BLAME IT ON CAIN
WOW!!! It’s back. Heavy with a capital H the first time around, and even heavier NOW! (rhymes with WOW). The “first time” was in 1970, and Aesthetics, out of print for a long time after that, is now back in the book stores by way of this Da Capo Press reprinting.
BLAME IT ON CAIN
CREEMEDIA
THE AESTHETICS OF ROCK by Richard Meltzer (De Capo Books)
Gregg K. Turner
WOW!!! It’s back. Heavy with a capital H the first time around, and even heavier NOW! (rhymes with WOW). The “first time” was in 1970, and Aesthetics, out of print for a long time after that, is now back in the book stores by way of this Da Capo Press reprinting. Everything’s more-or-less intact (unabridged) from the original, save some typos (now resurrected to non-typo status) and there’s some bonafide bonus coupons: a new introduction by Prof. Greil Marcus (apparently he likes it a lot now, but didn’t circa the “first time around,” say those who remember these things), plus Meltzer’s own analysis, apologies and explanations of what was going on between the margins.
