The Pop Musical. Sweat, Tears, and Tarnished Utopias, Paperback/Professor Alberto Mira

Alberto Mira offers a new account of how pop music revolutionized the Hollywood musical. He shows that while the Hollywood system ceased producing large-scale traditional musicals, different pop strains-disco, rock 'n' roll, doo-wop, glam, and hip-hop-renewed the genre, giving it a new life.
