This book examines the American Sixties, and how that period's
socio-political essence was reflected and refracted in certain
forms of the period's music. Its five main chapters bear the names
of familiar musical categories: 'Folk,' 'Rock,' 'Jazz,'
'Avant-Garde,' 'Classical.' But the book's real subject
matter-treated at length in the Prologue and the Epilogue but
spread throughout all that comes between-is the Sixties' tangled
mess of hopes and frustrations, of hungers as much for
self-identity as for self-indulgence, of crises of conscience that
bothered Americans of almost all ages and regardless of political
persuasion.
