A unique collaboration between two of the most challenging voices
studying music today, this volume explores the dual themes of
musical participation and musical mediation. A number of the
authors' most important essays, thoroughly revised and updated, are
introduced and framed by dialogues that supply additional context,
introduce retrospective concerns, and reveal previously unseen
connections. This format expresses the authors' desire for a more
reflexive, experimental discourse on music and society and invites
readers to join their conversations. Music Grooves ranges from
jazz, blues, polka, soul, rock, world beat, rap, karaoke, and other
familiar genres to major scholarly debates in music theory and
popular culture studies. The authors cover vital issues in media
studies, ethnomusicology, popular culture studies, anthropology,
and sociology, while discussing musics from America, Greece, Cuba,
Africa, and Papua New Guinea and artists as diverse as James Brown,
Aretha Franklin, Li'l Wally Jagiello, Bo Diddley, Walt Solek,
Madonna, Paul Simon, Miles Davis, Thelonious Monk, and Billie
Holiday.
