Book
Condition: very good. La Salle, IL.: Open Court,1994. Reprint. Paperback. xxiv,280 pp. ills. Index. Bibliography. - Classic rock of the 1960s and early 1970s broke away from the harmless bubblegum and surfing music of the 1950s to become a vehicle for profound commentary upon the human condition. Theories and motifs from major figures in the history of philosophy, theology and literature were refracted and transfigured in this intelligent new popular art form. Classic rock, argues Professor Harris, should be taken as seriously as the loftiest creations of art and literature. In this book, he lays the groundwork for such an informed appreciation by exhibiting philosophical themes in the greatest rock 'n' roll songs. The writer's examples encompass all the major rock artists of the classic period, including Paul Simon, Elton John, Jefferson Airplane, Janis Joplin, Cat Stevens, Pink Floyd, The Who, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Chicago, The Moody Blues and Joni Mitchell. His analyses draw upon the ideas of Descartes, Aristotle, Rousseau, Kant, Nietzsche, Marx, Freud, Laing and Camus, to situate the preoccupations of classic rock lyricists in the Western intellectual tradition. Among Professor Harris's detailed exegeses is Joni Mitchell's Woodstock , which he sees as a defence of Rouseau's view of human nature against that of Hobbes. He argues that Mitchell's We've got to get ourselves back to the garden refers to Rousseau's call for a return to simple existence where natural human goodness can flourish. In another exegesis, Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon , one of the most celebrated of all rock albums, he argues that many listeners fail to understand that it is a systematic exploration of R.D. Laing's radical antipsychiatry concepts, the dark side of the Moon symbolising the authentic self, in contradistinction to the false self, which reflects light from the external source of social convention.

Book First Edition
Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. 280pp, index, bibliography. Remainder mark on bottom edge. The chair of Philosophy at William & Mary College explores the idea that classic rock should be taken as seriously as the loftiest creations of art and literature. He lays the groundwork for an informed appreciation by exhibiting philosophical themes in the finest rock songs. Examples encompass all the major rock artists of the classic period (1962-1974) including Paul Simon, Elton John, Pink Floyd, The Grateful Dead, Bob Dylan, The Moody Blues, The Rolling Stones, Kinks, Cat Stevens, Beatles, Crosby Stills Nash & Young, The Who, Jefferson Airplane and Joni Mitchell among others. His analyses draw upon the ideas of Aristotle, Bonhoeffer, Camus, Descartes, Freud, Kant, Laing, Marx, Nietzsche, Nozick, Rousseau, Sartre, Thoreau, and Tillich as well as the Bible and other scriptures, to situate the pre-occupations of the classic rock lyricists in the Western intellectual tradition. Size: 8vo.
