Peter Doggett There's a riot going on
revolutionaries, rock stars and the rise and fall of '60s counter-culture
Gedrukt boek
Between 1965 and 1972, political activists around the globe prepared to mount a revolution. Liberation movements erupted everywhere, demonstrators took to the streets, fought gun battles with the police and attempted to overthrow the world's most powerful governments. Rock and soul music fuelled the revolutionary movement with anthems and iconic imagery, the musicians themselves were being dragged into the fray. The collision of radical fervour and musical passion touched every facet of the revolution, from the Black Panthers to the Gay Liberation Front, and from the Yippies to the IRA.
