Recenzii
Generously expanded to survey the various vibrant prog scenes of the last decade, and to encompass an even wider definition of the fertile borderlands of the genre, this new edition of Beyond and Before offers a gloriously definitive guide to this most eclectic and ambitious form of popular music.
Examining every aspect of progressive rock - words and music, theatre and politics - Hegarty and Halliwell deftly unpick the tangled threads of tradition and radicalism that make up the genre's tapestry. In this expanded update, the authors extend their analysis to adjacent genres and musicians not conventionally seen as 'prog,' making the book even more encompassing and definitive.
Beyond and Before provides a genuinely superb exploration of the amphibious identity of post-60s rock. As an artist who has navigated through various musical subcultures over the years, I am impressed with the broad scope and meticulous research of this comprehensive text.
Beyond and Before is the smartest book ever written on Progressive Rock - and in this expanded and updated edition it's even bigger and better!In their impressively sweeping, transnational account, Hegarty and Halliwell take their readers on an exhilarating journey from the concept albums of Frank Sinatra and Duke Ellington - part of a welcome reintegration of Black musicians into the wider story of Prog that embraces giants such as Marvin Gaye, Miles Davis, Janelle Monáe, Beyoncé, and Frank Ocean - through the seminal recordings of the Beatles, Beach Boys, and Moody Blues, to the classic Prog of Pink Floyd, ELP, PFM, Yes, and King Crimson, the Neo-Prog of Marillion, Kate Bush, and Pallas, and the 21st century work of Radiohead, Joanna Newsom, Porcupine Tree, The Mars Volta, and Sleep.Fascinating, informed, and insightful at every turn, the book rescues the oft-ridiculed Prog from the condescension of history and reminds us of what a protean and globally influential music it has always been - and will continue to be.
Beyond and Before ticks all the boxes in moving the whole discussion forward and providing a 360 degree view on where [progressive rock] began and, more importantly, where its future lies ... This [is a] hugely important book. The depth of detail is mind-blowing and it will take several revisits to even begin to take in many of the key points it makes in its examinations and analyses. You will emerge from it feeling even more enriched and enthused about prog rock. This is highly recommended.
