In Concert: KSHE and 40+ Years of Rock in St. Louis / John Neiman. 288 pp.
A heavily illustrated book that not only discusses KSHE and its history, but also talks about the history of rock music, concerts, etc. in St. Louis from 1967 (when KSHE switched to a rock format) onwards. Lots of interesting stuff. The book is well-researched, if not terribly well written. I think my favorite part was finding out that there was a live music club in the basement of an IGA store in Ferguson from 1967 to 1970--the Castaway--that routinely drew 1000 people to its shows.
