The Complete Book of Classic MG Cars covers all the marque’s collectible production saloons and sports cars, from the 14/28 and 14/40 sports cars to the iconic postwar convertibles like the MGA and MGB, as well as latter-day takes on the classic MG formula, such as the RV8. First produced in Oxford, England, in 1924, MG cars proved instantly appealing, with a cheeky spirit that would win the hearts of millions around the globe, not least of all in the United States. This was due in no small part to the fact that the price was as attractive as the styling and the performance. Inexpensive and fun became quintessential MG traits. In this installment of Motorbooks’ Complete Book series, author Ross Alkureishi offers a chronological model-by-model marque history. Narratives discuss design, production, and technology, while specification tables highlight key technical and performance data. Hundreds of photos illustrate the vehicles and even include detail shots of engine bays and interiors.Originally formed as a side business, MG became one of the world’s most recognized car brands. From prewar saloons to fast and affordable two-seat sports cars in the pre- and postwar periods, MG has exuded fun, thanks to models like the Midgets and Magnettes, the traditionally styled T-Types, and the vehicles that would become the marque’s most recognizable: the MGA, MGB, and MGC. MG would undergo several ownership changes throughout the years, and Alkureishi expertly shows how different ownership groups affected MG cars, good or bad. Along the way, the company competed on racetracks around the world, and Alkureishi describes the most successful of these exploits in complementary sidebars.The Complete Book of Classic MG Cars is the essential guide to this important chapter in the history of motoring.

Get the definitive story of the ’90s alt-rock movement straight from the musicians and figures who lived it.No period in the history of rock music offered such an abrupt shift in prevailing tastes as the 1990s. While just a short while before, radio and MTV were clamoring for hair metal bands, suddenly alt-rockers such as Jane’s Addiction, Nine Inch Nails, Faith No More, Primus, Smashing Pumpkins, and of course, Nirvana, brought a sea change not just in what the most popular bands sounded like, but also in fashion, politics, and seemingly all aspects of pop culture.In Alternative for the Masses: The Oral History of the ’90s Alt-Rock Revolution, veteran music critic Greg Prato presents more than 60 new interviews conducted exclusively for the book—with an emphasis on the 1990–1995 peak period—including insights from renowned names like:Ian MacKaye (Fugazi, Dischord Records)Frank Black (Pixies)Corey Glover (Living Colour)Moby (solo artist/DJ)Al Jourgensen (Ministry)Les Claypool (Primus)Kennedy (host of MTV’s Alternative Nation)Matt Pinfield (host of MTV’s 120 Minutes)Butch Vig (producer of Nirvana’s Nevermind)Tanya Donnelly (Belly, Breeders)Fred Armisen (Portlandia, Saturday Night Live)Prato also includes excerpts from one of the last interviews with Steve Albini, arguably the period’s most influential recording engineer and producer, responsible for influential albums by the likes of Nirvana and PJ Harvey producer, among many others.Prato sets out his book in thematic chapters covering topics such as:The Lollapalooza music festivalThe impact of NirvanaAlt-rock’s many subgenresNotable producers of the periodThe impact of women rockersMTV’s influenceDrugs and addictionand much more!Do you long for the days when it seemed rock artists were all about daring to be different, speaking their minds, and shaking up the music industry?

