 teenagers who were there.

    Tell Everyone: A People's History of the Faces is the story of one of the world's most loved, most celebrated and most mourned rock and roll bands as seen through the eyes of over 500 fans. Forged from the shards of the Small Faces and the Jeff Beck Group, the Faces - Rod Stewart, Ronnie Wood, Ronnie Lane, Ian McLagan and Kenney Jones - stumbled bleary-eyed onto the gig circuit in 1969 and packed in more than 470 shows across the UK, North America, Australia, Japan and Europe, becoming one of the top-grossing live acts of the period. They split after their twelfth and final US tour in 1975, having consumed a lot of alcoholic beverages and produced some of themost memorable live performances of the decade, earning a reputation for bringing a party to town, both on stage and back at the hotel afterwards. Here is the Faces story told through over 500 previously unpublished first-hand accounts, from fans who still remember the backstage parties, the all-day rock and roll shows, the pub-style singalongs and the good time vibe that the band exuded every time they stepped on to a stage.

    1972 saw the Rolling Stones perform on American soil for the first time since the stabbing of a fan by Hell's Angels at Altamont three years earlier. The Beatles having split up - and with Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and Jim Morrison all dead - the Stones embodied what wasleft of Sixties counter culture. But they were close to broke and being impacted by drug use, and did America really want to see a band some thought incapable of functioning as a live act? Plus the United States was still coming to terms with 1970's Kent State massacreand grappling with the Vietnam War, the draft and the civil rights movement.So it was that the Stones travelled coast-to-coast, playing 51 shows in 32 cities in 54 days to promote their latest album, Exile on Main St. With a groundbreaking new stage show and a setlist drawn mainly from their last four albums, demand for tickets was high and the tour a sell-out. But the Stones and their fans found themselves going head-to-head with the authorities from the outset. Concerts were marked by crowd riots in the clamour for tickets and there were drug busts and tear gassings thanks to over-zealous cops. And in Rhode Island, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards wound up in police custody while a full house in Boston was expecting them on stage.In All Down the Line - A People's History of the Rolling Stones 1972 North American Tour, over 300 fans look back 50 years at the most infamous tour in rock 'n' roll history and remember every show, from opening night in Vancouver to the tour finale (and MickJagger's 29th birthday) at New York City's Madison Square Garden less than two months later. Ladies and gentlemen, the Rolling Stones.
