Ebook: Beginning to see the light: sex, hope, and rock-and-roll

"From the New Yorker's inimitable first pop music critic comes this pioneering collection of essays by a conscientious writer whose political realm is both radical and rational, and whose prime preoccupations are with rock-and-roll, sexuality, and freedom. Here Ellen Willis assuredly captures the thrill of music, the disdain of authoritarian culture, and the rebellious spirit of the '60s and '70s." --P.[4] cover.;Out of the Vinyl Deeps.
