Rock Goes to College

"Rock Goes to College," by Paul Sexton, chronicles the lively and often amateurish British university gig scene that played a crucial role in launching the careers of many legendary rock bands. Through vivid storytelling and exclusive stories, the book offers an inside look at how young bands honed their craft on the UK circuit, with early performances by iconic acts such as Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Queen, and Elton John. Drawing from Sexton’s extensive industry contacts, the narrative captures the raw energy and atmosphere of this formative period in British music history.
