[Eric · Rating 3 out of 5]

Frith makes some interwesting connections between the fields of pop music, pop culture, mass opinion and the scholarship that holds so much of this together.

[Patricia · Rating 2 out of 5]

Simon Frith tiene dos o tres ideas interesantes. Su problema es que las repite libro a libro, vengan o no al caso, creando un entramado argumentativo forzado y errático.
