Explores the lyrics of popular and influential songsBy Midwest Book ReviewFrom the African-American songs of the 19th century through the folk music and rock of the 20th century; a significant segment of popular secular music has been endowed with profound spiritual messages focused on themes social justice and the emotional ramifications of love; sacrifice; and even the occasional biblical text. In "Gods And Guitars: Seeking The Sacred In Post-1960s Popular Music"; academician Michael J. Gilmour (Providence college; Manitoba; Canada) explores the lyrics of popular and influential songs composed and performed by such illustrious music icons as Cat Stevens; Bob Dylan; Eric Clapton; the Rolling Stones; Madonna; Pearl Jam; Joni Mitchell; U2; and others. Enhanced with extensive notes; an invaluable bibliography for further and more detailed study; and a comprehensive Index; "Gods And Guitars" is an especially recommended addition to personal; academic; and community library 20th Century Popular Music reference collections and supplemental reading lists.
