In this second edition, the author again shows the interrelationship between our attitudes and the music that has evolved from them. He gives his readers a model for appreciating rock and roll as an important facet of American music and proposes a method for analyzing it. You'll be able to develop techniques for listening intelligently and then making accurate Statements about its form. The varied elements of rock and roll--assumptions, methods, social settings, implications--are related to its historical development.
