Haircyclopedia Vol. 2 - The Vault (Volume 2)

Haircyclopedia Vol. 2 - The Vault is the second installment in the Rockcyclopedia series. The book contains profiles for 45 classic bands from the 80s and beyond, from moderate successes like Black N Blue, Odin, Dangerous Toys, and Vandenberg, to more obscure ones like Dizzy Bitch and Diamond Rexx. Each profile contains a list of band members, discographies complete with recommendations, interesting facts, and a biography. The book is printed in black and white and the primary emphasis is on information - this is an encyclopedia, not a coffee table book. Many of the photos are from the collection of David Plastik, a legendary photographer who took pictures of artists in the 80s spanning various genres. Other photos come from Troy Wells, a die-hard fan who took many great amateur photos in the era, and Jo Anna Jackson, a professional Vegas-based photographer.
