45 Tours Rock #[nn]

Hervé Bourhis channels pure rock energy in this 2012 Dargaud release, its cover featuring a young guitarist mid-leap — orange lightning-bolt tee, electric guitar in hand — launching himself above a giant spinning vinyl record while a crowd surges behind him. The image perfectly captures the spirit of the title: the raw, youthful charge of rock 'n' roll compressed into the fleeting spin of a 45. A stylish, kinetic package for anyone who's ever felt a great riff lift them off their feet.
