Tune in to a Left of the Dial version of the world, where sixties icons wage a war of ideals in their mutual struggle to free America from Nazi oppression; where the Beatles never happened, but John Lennon still claimed a musical destiny; where even the most well-intentioned muse can lead you astray. This is a world of post-apocalyptic record reviewers and misfit musicians fighting against a virtual Hell on earth. This is a world where the ghosts of dead rock stars sing along with us one more time. Can't Buy Me Faded Love collects nine stories of rock & roll and twisted history from Texas writer, Josh Rountree.
