| Abstract | The story of four landmark albums of 1970, tracing the musical, political, and cultural changes of the time. Set against a backdrop of world-changing historical and political events, this book tells the extraordinary story of one pivotal year in the lives and music of four legendary artists, and reveals how these artists and their songs both shaped and reflected their times. Drawing on interviews, rare recordings, and newly discovered documents, the author allows us to see and hear the elusive moment when the '60s became the '70s in a completely fresh way. |
