In 2001 the Guinness Book of Records declared Liverpool 'City of
Pop', the City that has produced more hit records than anywhere
else. But why is Liverpool so important musically and how has it
sustained its importance from the Beatles to the Zutons via Echo
and the Bunnymen, Cream, The La's and others?
The Beat Goes On is a critical historical account of popular music
in Liverpool which explores the contextual, creative and
geographical factors that have contributed to the city's status as
a major centre of creativity within Anglo-Amercian popular music.
Rather than attempting to create a singular linear account of the
history of popular music and its cultures within the city the book
will take a thematic and case-study approach which will offer a new
approach to the study of the subject. The book is therefore
necessarily interdisciplinary with contributions from experts from
the field of popular music history, cultural geography, ethnography
and musicology, alongside essays and interviews with Liverpool
musicians.
