ISBN10: 150133526X, ISBN13: 9781501335266, [publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing Plc, New York] Hardcover Hardcover. Brian Wilson and The Beach Boys, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, and Paul Simonthese familiar figures have written road music for half a century and continue to remain highly-regarded artists. But there is so much more to say about road music. This book fills a glaring hole in scholarship about the road and music. In a collection of 13 essays, Music and the Road explores the origins of road music in the blues, country-western, and rock n roll; the themes of adventure, freedom, mobility, camaraderie, and love, and much more in this music; the mystique and reality of touring as an important part of getting away from home, creating community among performers, and building audiences across the country from the 1930s to the present; and the contribution of music to popular road films such as Bonnie and Clyde, Easy Rider, Thelma and Louise, and On the Road. A historical and thematic overview of 20th-century road music, with a focus on blues, country-western, and rock 'n' roll.
