| Abstract |
This set brings together essential scholarship on pop music, from its music-hall origins, through to the present-day proliferation of musical styles resulting from the break-down of traditional genres such as country, rock, pop, and soul. In the wide range of articles he has collected here, editor and well-known music scholar Simon Frith selects key pieces from leading sociology and cultural studies journals as well as influential music publications, allowing students and researchers to explore the topics from diverse social science perspectives. This unique resource provides invaluable context on the heritage of the music, the impact of Napster and other developments that have galvanized the music industry in recent years, the culture industry, and much more. |
