History of Rock and Pop

Who wants to read about music you don’t want to listen to?

In 1964, when the Rolling Stones were in Chicago on their first US tour, who did they see painting the ceiling when they visited the Chess Records studio?

In 1986, the Psychedelic Furs recorded a new version of one of their songs for which John Hughes movie?

Who did Kanye West interrupt on stage at the 2015 Grammys to protest that Beyoncé should have won Album of the Year instead?

You’ll find over 400 questions, from the pioneers of rock ‘n’ roll to artists recording in their pandemic bedrooms. Some you’ll know, some you’ll think you should have known, and some you won’t know at all, but at least you’ll have some new music to listen to.

There are pages dedicated to specific artists and styles and places and concerts and anything else you can think of. Most pages start with an easier multiple choice question and work up to an open-ended question or two. Sometimes you’ll be asked to mix-and-match and occasionally you’ll even have to unscramble some album names.

The perfect gift for the music fan in your life.
