My Seventies
A rather personal history of music
Thomas Meyer
Among new music decades, the sixties do not have the very best of reputations. The time for immediate turning points is over, the drive of the avant-garde flagged – or so goes the widespread opinion. The seventies were however also an exciting decade of dissolution, turnarounds, reorientation – especially when one is there oneself and one has experienced one’s musical socialisation in this era, as our author Thomas Meyer, who gives an account of these historical events from his own personal experience.
