“Comprehensive in its coverage of different musical movements throughout the period it covers. Provides a thorough introduction to the history of pop music.”

- Gregory Weinstein, Columbia College of Chicago

“Clear and concise writing.”

- Deborah Wilson, Ohio State University, Marion Campus

“It is a great book to stirring up discussions on some important social aspects of the music.”

- Yolanda Williams, Minneapolis Community and Technical College
