Paperback. "The Beat is the first book to explore the musical, social, and cultural phenomenon of go-go. Rooted in funk and hip-hop, go-go - the only musical form indigenous to Washington, D.C. - features a highly syncopated, nonstop beat and vocals that are spoken as well as sung. This book chronicles the development and ongoing popularity of go-go, focusing on many of its key figures and institutions, including established acts like Chuck Brown (the Godfather of Go-Go), Experience Unlimited, Rare Essence, and Trouble Funk; well-known DJs, managers, and promoters; and filmmakers who have incorporated go-go into their work."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Zustand: Near fine. First edition. First printing of this groundbreaking history of DC's go-go scene, fondly inscribed by both authors as well as Go-Go legend Chuck Brown. Lornell and Stephenson discuss go-go as a regional, cultural, and musical phenomenon, as well as examine the groundwork laid in the Black dance clubs and DC public school music programs of the early 1960s before the impact of funk and the full emergence of go-go as a recognizable and separate sub-genre. Music historians generally resist crediting the form with a single founder, but all agree that if it had one, it was Chuck Brown: "The time was ripe for experimentation and change, and Chuck Brown was there at the beginning of go-go." 9'' x 6''. Original glossy wrappers. Black and white photographic illustrations. 260 pages. Inscribed on inside front cover by Stephenson ("Keep go-go alive") and Chuck Brown ("Peace & Love), inscribed on title page by Lornell ("Thanks for your help"). Minor edgewear to wrappers.
