Rock 'n Roll is the first music to span generations. What youth enjoyed in the '20s was ignored in the '30s. Music from the '30s was ignored in the '40s and so on - that is until Rock 'n' Roll hit the mainstream in the 1960s. Every generation wants a music they can call their own. The difference with Rock 'n' Roll is that new generations embrace what's past as well as present.This volume brings each decade of Rock to life, and additionally includes chapters on Elvis, The Beatles, Music in the Video Age, Rock Festivals, Women in Rock, and lots of urban legends... both true and mythic. Rock music reinvents itself regularly and shows no signs of slowing down.

A concise yet comprehensive account of the origins and evolution of rock music, emphasizing its interaction with social change and cultural trends. The narrative begins with ``the birth of the blues'' and proceeds to discuss the major (and mention the minor) performers and to identify the significant styles. These include Fifties rockabilly, folk/protest, the British Invasion, acid rock, punk/New Wave, and Eighties revivalism. Using a lively, anecdotal approach and pertinent quotes, the author examines the appropriate political, economic, technological, or psychological context of each topic, e.g., the relationship between Dylan's music and JFK's New Frontier. A primary focus throughout is on the contributions of blacks and the role of racism. Paul Feehan, Univ. of Miami Lib., Coral Gables, Fla. - Library Journal.
