Big Library Read begins today! Visit our OverDrive digital collection to borrow the featured title ‘Music Is History” by Questlove with no waitlists or holds.
You might know Questlove from his work in The Roots, or as the musical director for The Tonight Show, or his Academy Award-winning film Summer of Soul. Music Is History combines Questlove’s deep musical expertise with his curiosity about history, examining America over the past fifty years:
“Focusing on the years 1971 to the present, Questlove finds the hidden connections in the American tapestry, whether investigating how the blaxploitation era reshaped Black identity or considering the way disco took an assembly-line approach to Black genius. And these critical inquiries are complemented by his own memories as a music fan, and the way his appetite for pop culture taught him about America. A history of the last half-century and an intimate conversation with one of music’s most influential and original voices, Music Is History is a singular look at contemporary America.”
