Aprašymas

This book examines the American Sixties, and how that period's socio-political essence was reflected and refracted in certain forms of the period's music. Its five main chapters bear the names of familiar musical categories: 'Folk, ' 'Rock, ' 'Jazz, ' 'Avant-Garde, ' 'Classical.' But the book's real subject matter--treated at length in the Prologue and the Epilogue but spread throughout all that comes between--is the Sixties' tangled mess of hopes and frustrations, of hungers as much for self-identity as for self-indulgence, of crises of conscience that bothered Americans of almost all ages and regardless of political persuasion.
