Book excerpt: This is a collection of lyrics to various songs and poems by the author. Pictures were downloaded from various websites of the said artistes and especially www.bbc.co.uk. and www.bbcworld.com. The pictorial aspect accompanying the poetry is merely a facilitator to encourage young people to read the poetry and educate them about that era in the music industry. The pictures chosen by the author are purely on sentimental grounds. Needless to say if all the pictures of famous musicians were to be included, the book would constitute over five volumes with more than eight thousand famous names and faces. Although music has gone through various flavours of change, the dynamics and the fundamentals remain the same. Music and poetry are still therapeutic elements in our troubled world.
