While critics often emphasize their influence on subsequent developments, they tend to overlook the significance of the band within their own time and era. To address these oversights, The Music and Noise of the Stooges, 1967-71 delves into the trajectory and musical output of the original Stooges.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrawing on the insights of cultural criticism and sound studies, this extensively researched study analyzes the band's evolution. During the late 1960s and early 70s, a period when rock 'n' roll was increasingly being commodified by the record industry, the Stooges faced initial commercial failures. Their noisy music and unconventional onstage performances perplexed their label, Elektra Records. As Begnal argues, the Stooges embodied a tension between market forces and an innovative, avant-garde artistic vision. They sought to liberate audiences from passivity and stimulate an inherent joy in the rock 'n' roll moment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book offers a fresh perspective on the Stooges, appealing to both rock fans and scholars. It particularly resonates with those interested in cultural studies, the long Sixties, musicology, punk studies, and performance studies. By delving into the band's history, music, and cultural impact, The Music and Noise of the Stooges provides a deeper understanding of their significance in the realm of rock music and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 320g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 233 x 156 x 15 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367648466\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Michael S.
