Editorial Review:
Since the sixties, musicians have been outspoken and powerful proponents for social change, making them a threat to those eager to maintain the status quo. Typically fond of drugs, they also make easy targets for investigation and exploitation. In this comprehensive look at more than a dozen suspect rock star deaths, conspiracy researcher Alex Constantine delves into the secrets that the record industry, organized crime, and even the FBI and CIA don't want uncovered. Unearthing recent - and successful - assassination plots against Tupac Shakur and The Notorious B.I.G. as well as new information on the tragic deaths of Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, and John Lennon, this long-overdue report offers disturbing evidence that there may be more behind these deaths than accident, psychosis, and indulgence.

Rating:  - What the CIA is doing right now against political activists
One of the reviewers said there are other rock star deaths Alex Constantine didn't mention. True. Constantine's ¨Anti-Fascist research Bin¨ web site shows deaths of a young journalist(Duncan) and her boyfriend. If you follow this story to Bill Knott's blog, a professor from Emerson College writes that Duncan's death was not a suicide, and says, ¨They killed Theresa Duncan for trying to expose them, and they'll kill me for the same reason.¨ A professor worried about being killed! I would not ... Read More
Rating:  - connecting the dots
Many elements of the truth here, but realize that the forces that do entertainers in are (95% of the time) the SAME FORCES that created them. Music has been used for subversive activity for THOUSANDS of years and "modern" rock and roll is more like a re-discovery of sorts by the Elite controllers. Sound frequency can have very specific effects on people, and many of them are not even discernable to the conscious mind. Thus, subliminal programming of music is crucial, and the creation of certain "beats" ... Read More
Rating:  - Good but not great read. Interesting none the less.
The Covert War Against Rock explores the unanswered questions and disinformation surrounding the deaths of several rock stars. This was good, but not great. Lots of interesting stuff in this but I think in most of these cases Constantine tries way too hard to connect the dots and show government and/or organized crime complicity in some of these deaths. Just because the FBI had a file on them or they associated with gangsters in the music business doesn't mean they were murdered. That being said, although ... Read More
Rating:  - Alex is insane
What a terrible book. To even entertain the theory that Bob Marley died b/c the CIA INJECTED melanoma skin cancer into him is insane. It can not be done, so to push that conspiracy is plain irresponsible.
Bad excuse for a book. The author is a joke.
Rating: - Dopey people on dope.
You'll get no congratulations here on your book: This is just another paranoid attempt to slam the U.S. government, for the deaths of some dopey rockers on dope. Wake up" there should be no big mystery as to why these people died. They all lived lives of excess filled with drugs and alcohol, a bunch of fallen stars who burned out way before their time, except for lennon and topac who were shot to death, the others died the way they lived FAST" You see there's no big mystery to their deaths after all, ...
