Synopsis
What influences the people who influence us? To answer that question, Rolling Stone created the Raves column - a forum for popular recording artists to discuss their influences, favorite movies, books, bands, foods, clothes, countries, stories and albums (and that's just a short list of subjects). Raves: What Your Rock & Roll Favorites Favor is a collection of anecdotes, rants, rages, gushes and testimonials from the artists who, for better or worse, have shaped our times. Whether you're looking to get turned on to a great singer, movie or book, or you're just curious about what inspires everyone from Bo Diddley to Jerry Garcia to 0zzy 0sbourne to Sean "Puffy" Combs to Bjork, Raves is a must for anyone who, to paraphrase MTV Veejay Matt Pinfield's preface, wants to feel a spiritual and soulful connection to the artists who touch our lives with music.
