It's not only rock 'n' roll! It's rock wisdom.
All You Need is Love:
And 99 Other Life Lessons From Classic Rock Songs.
I love this book, All you need is love by Pete Fornatale and Bill Ayres, and give it 5 stars. There are so many little gems inside. I use it as a daily mantra by flipping through the pages and opening to just one page, find a nugget of wisdom for the day just for me from the message it gives. Try it, the feedback it gives really works like magic with this book. I find myself re-reading so many of them. It's deep, cleverly written and inspiring. You also re-learn a lot about the history of classic rock and musicians in a very light manner. You can make this kind of book a friend. Its also the perfect gift for someone special. Although first published in 2000, it reads as a timeless master-piece for your library shelf. Sure hope to see an e-book in the future. Enjoy!

Also just to read up on both these guys via google is quite an experience.
Another book that came out in 2010 just by Pete Fornatale was titled, Back to the garden. The story of Woodstock and how it changed a generation. This I haven't read as yet.
