YEAH YEAH YEAH: THE STORY OF MODERN POP(UK版){US版本书名:YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!: THE STORY OF POP MUSIC FROM BILL HALEY TO BEYONCE }

Book ID/图书代码: 04560013B62881

English Summary/英文概要: A complete history of Western Pop from pre- rock ‘n’ roll to the present: the scale is staggering; Stanley’s breadth and depth of knowledge, breath-taking.

Modern pop began in 1952 when the first British chart was published and the first 7" singles were released. It ended (perhaps) in 1995 when Robson and Jerome reached the top of the charts with the first number one not to be available on vinyl since 1953. The internet age ushered in the death rites of over 40 years of pop.

A Complete History Pop describes the journey that leads from ’Rock Around the Clock’ to ’Crazy in Love’. Raw, thrilling, surprising and sometimes downright dangerous, the Pop moment almost always clocks in under 3:30 and is initially, immediately recognised by a teenage listener.

Billy Fury. Chuck Berry. Sonny and Cher. The Troggs. Glen Campbell. Bee Gees. Roxy Music. Chic. Slade. Sex Pistols. Adam and the Ants. Pet Shop Boys. New Order. Madonna. Bob Stanley’s A Complete History of Pop documents the rich soundtrack of the last six decades as it has been heard on radios and jukeboxes across the land.

There have been many books on pop but very few, if any, have attempted to bring the whole story to life from rock n roll to house and techno in all its various sub-permutations. Audacious and addictive, A Complete History of Pop is a one-stop pop shop for the music lover everywhere.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 本书是英国著名独立音乐人及音乐记者鲍勃·斯坦利(Bob Stanley)的作品,以涉及内容之丰富而著称。在时间上,它涵盖了整个20世纪下半叶几乎所有流行音乐流派和重要音乐家;在空间上,它立足英国与美国,进而辐射到整个欧美世界。

这虽然不是一部严格学术意义上的流行音乐史,但作者从参与者和观察者的多重视角,向读者描绘了一副关于现代流行音乐发展的宏大图景,并贯穿其内部脉络、时间节点,呈现其事件缘由、相互关联,还有诸多已然被忽略和遗忘的史料碎片。写作这些生动的“故事”,作者旨在揭示流行音乐从哪里来,并促使人们进一步思考,流行音乐将往哪里去。(DB)

Awards/获奖情况:The key to Yeah Yeah Yeah is the mix of erudition and brilliantly sharp perspective; a mind equally intrigued by Bill Haley and Beyoncé. Delightful and illuminating, this is the pop answer to The Rest is Noise. (Roy Wilkinson MOJO 2013-09-30)

A book every bit as well researched and infectiously enthusiastic as you would expect ...From A&M to ZTT, Stanley has missed nothing and Yeah Yeah Yeah excels at offering both a broad overview of the subject as well as a devilishly detailed account. Either read the thing from cover to cover or dip in and out according to mood, but do check out the story of modern pop, because it’s one that will never be told again. (Lee Bullman Loud and Quiet 2013-10-01)
