Reviews
Eric Weisbard has long been one of my favorite music historians and writers. His professorial love for both the high and lowbrow and its relevance to the trends and movements that followed; that mixed with his punchy minimalistic voice makes a great combination., This is a both entertaining and informative traversal of the evolution of pop/rock, exemplified in one well-remembered song. [It] will likely appeal to both music scholars and readers investigating the intersection of race and society in the U.S., Bringing together the music of Big Mama Thornton, Elvis, Patti Page, Iggy Pop, George Clinton, DMX, Nirvana, and Patti Smith, among others, Eric Weisbard steers us through some of the most contentious debates in the American pop music landscape and somehow manages to make it a joyride. As witty as it is bighearted, Hound Dog reminds us that a favorite song--sometimes heard against the grain--can remake us and also remake worlds., Eric Weisbard has long been one of my favorite music historians and writers.
