商品描述
An anthology of conversations and essays, memories and commentary from the heyday of British pop music writing.
In its heyday, from the 1960s to the 1980s, the UK music press was the forging ground for a new critical culture, where readers could encounter anything from comics and cult films to new musical forms and radical underground politics. It created an off-mainstream collective cultural commons improvised through a networked subculture of rival weeklies, monthlies, and fanzines, including such titles as NME, Melody Maker, Sounds, Record Mirror, Black Echoes, Black Music, Let It Rock, Street Life, Zigzag, and Smash Hits.
This anthology of conversations and essays, memories and commentary explores how this uncharted space first came about, who put it together, what it achieved, and where it went. Along the way, it unearths the many surprising worlds explored by this network of young anarchists, dreamers, and agitators who dared to take pop culture seriously, and considers what remains of their critical legacy.

在1960年代到1980年代的全盛時期,英國音樂媒體成為新批評文化的鍛造場,讀者可以接觸到從漫畫和邪典電影到新音樂形式和激進地下政治的各種內容。它創造了一個非主流的集體文化共享空間,透過競爭的週刊、月刊和粉絲雜誌的網絡即興而成,包括《NME》、《Melody Maker》、《Sounds》、《Record Mirror》、《Black Echoes》、《Black Music》、《Let It Rock》、《Street Life》、《Zigzag》和《Smash Hits》等標題。
這部對話與散文、回憶與評論的選集探討了這個未被探索的空間是如何形成的,誰將其組合在一起,它達成了什麼,以及它的去向。在這個過程中,它挖掘了這個由年輕的無政府主義者、夢想家和激進分子所探索的許多驚人世界,他們敢於認真對待流行文化,並考慮他們的批評遺產還剩下什麼。
