What are the best books you've read on any aspect of traditional, rock, or original singer-songwriters from the middle-ish twentieth century in North America and England? I know that cuts a very broad swath, but I'd be interested in what you regard as stellar biographies, analyses and histories of genres, excellent interviews, etc. that shed new light and perspectives on important music and musicians of the time. I'm looking for some terrific reads for quiet evenings.

Thanks,

Elmer

PS: I'm currently reading "Mystery Train: Images of America in Rock 'n' Roll Music," by Greil Marcus.
