Music Is History

By Questlove

About this book

Questlove selects songs and recordings as entry points into American history. He listens for what they reveal about race, politics, and popular culture, while explaining how his own listening has changed. The result invites readers to put on a record and consider what an audience could hear in it at a particular moment.