Witness one of the most stunning revolutions in rock ’n’ roll history in this authoritative and visually rich history of grunge.In the early 1990s, a new sound from the Pacific Northwest changed everything. Grunge! charts the rise of the movement that redefined rock through its raw power, authenticity, and emotion—and the community that gave it life. Longtime Seattle journalist Gillian G. Gaar, who lived the story firsthand, explores how bands such as grunge’s so-called “Big Four”—Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, and Alice in Chains—rose from dive bars and DIY record labels to dominate airwaves, fashion, and pop culture worldwide.Richly illustrated with rare photography, concert flyers, and memorabilia, Grunge! traces the genre’s roots in the region’s earlier garage rock and punk scenes, then follows its explosion and enduring influence, year by year, from 1986 through 1996. Gaar also spotlights:Key venues like the Central, Vogue, and Off Ramp that helped nurture the sceneFoundational labels, including Sub Pop, C/Z, and Kill Rock Stars, that transmitted Seattle’s sounds around the globePhotographers and chroniclers such as Charles Peterson and others who visually captured the chaos and creativityEssential bands, including the Big Four and trailblazers such as Mother Love Bone, Mudhoney, Melvins, Screaming Trees, the Gits, 7 Year Bitch, TAD, Bikini Kill, Sleater-Kinney, and Foo FightersIn addition, Gaar includes relevant quotes from her own contemporary interviews with folks who figured prominently in the story, including Steve Albini (producer/engineer), Jeff Ament (Pearl Jam), Mark Arm (Mudhoney), Carrie Brownstein (Sleater-Kinney, Portlandia), Jerry Cantrell (Alice in Chains), Chad Channing (Nirvana), Cameron Crowe (filmmaker), Tad Doyle (TAD), Jack Endino (producer), Eric Erlandson (Hole), Danny Goldberg (Nirvana manager), Dave Grohl (Nirvana, Foo Fighters), Mark Lanegan (Screaming Trees, solo), Courtney Love (Hole), Mike McCready (Pearl Jam), Krist Novoselic (Nirvana), Bruce Pavitt (Sub Pop cofounder), Charles Peterson (photographer), Jonathan Poneman (Sub Pop cofounder), Kim Thayil (Soundgarden), Everett True (journalist), and Corin Tucker (Sleater-Kinney).Grunge! revisits the years when Seattle ruled the world, offering an insider’s view of the movement that blended punk attitude, heavy riffs, and unvarnished authenticity into a cultural force that still resonates.For fans of rock history and 1990s culture, this is the ultimate tribute to music’s last true revolution—authentic, loud, and forever influential.

Explore the music and careers of the bands that have conjured an unlikely combination of backstreet musical sensibilities and main-street storytelling.There was a time not so long ago that Bruce Springsteen was persona non grata in certain rock circles—an out-of-touch millionaire stadium act who had forsaken his roots in the smoky blue-collar clubs of the Jersey Shore. But then a funny thing happened: a number of bands across the US, raised on the sonics and cynicism of punk and alternative rock, began drawing comparisons to The Boss thanks to their rich catalogs of narrative lyrics that trod much of the same subject matter, from shady characters and dead-end jobs to unreliable partners and even more unreliable cars. Veteran music journalist Geoffrey Himes calls these musicians “E Street Punks,” in reference to Springsteen’s legendary backing band, whose name is synonymous with rootsy, high-energy rock. The bands that Himes names to this canon are also bound by their common willingness to embrace not just Springsteen’s lyrical aesthetic but also older American styles that have proven adaptable to punk’s loud-fast ethos, including rockabilly, honky-tonk, blues, garage-rock, Celtic folk, Tex-Mex, and Southern soul.In E Street Punks, Himes examines the most prominent bands and artists in this group:Drive-By TruckersThe Hold SteadyJason IsbellAlejandro EscovedoJon Dee GrahamLuceroBottle RocketsDropkick MurphysHimes’ narratives draw on his decades of interviews with the artists, as well as new interviews conducted for this book, presenting the life and work of these bands—and in the process, naming a rock subgenre. Himes’s captivating commentary is supplemented with annotated discographies for each band and a selection of photos, creating the definitive story of this essential school of rock.If you are a fan of any of these bands or consider yourself an American music history buff, this is a must-have volume for your collection.

Kennedy begins before the beginning, outlining the evolution of Ford Motor Company from its founding through the early 1960s, delineating the key events that set the Blue Oval on a performance-car path.From there, Kennedy steers the reins of Mustang’s story through each of its generations, detailing the impacts of internal and external politics, engineering decisions, advertising campaigns, competitive models, racing endeavors, pop culture, and world events, on its unprecedented success. Henry Ford II, Lee Iacocca, Don Frey, and other Ford staff set the stage, joined by a host of key outside influencers, including Carroll Shelby, Steve Saleen, Jack Roush, Vaughn Gittin, Jr., and many more.From the V4-powered Mustang prototype of 1962 to the fire-breathing, world-beating Boss and Shelby versions of the late ’60s and early ’70s; and from the Mustang II and Fox body cars to today’s high-performance Dark Horse and GTD supercar, Mustang Unbridled offers an unequaled examination of Ford’s legendary pony car.“Robert M. Kennedy’s dogged research and ability to uncover truths that have been vetted with Mustang notables gives Mustang Unbridled some eye-opening viewpoints that may leave fans re-thinking what they thought they knew about Ford’s steel steed.”—John M. Clor, Enthusiast Communications Manager, Ford Racing“In Mustang Unbridled Robert M. Kennedy weaves the waves of national and global change into his Mustang historical narrative.
