Relive the sounds of a generation with Harry Winston's illuminating new book, Sons of 1984 . The year that everything changed for Harry Winston was 1984. Reeling from two deaths in his family, the fourteen-year-old rock and roll enthusiast found comfort in the pages of the first edition of the Rolling Stone Record Guide . First published in 1979, its unique album ranking system eventually led Winston to Todd Rundgren's 1972 double album Something/Anything? .and sparked a lifelong love for the musician's multi-layered lyrics. Taking an exhaustive look into Rundgren's music catalogue from 1970 till 1981, the author aims to highlight the clues and evidence that point to the musician's unique musical, philosophical, theological, spiritual, and mystical musings. Winston uses the authorized New King James Version of the Holy Bible, a gift given to him by his parents on Christmas Day of 1984, as the supportive text in his quest for the true meaning behind both Rundgren's lyrics and album art. A must-read for fans of the legendary musician, as well as those interested in philosophy and theology as they relate to popular music, Sons of 1984 reveals a whole new side of rock and roll.
