Más información sobre el libro

"Someone once said that 'pop music is an argument that anyone can join in'. Ways of Hearing turns that argument into a riotous bar-room brawl, as a frontier town of unruly pop pioneers (from Lee 'Scratch' Perry to Lemmy from Motorhead, from Captain Beefheart to The Chemical Brothers to Sir Cliff Richard) punch it out in a gleeful free-for-all." "Tapping into pop's imaginary world at its intersections with film, TV and literature, Ben Thompson zeroes in on music's power to transform - both those who make it and those who listen to it. Part pop hall of fame, part self-help manual, and part visionary manifesto, Ways of Hearing cuts through the waxy build-up of conventional wisdom and gains direct access to the soul's inner ear."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
