Praise for Ready for a Brand New Beat
"Historians and music lovers alike will be grateful for Mr. Kurlansky's thorough appreciation of this iconic song." --The Wall Street Journal "Mr. Kurlansky has come up with a book that will make you hum its theme song." --The New York Times "A fun and informative read about a cool song." --The Cleveland Plain Dealer "Comprehensive...effective...a strong case for why 'Dancing in the Street' would be widely interpreted as a call to action." --The New Yorker Praise for Mark Kurlansky "Every once in a while a writer of particular skill takes a fresh, seemingly improbable idea and turns out a book of pure delight." -- David McCullough "Fascinating stuff . . . [Kurlansky] has a keen eye for odd facts and natural detail." --The Wall Street Journal "Kurlansky continues to prove himself remarkably adept at taking a most unlikely candidate and telling its tale with epic grandeur." --Los Angeles Times Book Review "Brilliant... Journalistic skills might be part of a writer's survival kit, but they infrequently prove to be the foundation for literary success, as they have here. .... Kurlansky has a wonderful ear for the syntax and rhythm of the vernacular... For all the seriousness of Kurlansky's cultural entanglements, it is nevertheless a delight to experience his sophisticated sense of play and, at times, his outright wicked sense of humor." --The New York Times Book Review"About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
