The Rock Music Imagination is an exploration of rock artists in
their social and artistic contexts, particularly between 1964 and
1980, and of rock music in relation to literature, that is,
creative expression, fantastic imagination, and contemporary
fiction about rock. Robert McParland analyzes how rock music
touches our imaginative lives by looking at themes that appear in
classic rock music: freedom and liberation, utopia and dystopia,
community, rebellion, the outsider, the quest for transcendence,
monstrosity, erotic and spiritual love, imaginative vision, and
mystery. The Rock Music Imagination explores blues imagination,
countercultural dreams of utopia, rock's critiques of society and
images of dystopia, rock's inheritance from romanticism, science
fiction and mythic imagination in progressive rock, and rock's
global reach and potential to provide hope and humanitarian
assistance.
