Daphne Brooks has written a gloriously polyphonic book. Moving through the tumult of the twentieth century and the millennium, she scores, archives, and curates the history of Black women musicians and their radical modernities, all created in a culture that presumed they had no voices or minds. What did they do to be so Black, brilliant, and blue? Listen. And read on., Through storytelling, analysis, and archival research, Liner Notes for the Revolution spans generations of Black women as musical pioneers, including Ma Rainey, Billie Holiday, and Tina Turner, and calls attention to their resounding influence., Enlightening...a fresh perspective on more than a century's worth of Black female musicians...Brooks combines an impressive archive of musical works and the artists' own words to convincingly reveal how they each impacted popular culture. Music aficionados should take note., A sweeping survey of Black women's contributions to music history and a rigorous mapping of their lives as intellectuals. From Bessie Smith to Beyoncé...A positively revolutionary 'critical re-attunement.', It went so many unexpected places and it fed me. I was especially drawn to the under-told stories of trailblazing women who were the collectors, archivists, and storytellers. She's made what has been in the shadows legible. It's full of stories of creative resistance and persistence. Perfect for this moment., Brooks takes on a wide-ranging study of Black female artists, from elders like Bessie Smith and Ethel Waters to Beyoncé and Janelle Monáe. But she reaches far beyond music, exploring writers like Zora Neale Hurston and Pauline Hopkins... Liner Notes is a secret history in the spirit of Greil Marcus, connecting the sonic worlds of Black female mythmakers and truth-tellers., A passionate book, written with a vigorous confidence...Brooks's command of history and her reading are broad and deep...Instinct says there is a large audience that is not only sympathetic to what she has to say but would be charged up by Brooks's ideas, that would hear in the music what Brooks hears., A spirited study of how Black women musicians and writers have informed each other despite gatekeepers' neglect and dismissals...A sui generis and essential work on Black music culture destined to launch future investigations., A groundbreaking study that is necessary reading for scholars of Black studies, women's studies, sound studies, and performance studies. The methods and arguments put forth by Brooks will undoubtedly inspire the growth of Black feminist archival scholarship dedicated to unearthing the stories of many more sidelined, yet-to-be-recognized culture makers., Daphne Brooks has written a gloriously polyphonic book. Moving through the tumult of the twentieth century and the millennium, she scores, archives, and curates the history of Black woman musicians and their radical modernities, all created in a culture that presumed they had no voices or minds. What did they do to be so Black, brilliant, and blue? Listen. And read on.

Synopsis
Winner of the Josephine Miles-PEN Oakland Book Award Winner of the MAAH Stone Book Award A Rolling Stone Best Music Book of the Year A Pitchfork Best Music Book of the Year "Brooks traces all kinds of lines, finding unexpected points of connection inviting voices to talk to one another, seeing what different perspectives can offer, opening up new ways of looking and listening by tracing lineages and calling for more space." - New York Times An award-winning Black feminist music critic takes us on an epic journey through radical sound from Bessie Smith to Beyoncé. Daphne A. Brooks explores more than a century of music archives to examine the critics, collectors, and listeners who have determined perceptions of Black women on stage and in the recording studio. How is it possible, she asks, that iconic artists such as Aretha Franklin and Beyoncé exist simultaneously at the center and on the fringe of the culture industry? Liner Notes for the Revolution offers a startling new perspective on these acclaimed figures-a perspective informed by the overlooked contributions of other Black women concerned with the work of their musical peers. Zora Neale Hurston appears as a sound archivist and a performer, Lorraine Hansberry as a queer Black feminist critic of modern culture, and Pauline Hopkins as America's first Black female cultural commentator. Brooks tackles the complicated racial politics of blues music recording, song collecting, and rock and roll criticism. She makes lyrical forays into the blues pioneers Bessie Smith and Mamie Smith, as well as fans who became critics, like the record-label entrepreneur and writer Rosetta Reitz. In the twenty-first century, pop superstar Janelle Monae's liner notes are recognized for their innovations, while celebrated singers Cécile McLorin Salvant, Rhiannon Giddens, and Valerie June take their place as cultural historians. With an innovative perspective on the story of Black women in popular music-and who should rightly tell it- Liner Notes for the Revolution pioneers a long overdue recognition and celebration of Black women musicians as radical intellectuals., Winner of the Ralph J. Gleason Music Book Award, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Winner of the American Book Award, Before Columbus Foundation Winner of the PEN Oakland-Josephine Miles Award Winner of the MAAH Stone Book Award A Pitchfork Best Music Book of the Year A Rolling Stone Best Music Book of the Year "Brooks traces all kinds of lines, finding unexpected points of connection...inviting voices to talk to one another, seeing what different perspectives can offer, opening up new ways of looking and listening by tracing lineages and calling for more space." -- New York Times An award-winning Black feminist music critic takes us on an epic journey through radical sound from Bessie Smith to Beyoncé.

Informed by the overlooked contributions of women who wrote about the blues, rock, and pop, Daphne A. Brooks argues that acclaimed entertainers have also been radical intellectuals, challenging the culture industry to catch up.

- y***k (44)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoBeautiful book. Arrived in pristine condition. Packed with care, and it stood up to the delivery people tossing it around. Shipped quickly, and the entire experience was pleasant from start to, finish. Great seller! Would happily do business again!
- o***o (25)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoThe item took about a week after its shipping label was created, to be actually taken to the shipper. It shipped the same day that I messaged the seller to start the timer to get a refund. The quality of the book is excellent and exactly as described, it just bugs me about the deliberately slow shipping especially when I paid for shipping. Overall, I’m neutral on the purchase since it was the item I wanted and the quality was good, but the shipping time and price wasn’t good.
