Description

The Sound of The City: 'The Classic History of Rock by Charlie Gillett. Revised Edition. 'First published in 1971. The Sound of the City achieved instant recognition as the first study of the rock and roll phenomenon. No longer could this music be easily dismissed, but took its rightful place in the total pattern of popular music history. In the succeeding twelve years, the author has met and interviewed many of the protagonists of this story and has extensively revised the book to take account of their experience and insights. The result is an unparalled survey in depth of the revolution that took place in popular music between the early fifties and the beginning of the seventies, exploring the wave of strident, emotional sounds that swept the Western world, carrying a whole generation of young people in its wake.'
