Review :
This book is a milestone in the study of rockumentary as a genre and the way it reflects history, gender and politics. It takes us through the almost uncharted land of this important genre: from early forms of mediated music, to the breakthrough in the 1960s and into the digital era. It is a rich and illuminating analysis of rockumentary and its cultural context.
