The Guardian, 2/5/07 - Hendrix to Oasis tourist trail: putting England's rock locations on the map | The Guardian: "A new map of England's rock and pop heritage aims to celebrate nearly 200 destinations linked to famous musicians, from Britpop boozer The Good Mixer in Camden to Jimi Hendrix's 1960s London address to Knebworth House, venue for Queen's last concert....
The aim was to be as exhaustive as possible while keeping to the rule that each location had to have something tangible for fans to see, even if only a commemorative plaque. The printed version of the map features 113 locations while the website at www.enjoyengland.com/rocks has 190, along with audio samples. Some of the more offbeat inclusions on the list have prompted raised eyebrows among rock pundits."
