 | B15430 - The Beatles: Image and the Media Book. By Michael Frontani
This engrossing and methodically researched volume charts the transformation of the Beatles from teen idols to leaders of the youth movement and cultural icons. Drawing upon mainstream print media, broadcasts, albums, films, and videos, "The Beatles" studies the band's career in the United States, and explores how their media image evolved in relation to cultural and historical events. When the Beatles first arrived in America in 1964, it was as sharply dressed teen heartthrobs. By the end of the decade, they had thoroughly absorbed the fashion and consciousness of the American counterculture and were able to use their interviews, media events, and music to comment on the issues of the time - from the Vietnam War to the civil rights movement. "The Beatles" traces the steps that led to this change, and explores how, throughout the evolution of their media profile, their mantra of optimism never wavered. Paperback. 286 pages. Measures 21.5cm x 13.5cm (8.2 inches x 5.4 inches).
