Summary: Fabulous Book!
Review: This is one of the best pieces of cultural criticism I've read in years. It is very readable and extremely intelligent. Makes good use of Frankfurt School and others to understand dimension of class in rock and roll and art, primarily of 60's on. Highlights are terrific analysis of use of rock and roll in film, and an excellent analysis of Warhol. Highly recommended for those seriously interested in good pop culture criticism.
