Rate this book
از الویس پریسلی، بیتل‌ها، باب دیلن، التون جان، ... چه می‌دانیم؟ راک‌اندرول چیست؟ زمزمه‌ی عشق یا نعره‌ی تنفر؟ بانگ آزادی یا ضجه‌ی رقت‌بار بردگی؟ نماد غرب‌زدگی یا الگویی برای پیشرفت موسیقی ملی؟
راک‌اندرول هرچه باشد و هرطور آن‌را تعریف کنیم، یک‌چیز مسلم است و آن این است‌که این‌موسیقی پس‌از ظهور انفجارمانندش در اواسط سال‌های پنجاهِ سده‌ی بیست در امریکا، به‌دلیل خاصیت فراملیتی و فراعقیدتی‌اش، خیلی‌زود به کشورهای دیگر نیز سرایت کرد، و باید اعتراف کنیم که امروز آرام‌آرام به صحنه‌ی موسیقی کشور ما نیز پا می‌گذارد.
این‌کتاب جامع‌ترین و کامل‌ترین کتابی است‌که تاکنون درباره‌ی تاریخچه‌ی موسیقی راک و سیر تحولات آن از ابتدا تا پایان دهه‌ی هفتاد میلادی نوشته شده است

Jeremy Pascall

30 books1 follower
Jeremy Pascall was an English screenwriter, broadcaster, journalist and author. He specialized in writing about humour and rock music, starting his career at the magazine New Musical Express. At 26 he moved on to be a producer at London's Capital Radio. He has written several books.

He was an accomplished music journalist, coming of age in the '60s. He interviewed all the big rock stars of the time (he had extremely funny stories of time spent with Mickey Dolenz of The Monkees fame) and was an integral part of the avant garde group Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band.

He also wrote several books, was a successful DJ at Capitol Radio in London, hosting the shows Vinyl Vaults and The UnEncyclopedia of Rock, before evolving into a talented radio and television comedy writer.

According to a friend, "He was a prickly, cigar smoking, hard drinking, high-flying bon vivant who knew almost everybody important in the worlds of comedy and telly, and everything about English popular culture; and he did NOT suffer fools gladly."

He died on 30 August 2001 from throat cancer.

Слишком претенциозно. Чем ближе к концу, тем больше очевидно, что автор пытается навязывать свой вкус.
