Book Description Hard Cover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Dust jacket complete, unclipped, slight wear to edges. Original cloth boards with bright gilt titling on spine. No ownership marks. 533 pages clean and tight. In 1955 rock'n'roll emerged as an . important new musical style which was to capture the imagination of whole societies, become the catalyst of a powerful youth culture, revolutionize popular music and deeply influence all other forms of music. This novel and pervasive cultural force has given rise to a vast range of literature, ranging from hero-worshiping fan magazines to serious critical studies. Popular music since 1955: a critical guide to the literature is the first successful attempt to bring together, organize and assess this substantial body of writing. The work is a critical bibliographical guide to the literature of contemporary popular music published in English since 1955. It includes pen-portraits of many famous rock musicians and groups, and a glossary of terminology. It will be of value to librarians and rock aficionados alike, and to anyone who wishes to approach a twentieth-century phenomenon via its literature. Chapter titles: General works; Social aspects of popular music; Artistic aspects of popular music; The popular-music business; Forms of popular music; Lives and works; Fiction; Periodicals. Size: 8vo. Seller Inventory # 142662
