Has the global phenomenon that is Pop Idol completely ruined pop
music, or is it just the natural revolution of a genre of music
that has always been manufactured? From Tin Pan Alley via The
Monkees and finally to boy bands, this is the complete history of
the most successful genre of music ever.;Manufactured acts have
been the money-spinning mainstay of the pop industry for decades.
"Bubblegum: The History of Plastic Pop" takes a decade-by-decade
look at some of the music industry's more cynical creations from
the 1950s to the 21st century, encompassing acts such as The
Monkees, The Bay City Rollers and The Spice Girls, as well as the
phenomenon that is Pop Idol and its siblings. This revealing study
includes interviews with the movers and shakers of the pop world
and the artistic armies behind their successes, including Chinn and
Chapman, Stock, Aitken and Waterman, Simon Fuller, Paula Abdul and
Cathy Dennis. The result is a comprehensive look back at some of
the fly-by-nights of pop and a DIY guide to becoming a pop star,
listing the dos and don'ts of making it in the pop music industry.
