ReviewsDespite the omnipresence of rock and roll in our everyday lives, and no matter the range of personal, social, and political uses to which we put the music, we've only just begun to study it in our schools. Paul Friedlander's Rock and Roll: A Social History comes as a significant contribution to the grassroots efforts aiming to remedy that situation. Friedlander proves a fine guide to the complex history of a cultural form that continues to renew itself and those of us who live with it on all sides." — Warren Zanes, author of Dusty in Memphis and Vice President, The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum Rock and Roll: A Social History stands alone! It is far and away the best study available of the rock music mainstream, and has been made even richer, deeper, and more up-to-date in the new revised edition. Its virtues are many, but I especially appreciate Professor Friedlander's nuanced search for meaning in the music and his sensitivity to the business aspect of the music's art." — Dale Cockrell, Professor of Musicology and American Studies, Vanderbilt University and President, Pa's Fiddle Recordings, LLC Paul Friedlander's Rock and Roll: A Social History has been one of the most accessible surveys of rock and roll's development. This new edition retains its energetic coverage of rock's early decades while updating recent events with two new chapters. It remains an informative and enjoyable introduction to the music and its social context." — Mitchell Hall, Professor of History, Central Michigan University, "Despite the omnipresence of rock and roll in our everyday lives, and no matter the range of personal, social, and political uses to which we put the music, we've only just begun to study it in our schools.
