- 3.5 / 5

Los Angeles-based Domenic Priore knows his city's music history well. This overview of the mid-'60s explosion on the famed street that helped create folk-rock and nurtured garage-punk and early psychedelia — while also fuelling art and fashion movements and influencing film and television — is full of info, photos and album graphics. Things largely came to a halt with the riot of the title, but you'll still wish you could have been a part of the scene during its peak.
