And the Roots of Rhythm Remain : A Journey Through Global Music
World Music - Book - by Joe Boyd
(2024)
Legendary producer and record label boss Joe Boyd has spent a lifetime
travelling the globe and immersing himself in music. He has witnessed
first-hand the growing popularity of music from Africa, India, Latin
America, the Caribbean and Eastern Europe since the 1960s and was one of
the protagonists of the 'world music' movement of the 1980s. In this
sweeping history, Boyd sets out to explore the fascinating backstories
to these sounds and documents a decade of encounters with the most
extraordinary musicians and producers who have altered the course of
music for us all.
And the Roots of Rhythm Remain shows how
personalities, events and politics in places such as Havana, Lagos,
Budapest, Kingston and Rio are as colourful and momentous as anything
that took place in New Orleans, Harlem, Laurel Canyon or Liverpool. And,
moreover, how jazz, rhythm and blues and rock 'n' roll would never have
happened if it weren't for the notes and rhythms emanating from over
the horizon. 'A gift to the world.
