Annotation

Richie Unterberger's companion volume to his excellent survey of the roots of folk rock, TURN! TURN! TURN!, follows the music's later development as it influences 1960s psychedelic rock and journeys across the Atlantic to Swinging London. Unterberger's wide-ranging research, enthusiasm, and depth of musical knowledge combine here to produce a sweeping and informative narrative of a genre that has informed the repertoire of bands from Jefferson Airplane to Led Zeppelin. Unterberger is especially instructive on the rise of British folk rock, represented here by the successful, jazz-tinged '60s outfit Pentangle and their more rock-flavored contemporaries Fairport Convention (who were themselves influenced by Jefferson Airplane), among others, tracing both bands' experimental origins in the hothouse atmosphere of Britain's popular folk clubs. EIGHT MILES HIGH is an authoritative and fascinating history of the evolution and far-reaching influence of this multi-faceted musical offshoot.
