WHITE LIGHT/WHITE HEAT<br />

The Velvet Underground Day by Day<br />

Jawbone Press (Berkeley, CA, <strong>2009</strong>)<br />

By turns fiercely confrontational, literate, primitive<br />

and sweetly melodic, “The Velvet Underground”<br />

remain one of the most influential bands in the history<br />

of rock. The ultimate cult band and the ultimate art<br />

rock experience, the “VU’s” music and style have<br />

served as a blueprint for everyone from David Bowie<br />

to “The Jesus and Mary Chain.” Yet for all their<br />

enduring importance, they were unsuccessful in their<br />

day, selling minute numbers of records, with their<br />

monochrome look and photo-realist lyrics at odds<br />

with the garish colors and peace fantasies of the hippy<br />

era. It was only when David Bowie started to<br />

champion the band in the early 70s, after they had<br />

split up, that the “VU’s” reputation started to spread.<br />

In “White Light/White Heat,” noted rock writer and<br />

historian Richie Unterberger analyses the band’s<br />

career and influence in detail, drawing on many new<br />

interviews with band members and associates,<br />

previously undiscovered archive sources and a vast<br />

knowledge of the music of the times. The result is a<br />

comprehensive, articulate, immensely detailed history<br />

- the most thorough work on the band yet published.<br />

HOW THE BEATLES DESTROYED<br />

ROCK AND ROLL<br />

An Alternative History of American<br />

Popular Music<br />

Oxford University Press (Cary, NC, <strong>2009</strong>)<br />

First Edition. As its blasphemous title suggests, “How<br />

the Beatles Destroyed Rock ‘n Roll” rejects the<br />

conventional pieties of mainstream jazz and rock<br />

history. Rather than concentrating on those<br />

traditionally favored styles, the book traces the<br />

evolution of popular music through developing<br />

tastes, trends and technologies - including the role of<br />

records, radio, jukeboxes and television - to give a<br />

fuller, more balanced account of the broad variety of<br />

music that captivated listeners over the course of the<br />

twentieth century. Paper, 336 p.<br />

Young, John Bell<br />

LISZT: A LISTENER’S GUIDE<br />

Amadeus Press (<strong>New</strong> York, NY, <strong>2009</strong>)<br />

Composer, bon vivant, pianist, teacher, superstar<br />

showman, raconteur, writer, entrepreneur, ladies’<br />

man, philanthropist, and priest, Franz Liszt is widely<br />

viewed today not only as a great composer, but also as<br />

the greatest pianist of the 19th century. Yet his<br />

enormous body of piano music, by turns poetic,<br />

glittering, acrobatic, prophetic, profound, and<br />

haunting, failed to command the acclaim it deserved<br />

in his lifetime. In “Liszt,” John Bell Young takes a close<br />

look at this opulent music, illuminating its many<br />

facets and challenges from a pianist’s engaged<br />

perspective. Paperback, 152 p. with CD.<br />
