Tomorrow Never Knows: Rock and Psychedelics in the 1960s
ISBN: 9780226075624 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 234 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. "Tomorrow Never Knows" takes us back to the primal scene of the 1960s and asks: what happened when young people got high and listened to rock as if it really mattered as if it offered meaning and sustenance, not just escape and entertainment? What did young people "hear" in the music of Dylan, Hendrix, or the Beatles?
