"Pop Music-USA"
by Simon V. Anderson

An entertaining look at popular music -- jazz, Broadway, country, and rock -- showing how these musical styles reveal the subterranean shifts in American cultural values and attitudes.

Crisp, clear, accurate information on popular music from 1620 to 2003. Anderson's forty years' experience as a college professor, nightclub pianist, and ten years of research add up to a very strong book. He offers, chapter after chapter, an insider's view of the real meaning of the raw historical evidence. It is a potent mixture, indeed!

2nd Edition, by Simon V. Anderson.

In contrast to traditional musical appreciation books, "The Musical Imperative" treats all fields of music with equal respect, so the reader understands how classical music is different from - but grows out of the same human emotional needs and desires - as the pop and folk styles that make up the musical environment.
