Reviews
Description
An addictively readable, encyclopedic history of pop music in chapters
as short and adrenaline-fueled as the best pop songs themselves.
to argue with as to quote from, Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! is divided
into sixty-five brief, chronological chapters about individual
songs, bands, musical scenes, and styles from Bill Haley & the
Comets’s “Rock Around the Clock” (1954) to Beyoncé’s first
megahit, “Crazy in Love” (2003). Bob Stanley—music critic,
pop fan, and musician—recounts the progression of bands
from the Beach Boys to the Pet Shop Boys to the Beastie Boys,
explores what connects doo-wop to the sock hop to hip hop,
and reveals how technological changes have affected pop
production.
For anyone who has ever thrilled to the opening chord of
the Beatles’s “A Hard Day’s Night” or the bubbly beginning
of Cyndi Lauper’s “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun,” Yeah! Yeah!
Yeah! is a vital guide to the rich soundtrack of the second half
of the twentieth century.
