Within You, Without You

Phil Jackson has had a lifelong passion for music and in his book Within You, Without You examines the post-war years to the year of the ‘summer of love’, 1967, from the perspective of a listener, a writer and collector, drawing on a variety of sources and his own personal experiences to provide an extensive, analytical and engaging account of a seminal period in the history of popular culture and music.
His book is unique in examining the mystery and magic of the music that emerged in the ’60s within its historical context with particular reference to the impact and influence of The Beatles whose ‘Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band’ was a ‘high water mark’ in the development of pop and rock music and culture.
A multiplicity of musical artists across various genres are discussed in a multi-faceted approach that includes a comprehensive reference guide with recommendations for fans, collectors and newcomers alike.
