We've just got ourselves a copy of this book that was released in 2016.

Although billed as a 'Picture Show' FAQ this book mostly concentrates on the stage show and it's influences.

It does contain more detail that most other books our there (with the exception of a few titles such as Still the Beast is Feeding). We've been involved with Rocky since the 1980's and it was nice to get some new insights into the history of the show.

It's not a book you can easily read in one sitting as there is just so much information to take in. There are lots of lovely anecdotes from many of the stars of the productions included as well.

There is also a rather extensive Chronology as well as a very good Discography at the end of the book.

It's a great book, and probably due a part 2 or at least an update as ten years have passed since the original publication date (at time of writing this review).
