|  | Flowers in the Dustbin by James Miller
In this rock history, a veteran music journalist argues that rock & roll underwent its full creative evolution in 25 years. Tracing the music`s origins back to the blues of the 1940s, FLOWERS IN THE DUSTBIN profiles such seminal figures as Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Leiber & Stoller, the Beatles, and the Rolling Stones, and discusses the emergence of the counterculture via the Grateful Dead, Andy Warhol, and the Velvet Underground. He also sets his sights on figures who crashed and burned, like Jim Morrison and Sid Vicious, and how the music industry has promoted rock icons like Bruce Springsteen and David Bowie.
