- Rock Concert has great first-person accounts from the earliest days of rock and roll performances (those of Elvis Presley, Peter, Paul and Mary at the March on Washington in 1963, when Bob Dylan went electric at the Newport Folk Festival, the Beatles at Shea Stadium, Woodstock, the Rolling Stones at Altamont, and Pink Floyd's The Walltour) all the way through Live Aid in 1985.
- Myers interviewed not just the stars like Joan Baez, Roger Waters, Alice Cooper, Bob Weir etc. but also supporting band members, stagehands, audio engineers, promoters, journalists, photographers, and more to take readers behind the scenes.
- A brilliant oral history on the level of such classics that Grove Atlantic has published as Edie and Please Kill Me.
- Rock Concert covers decades of rock history in a lively and accessible manner, and will appeal to readers of Bruce Springsteen's Born to Run (2016), Keith Richards's Life (2010), and Elton John's Me (2019).
- Marc Myers writes about rock, soul, and jazz for the Wall Street Journal, where his "Anatomy of a Song" column is often ranked among the most read stories of the day. Myers is an acclaimed interviewer whose 2017 book Anatomy of a Song received high praise: the New York Times Book Reviewraved that "each story is a pleasure to read and will deepen your listening experience."
