Book Review - Laurel Canyon: The Inside Story of Rock and Roll's Legendary Neighborhood
Given its proximity to Sunset Strip as well its prominence within Los Angeles' music scene, Laurel Canyon has more than a few stories to tell. Admirably, author Michael Walker attempts to bind them all together into a cohesive narrative for his recent book Laurel Canyon: The Inside Story of Rock and Roll's Legendary Neighborhood. Told not chronologically but rather via a series of vignettes, the tale -- which in winding fashion covers a 17-year span from 1964 until 1981 -- slowly assumes an air of cinematic importance as the lives of its central characters become entangled across Walker's jumbled spectrum of time.
