THE HISTORY OF CANADIAN ROCK ’N’ ROLL
Book ID/图书代码： 05793015B78318
English Summary/英文概要： Rock and roll was born in the United States during the 1950s. Its popularity rapidly grew, spreading across the Atlantic to England. The Brits transformed rock, bringing it back to the States in a new form with the British Invasion. Since that time, the two countries have dominated headlines and histories, in terms of rock music. What’s often forgotten in these histories is the evolution of Canadian rock and roll during the same period. Over the years, a huge contingent of Canadian artists has made invaluable contributions to rock and roll. The list of innovative Canadian artists is quite impressive: Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, Paul Anka, Arcade Fire, The Band, Bryan Adams, Rush, Leonard Cohen, Celine Dion, Diana Krall, Gordon Lightfoot, Sarah McLachlan, Alanis Morissette, Tegan and Sara, Feist, Nickelback, and many others, not to mention the all-star producers, such as Daniel Lanois (U2, Bob Dylan, Peter Gabriel), Bob Rock (Metallica, Aerosmith, Bon Jovi), Bob Ezrin (Pink Floyd, Alice Cooper, Kiss), and David Foster (Michael Jackson, Celine Dion). The History of Canadian Rock ’n’ Roll is a lively, entertaining, and largely untold tale. Bob Mersereau presents a streamlined, informative trip through the country’s rich history and depth of talent, from the 1950s to today, covering such topics as: Toronto’s club scene, the folk rock and psychedelic rock of the 1960s, Canadian artists who hit major stardom in the United States, the challenges and reform of the Canadian broadcasting system, the huge hits of the 1970s, Canadian artists’ presence all over the pop charts in the 1990s, and Canada’s indie-rock renaissance of the 2000s.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 摇滚诞生于20世纪50年代的美国。因为大受欢迎而迅速发展，并传播到了大西洋彼岸的英国。英国人改造了摇滚，以一种全新的形式，伴随着英国的入侵带入国内。从那时起，这两个国家就以摇滚音乐的方式，占据了报纸和历史的头条。在这段历史进程中人们常常遗忘的确是加拿大摇滚音乐在同期的发展进化历程。在这些年间，由加拿大艺术家们所组成的巨大代表团为摇滚音乐的发展做出了难以估量的贡献。这群创新派加拿大艺术家们的名单是十分惊人的：尼尔·杨，乔尼·米歇尔，保罗·安卡，奥凯德·法尔，The Band, 布莱恩·亚当斯， Rush, 里奥纳德·克汗，席琳·迪翁，戴安娜·克拉尔，戈登·莱特福德，萨拉·马克拉克兰，阿拉尼斯·莫里赛特， Tegan and Sara, Feist, 尼科尔巴克等许多，更不用提诸如丹尼尔·拉诺思(U2, 鲍勃·迪伦,皮特·加布里埃尔)，鲍勃·洛克 (梅塔莉卡， 史密斯飞船，宝·乔维), 鲍勃·艾子林（平克·弗洛伊德，爱丽丝·库珀，吉斯）以及大卫·福斯特（迈克尔·杰克逊，席琳·迪翁）等打造了诸多明星的金牌制作人。加拿大摇滚的历史是有趣的，却鲜少为人们所传道。鲍勃·梅塞罗将带领我们进行一次绵延不绝且内容丰富的探究之旅，通过这一国家的丰富历史及深刻的才华，从20世纪50年代直至今天，并将涵盖有以下话题：多伦多的俱乐部场景，六十年代的民俗摇滚与迷幻摇滚，在美国成名的加拿大艺术家，加拿大广播系统的挑战与变革，七十年代的大热，九十年代时出现在各大流行榜单的加拿大艺人，以及二十世纪加拿大独立摇滚的复兴。（DC）
