"Although the two artists do not know each other or yet know of each other's work, the paintings of Mary tillman Smith and the quilts of Mary Taylor have much in common. They share the bright, contrasting color, bold shapes, and varied and broken rhythmic patterns considered by some scholars to be characteristic of Afro-American art...These elderly Mississippi artists have only rather recently turned to art as a means of personal expression. Despite the relentless hardship of their lives, their work reveals an astonishing creative vitality, imaginative freedom, and a clear, bright expression of their joy in life which leaps barriers of race, class, culture, education, and language...they have both discovered a universal language of art which reduces to insignificance petty and invidious distinctions between art and craft, fine art and folk art." -- James Smith Pierce, page 3.

By the time Jimi Hendrix died in 1970, the idea of a black man playing lead guitar in a rock band seemed exotic. Yet a mere ten years earlier, Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley had stood among the most influential rock and roll performers. Why did rock and roll become “white”? Just around Midnight reveals the interplay of popular music and racial thought that was responsible for this shift within the music industry and in the minds of fans. Rooted in rhythm-and-blues pioneered by black musicians, 1950s rock and roll was racially inclusive and attracted listeners and performers across the color line. In the 1960s, however, rock and roll gave way to rock: a new musical ideal regarded as more serious, more artistic—and the province of white musicians. Decoding the racial discourses that have distorted standard histories of rock music, Jack Hamilton underscores how ideas of “authenticity” have blinded us to rock’s inextricably interracial artistic enterprise. According to the standard storyline, the authentic white musician was guided by an individual creative vision, whereas black musicians were deemed authentic only when they stayed true to black tradition. Serious rock became white because only white musicians could be original without being accused of betraying their race. Juxtaposing Sam Cooke and Bob Dylan, Aretha Franklin and Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix and the Rolling Stones, and many others, Hamilton challenges the racial categories that oversimplified the sixties revolution and provides a deeper appreciation of the twists and turns that kept the music alive.
