Shovelin' charts the label's highs and lows-from its highly successful hosting of the annual Garageshock, arguably the greatest series of garage rock \"festivals,\" to the devastating loss of its warehouse in a fire. Estrus is one of the few record labels whose cover art and other graphics match the brilliance of its music, thanks to the contributions of trash-culture visionary Art Chantry. Packed with iconic visuals the book draws on lively, extensive interviews, never-seen-before archival photos, oddball artifacts, and more, to give a fascinating insight into the major players behind one of garage rock's most influential and successful independent record labels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChris Alpert Coyle \u003c\/b\u003eis a nomadic journalist whose work has appeared on CBS News, CBS Radio, WGN, The Inlander and KEXP.
