Rock 'n' Roll and the Cleveland Connection

A useful resource for people of all ages who want to know more about rock history, Rock ’n’ Roll and the Cleveland Connection links national and international events in music and the world, though the primary focus is on Cleveland.

Rock ’n’ Roll and the Cleveland Connection is the first in-depth look at the people, venues and artists that made Cleveland the “Rock ’n’ Roll Capital of the World.” Author Deanna Adams conducted personal interviews with more than 150 musicians, managers, DJ’s, promoters, record executives, journalists, and club owners—all pioneers of this new musical movement—to compile these chapters of musical history.
