Salamon pens a new book
April 7, 2015
Ed Salamon who penned Pittsburgh’s Golden Age of Radio (2010 Arcadia Publishing), has written a new book called Pittsburgh’s Golden Age of Rock ‘n’ Roll (2015 Archer Books). The book includes more than 325 photos memorializing nearly 1000 Pittsburghers who made Rock ‘n’ Roll music between the 1950s and 1970s. Although not about radio, the book features ties to local radio personalities from Porky Chedwick to Art Pallan. The forward is written by Crescent Township native Lou Christie.
The book can be ordered at any book store or Amazon.com.
Salamon will be hosting a book signing at Barnes and Noble in Settlers Ridge at 6:00 p.m. on Wednesday, April 22.
The Jaggerz’ Jimmie Ross will be joining me and others in the book for a panel before the April 22 signing at Barnes and Noble Settlers Ridge..
A second panel/signing has been added at Mt. Lebanon Public Library on Monday, April 27th at 7:00 pm. Johnny Angel will be one of the participants on that night’s panel. The Dantes, whose “Top Down Time” charted at KDKA for three weeks in June 1965, will sing acapella at the start of each event
