New Book on the History of Canadian Rock and Pop

May 9, 2014 Alan Cross 1 Comment

It used to be that we did a lousy job of documenting the history of music in this country. But over the last fifteen years or so, there’s been a blessed change in the situation.

Marty Melhuish’s Oh What a Feeling features a year by year chronology of the Canadian artists, events and music and contains than 1,000 entries and images.

If you’re at Canadian Music Week this weekend, there’s a special book release event at 3:45 on Saturday on the convention floor of the Marriott at Bay and Dundas.
