Von Händler/Antiquariat, Full Paper Jacket.
From the front flap of this 256 page book: "From Bill Haley's 'Rock Around the Clock' which shocked the world in 1955, to the 'global jukebox' of Live Aid in 1985, this exciting book tells the full story of rock music, and the people who made - and make - it. Rock is more than just a style of music. It reflects the lifestyle and philosophy of the post-war generation, with its seemingly unquenchable thirst for novelty, and its growing political consciousness. By the enormous scope of its appeal, crossing the barriers of age, class, and culture, rock has become perhaps the most vital form of popular culture. Lavishly illustrated with over 300 full-color photographs, [this book] is a stylish, informative, and expert chronicle of 30 years of music. Each chapter opens with a prologue which describes the time and place that gave birth to each style of music; each chapter ends with a summation of the material covered. Here are the musical artists great and small, from Chuck Berry, Gene Vincent, and Elvis Presley, to the Beatles, David Bowie, 'The Boss', and countless others. Practically everyone who was (and is) anyone is included. We're taken back to the beginnings of rock: the generation gap; the first images of youthful rebellion; the first teenage pop songs. Find out about the Supremes and other great Motown artists; the rise of the British beat; Liverpool and the meteoric rise of the 'Fab Four'; Mods and Rockers; Dylan and folk rock; Woodstock and the flower children; the soul tradition and its evolution under Sam Cook, Ray Charles, and James Brown. Author Stephen Barnard brings his survey right up the the present day with coverage of punk rock, New Wave, the video revolution of the 80s, and much more.The lively book provides lots more than simple entertainment - it is certain to be a most welcome addition to the libraries of rock music fans and of anyone interested in learning more about this universal culture.", Hardcover, Label: MacMillan Publishing Company.
