Publisher's Synopsis

For undergraduate courses in Popular Music, Music History, Recent American History, Sociology, and American Ethnic Studies.

This text offers an in-depth examination of the social history of rock-and-roll. Rockin' in Time emphasizes several main themes, including the importance of African-American culture in the origins and development of rock music, the economy, technology, and the changing demographics of the youth market. Tracing rock from its inception-from American blues to the present-this book shows how rock-and-roll has reflected and sometimes changed American and British culture over the last fifty years.
