"Doo Wop" captures the spirit of an era in spectacular visuals, revealing the roots of the 60's music explosion with abundant background information and enticing images. The 50's were rich in cultural events and iconic performances and this landmark volume traces the development of the music, politics, art, architecture and popular culture throughout this exciting and remarkable period. Each chapter delves into one or more years and focuses on the transformative events of the day. You'll meet the pioneers who started it all, see Marlon Brando roar in to transform squeaky-clean youth in Italicise; discover how the songs we love emerged from African rhythms and culture; look at the 50's sex symbols, like Bardot and Monroe; and watch the music grow up.
