Books We Love:: 33 1/3 Series

Books We Love:: 33 1/3 Series

33 1/3 impact-sized paperbacks are well beyond their weight in literary gold. Each volume concentrates on a single work, a seminal album that has had an unforgettable impact and incredible artistic value. Here’s a snapshot of some of the albums/artists profiled in the series: Paul’s Boutique~Beastie Boys, Live at the Apollo~James Brown, OK-Computer~Radiohead, Aja~Steely Dan, Illmatic~Nas (one of my personal favs), Horses~Patti Smith, and Master of Reality~Black Sabbath.
