When going through the bins at the local second-hand record stores
I often feel the need for a reference book to help me pick out
the obscure gems that are available. I seen a number of guides
to rock albums, but most I've seen seem woefully incomplete.
For example, I recall hearing recently, that there have now been roughly
75 Jimi Hendrix albums released. The guide I seek would list all 
the bootlegs, imports and re-issues made ordered by artist. A grading
system would also help.

Does anyone out there have any recommendations for books covering
rock and/or soul records from say 1955 to 1982?

As usual, thanks in advance and I WILL post a summary if anyone sends me
mail.

p.s. Can anyone confirm that number 75?
