Books
Trynka has written or co-written the books Electric Guitar (1993), Portrait of the Blues (1996) and Denim (2001).Dwight Garner described it as "a better-than-average rock biography, but just barely".[7]
Trynka wrote Sympathy for the Devil: The Birth of the Rolling Stones and the Death of Brian Jones, a 2014 biography of
Rolling Stones guitarist Brian Jones.[8] The book was published in the United States as Brian Jones: The Making of the Rolling Stones.[8] In his review for The New York Times, Larry Rohter said the book "challenges the standard version of events" by recognising Jones' importance on a par with Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, and added: "Though Mr. Trynka sometimes overstates Jones’s long-term cultural impact, his is revisionist history of the best kind – scrupulously researched and cogently argued – and should be unfailingly interesting to any Stones fan."[8]
