What is rock and roll and where does it come from? In this study of music, literature and culture, Perry Meisel shows how rock and roll joins both Romanticism and the blues tradition by testing the boundaries they share: boundaries between freedom and irony, between country and city, between the iconic figures of cowboy (for example,John Wayne) and dandy (Oscar Wilde). In a series of juxtapositions, Meisel looks at rhythm and blues, Emerson and the cowboy, urban blues, the dandy and the psychedelia of the 1960s, Willa Cather, Miles Davis and Virginia Woolf. In the process, Meisel intends to show how "popular" and "high" culture are hardly fixed categories and in fact share deep roots each vainly affects to disdain.
