Book Musik 23-"Five Years Ahead of My Time: Garage Rock from the 1950s to the Present" by Seth Bovey Book Musik Podcast

Tosh and Kimley discuss “Five Years Ahead of My Time: Garage Rock from the 1950s to the Present” by Seth Bovey. Guitar, bass, drums, a catchy three chord song and a groovy guitar lick — that’s all you need to rock! The pure, raw sounds of garage rock have been around since the late 50s when people realized they could play music without a huge investment of time or money. Most bands never became more than a regional attraction but a few did rise to the top and many continue to have devoted cult followings. Bovey takes us through the beginnings with the instrumental garage rock bands of the late 50s and early 60s and explores the development of this highly influential genre of music right up to the present including an impressive international scene.
