Software Reviews of Rolling Stone 40 Years: Cover to Cover
Customer Review: It is what it is
Summary: 3 Stars
If you like RS, you'll like this set. If you don't, then don't buy it. I enjoyed looking back at issues I remembered growing up in the golden age of rock and roll. RS has gotten (perhaps always was) so caught up in its own self-importance, they take themselves way too seriously. A fish rots from the head, and RS has inhaled vigorously due to the leadership of Jann Wenner. Despite their ironic "all the news that fits" that's always what it has been - a lot of navel-studying by supercilious writers. But there are gems embedded - the work of HS Thompson & William Greider in particular. I enjoy looking back at their album reviews then looking in the RS Album Guide to see how they've modified their assessments based on the success of the artists. There is a lot of chaff, but their are kernels worth the effort of getting past the reader SW.
I got this at a Barnes & Noble store for $5 so I didn't venture the $20 Amazon wants. That made the re-reading of the interview with David Byrne, about voodoo - one of, if not the, worst interviews in publishing history - worth the price I paid.
