Performing Rites: On the Value of Popular Music
Frith, Simon (Professor of English, University of Strathclyde)
Asking what we talk about when we talk about music, the author does not dismiss emotional response and personal taste as inaccessible to the academic critic, but takes these forms of engagement as his subject, disclosing their place at the very centre of the aesthetics that structure our culture.
