New book about the Asbury Park music scene
Published 2008-06-01
Some of us have only just received the reprint of Chuck Yopp's amazing Greetings From Asbury Park when a new book about the music scene Asbury Park emerges. But this time the focus is not on Bruce, but on the hundreds of other artists who helped created the sound of the Jersey Shore. Local Heroes - The Asbury Park Music Scene was written by two Swedes, Anders M?rtensson and J?rgen Johansson. Together they have spent a ton of time researching, interviewing, taking pictures of, and documenting the bands and names that roamed Asbury Park in the last 40-50 years, including several Springsteen associates. Read more about this exciting new title.
