Description

In Jersey Metal Frank and Alan team up to offer a unique, autobiographical perspective on NJ's Heavy Metal music history through photos, ads, interviews and band bios. Jersey Metal Volume One covers the early years from 1969 through 1986. The book focuses not just on artists and bands from the Garden State but also world-wide acts, local original, cover as well as tribute bands that played NJ. There is also respect paid to the venues these groups frequented, the radio stations, record companies, stores and the Jersey shore that all helped grow New Jersey's wild Heavy Metal scene.
