History, jokebook, buying guide, book of lists, and treatise all rolled into one, The Accidental Evolution of Rock'n'Roll is most of all a joyride through the wildest music ever made. Whether discussing Def Leppard or Nirvana, Vanilla Ice or Public Enemy, Donna Summer or Bob Dylan, Chuck Eddy is an unparalleled master at deciphering unknown tongues and disentangling musical accidents. In this lavishly and hilariously illustrated book, he reveals the roots of rap, disco, power ballads, bubblegum, suburban country, and noise-rock; why selling out is good and honesty is never what it seems; the similarities between disco and garage rock and between reggae and heavy metal; whether songs can ever really "mean" anything; what math rock has in common with amputation rock and orgasm rock; and much, much more. By eventually encompassing the whole wacky world of popular music, this book is destined to change it forever.Binding Type: Paperback

Love this drying rack
Color: black, Color: black
Easily mounted on the wall. We use near our fireplace to dry winter gloves and all that. Works great, looks sleek and nice. Love that I can fold all the prongs in when not in use. Very well priced for it. It’s stable, we hang snow suits in it. Love all the options for hanging to with the hooks, bars, and rack. It’s nice and stable to hold it all!

Excellent - thick, and coated with rustproof coating
Color: black
Excellent quality - thick and sturdy with a robust rust proof coating on the entire piece. It can hold lots of different types of clothing.

Great as long as you don't mind the shelf down all the time.
Color: black
This mounts well and feels very sturdy and overall works quite well. The only complaint I have is that the shelf doesn't stay vertical when it's stowed. It needs some way to keep it from falling down and hitting my head.

Perfect for shorts
Color: black
Easy to install and the perfect drying rack for leggings, shorts and tank tops. I like that you can fold the drying bars back into the wall to lay flat. Just what we needed for our small laundry room.

So disappointed! The pieces do not fit like in the instructions or pictures. The top rack does not fit in the slots; it’s too wide. It’s unusable!!
