Book desription: U. of Georgia Press, 2004. Paperback. New Book. Paperback. The drum-playing Hamelman (English, Coastal Carolina U.), inspired by Coleridge, Emerson, and the liner notes of countless rock 'n' roll LPs, contemplates America's throwaway culture and the "fundamental yet complex interrelationship between trash, both literal and figurative trash, and rock music and culture. In other words, that the cliché about America's trashiness is supportable, perhaps indisputable, doesn't mean we should accept it at face value if we wish, as I do, to increase our understanding and enjoyment of rock 'n' roll music, which appears to be this trash culture's main form of musical expression." With an exquisitely detailed index. (©2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR)
