This volume examines the location of memories and histories of
popular music and its multiple pasts, exploring the different
'places' in which popular music can be situated, including the
local physical site, the museum storeroom and exhibition space, and
the digitized archive and display space made possible by the
internet. Contributors from a broad range of disciplines such as
archive studies, popular music studies, media and cultural studies,
leisure and tourism, sociology, museum studies, communication
studies, cultural geography, and social anthropology visit the
specialized locus of popular music histories and heritage, offering
diverse set of approaches. Popular music studies has increasingly
engaged with popular music histories, exploring memory processes
and considering identity, collective and cultural memory, and
notions of popular culture's heritage values, yet few accounts have
spatially located such trends to focus on the spaces and places
where we encounter and engender our relationship with popular
music's history and legacies. This book offers a timely
re-evaluation of such sites, reinserting them into the narratives
of popular music and offering new perspectives on their function
and significance within the production of popular music heritage.
Bringing together recent research based on extensive fieldwork from
scholars of popular music studies, cultural sociology, and museum
studies, alongside the new insights of practice-based
considerations of current practitioners within the field of popular
music heritage, this is the first collection to address the
interdisciplinary interest in situating popular music histories,
heritages, and pasts. The book will therefore appeal to a wide and
growing academic readership focused on issues of heritage, cultural
memory, and popular music, and provide a timely intervention in a
field of study that is engaging scholars from across a broad
spectrum of disciplinary backgrounds and theoretical perspectives.
