Description

Explore the deep connections between music history and fan culture with The Beatles and Fandom: Sex, Death and Progressive Nostalgia. Published by Bloomsbury, this book offers a unique look at the impulses that drive Beatles fans. It examines how the band's 1970 breakup created a sense of metaphorical death that fuels fan conventions today. This work moves beyond simple biography to study the subcultures surrounding the band.
