Produktbeschreibung

'Adult Reactions to Popular Music and Inter-generational Relations in Britain, 1955-1975' constitutes a thematic examination of the pervasive assumption that 'the older generation' reacted in a largely negative fashion to music styles popular with British young people from the 1950s to the mid-1970s (including rock 'n' roll, skiffle, 'beat' and rock music) and that the music invariably exacerbated inter-generational tensions.
