"Stop Rewind Fast Forward: 1992" is the first in this highly detailed history of popular music, broken down by year. In this case, 1992 is examined in detail, with a primary focus on the acts Guns N' Roses and Soundgarden, and how they relate to the overall climate of the era. As the timeline advances and their paths cross, leading to a Dayton, Ohio concert featuring both, their respective bodies of work are considered in detail, as the author puts his own unique spin on what these bands were attempting and whether or not they achieved it. 1992 in music was a year like no other, with everyone ranging from Guns N' Roses to grunge to country to Michael Jackson battling for supremacy in the charts. But it didn't quite happen as you were told.
