9798765101957: Ink on the Tracks: Rock and Roll Writing

Synopsis

This book embraces the multiplicity of forms of writing inspired by rock and roll. Exploring a diverse range of formats including rock autobiography and gender, race and class in American rock journalism, rock obituaries, rock literature and spirituality, rock writing and promotion/packaging, and more, this book identifies and prioritizes writing forms often excluded from the categorization of rock music writing. Vitally, the volume places rock and roll writing within a wider cultural frame often overlooked by studies of traditional white male-led music journalism.
