'I have read pretty much every rock 'n' roll biography there is worth reading, and you never know what to expect when you pick up a new book. Well, let me tell you Mark Weiss has raised the bar for rock 'n' roll books with The Decade That Rocked. Mark has always been at the top of his field, and the level of detail and quality put into this book is the ultimate testament to his rock n' roll photographic legacy.' Sebastian Bach

'Mark is the real deal. He may not play the guitar, but that camera is his guitar. He's a rockstar. Gene Simmons

'Mark's energy, his creativity, his drive, his positive attitude and his enthusiasm that make him one of the legends of rock photography. It's why his work-both old and new-is still so in demand today. Mark Weiss inspires greatness in all he turns his camera lens on. But don't take my word for it. Just look at the pictures in this book.' Dee Snider

'His pictures say as much as the music' Rob Halford

'He was one of the guys. He wasn't one of the 18 photographers you'd work with that day.' Alice Cooper

'He had that instinct, to recognize our energy and use his technical talent to capture it.' Joe Perry
