Rock’s Hidden Persuader: The Truth About Backmasking
Peters, Peters, and Merrill
1985
Submitter: I found this blast from the past hanging out in our collection. No one has checked it out for about five years. It’s called Rock’s Hidden Persuaders! It’s all about finding satanic messages on records if you play them backwards and it’s from the 80s.
Holly: Love it! Here’s another one of those totally interesting books that people of my generation and slightly older would love to flip through, no matter what stance they take on backmasking. Clearly, though, they aren’t if it hasn’t been checked out in five years. Fewer and fewer people have records or record players anymore, and teenagers may not even be aware of what backmasking is. I’d weed it (and then immediately buy it from the Friends of the Library book sale)!
