Waking Up in New York City

The most beguiling city in the world, New York City is an adrenaline-charged, history-laden place that resonates with the hustle and vibrancy of a city that's open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Nowhere has rock 'n' roll been more associated with one city than this one, where it came from the streets - from the coffee houses of Greenwich Village, the blue-collar angst of New Jersey, and downright groove of Harlem. Take a tour of the city with music journalist Mike Evans as he finds the musical delights NYC has to offer the tourist. Including interviews with musicians, writers, poets, studio crew and performers on the street, the guide is packed with information on travel, accommodation, eating out and where to go party and hear great music.
