*520##$aHow has chart music in Britain and America mirrored political and social movements over the past 70 years?  Mixing Pop and Politics is a history of modern Britain and America told through music. In the book, Manning explores how 1950s rock’n’roll rejected social conformity, how the 60s’ counterculture reshaped both music and society and how the 70s saw glam, funk, and punk reject a reemerging conservatism.  With the 80s making a turning point in pop and politics, the rebellious energies of rave, hip-hop and grunge were soon coopted or crushed, while, in the 90s, Britpop and gangsta rap, like politics, relayed a reductive ‘realism’. With the 2000s defined by war and economic collapse, music became increasingly insular and individualist – before the revival of rap and grime in the 2010s paralleled the resurgence of radical politics.  While 2020s music reflects a less hopeful era, Mixing Pop and Politics argues that, despite constant co-optation, music will always reinvent itself from the ground up – providing a powerful analogy for social change.
*5201#$aReview "An accessible, characterful popular history rather than a dry definitional textbook, Manning’s study is surely the first really cogent attempt to present a birdseye-view Marxist chronology of pop music from the time of Lonnie Donegan to our present tense of Olivia Rodrigo and Oliver Anthony.” - Alex Niven, Tribune.  “Mixing Pop and Politics is a dense but illuminating survey of popular songs of the last 70 years … [Manning’s] enthusiasm is palpable and infectious … [and] his approach is for the large part wholly convincing and very engaging.” - Lucy Thraves, The Wire.  “An unnerving take on music as far back as the 50s, with a lot of received wisdom that we all take for granted redefined through a fresh prism. 9 times out of 10 he nails it, tracking commercial exploitation versus social and artistic change over the decades.” - Joel McIver, Record Collector.  "Mixing Pop and Politics is an ambitious and breathless 500-page chronology of pop songs from 1953-2023 in relation to the socio-political zeitgeist of its era. It references cultural touchstones along the way, providing some fascinating arguments and insights.” - Alex Burrows, Classic Rock.  "Whatever your tastes, your historical, theoretical and musical horizons will be challenged, and your mind will be thinking of lyrics, songs, artists and movements that you would have included. This is a neat trick that will have me returning again and again to this book." -Charles Marriott, Counterfire.  "This is a landmark work that brings a complex analytical framework to bear on the entire past 70 years of Anglophone pop music history .... will be a key reference point for politically and sociologically informed cultural criticism for years to come." -Jeremy Gilbert, author of Twenty-First Century Socialism.  “This is an ambitious and fascinating book, written with, alongside humour and insight, an obvious love of music – something missing surprisingly often from cultural analysis of this kind.” - Rhian E. Jones, The Welsh Agenda.  "Manning’s vast, richly detailed provocation, written from the perseverance of history’s losers, seeks to keep the struggle alive by resuscitating ‘the past’s potentialities – its hope – and thus the future’s’." -Mark Paytress, Mojo.
