The resulting essays were collected in \u003ci\u003eStranded,\u003c\/i\u003e twenty passionate declarations that, appropriately, affirmed the solitary and obsessive activity that rock listening had become. Here are salutes, elegies, thank-you notes, and love letters to records such as the Rolling Stones' \u003ci\u003eBeggars Banquet\u003c\/i\u003e , the Ramones' \u003ci\u003eRocket to Russia,\u003c\/i\u003e Captain Beefheart's \u003ci\u003eTrout Mask Replica, Something Else By the Kinks,\u003c\/i\u003e and out-of-print classics by the Ronettes, Little Willie John, and Huey 'Piano' Smith; the whole is supplemented with Marcus's own invaluable annotated fifty-page discography, a \"Treasure Island\" of rock and roll. \u003ci\u003eStranded\u003c\/i\u003e remains a classic of rock and roll literature, and perhaps the best possible answer to the question: What one rock and roll \u003ci\u003ebook\u003c\/i\u003e would you take to a desert island?","brand":"Da Capo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44891049820389,"sku":"NP9780306815324","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/stranded-isbn-9780306815324","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
