Description: Revolt into Style: The Pop Arts By George MellyPublished By Anchor Books, 1971-Paperback-VG plus condition 'The first serious attempt to analyse pop culture by someone who was part of it.' Julian Mitchell,GuardianThe redoubtable George Melly (1926-2007): flamboyant jazz singer, sexually ambiguous raconteur, prodigiously gifted critic. In the early sixties, at the birth of what we now recognise as the pop revolution,Melly began work as a broadsheet journalist, commenting upon this new cultural phenomenon. Revolt Into Style (1970) is his first-hand account of those turbulent and exciting years when all things creative - whether music, fashion, film, art or literature - were changed utterly.Central to the book are The Beatles - the epitome of the swinging sixties - who charted the decade's changes and about whose significance the Liverpudlian Melly had a special feel and insight. Alongside the Fab Four is a large cast of movers and shakers, of wannabes and tastemakers, all dissected by Melly's surgical mind. (Amazon book review)
