Flashpoints In 20th Century American Popular Music With Dr. Kevin Dettmar

Dr. Dettmar will discuss how rock & roll history is full of “flashpoints” - when Jimi Hendrix plays the "Star Spangled Banner" on his Stratocaster at Woodstock, for example, the passive "hippie" ambience of the festival is shredded by the amplified sounds of the far-off Vietnam War. This presentation focuses on a handful of such flashpoints - Elvis on TV, Madonna's first video, "Like a Virgin", and more to illustrate how popular music has always registered larger concerns of the republic.
