Rövid leírás:
Freedom Girls: Voicing Femininity in 1960s British Pop tells the stories a group of singers--Sandie Shaw, Cilla Black, Millie Small, Dusty Springfield, Lulu, Marianne Faithfull, and P.P. Arnold--whose singing voices transformed understandings of modern femininity in the 1960s. Often left out of histories of rock and pop music, the stories of these singers show us how the way we speak and sing are tied to the way we understand race and gender. This book analyzes musical recordings, television programs, and a wide range of media produced for young audiences in the 1960s to show how girl singers played a crucial role in the history of pop music.

Freedom Girls: Voicing Femininity in 1960s British Pop shows how the vocal performances of girl singers in 1960s Britain defined-and sometimes defied-ideas about what it meant to be a young woman in the 1960s British pop music scene. The singing and expressive voices of Sandie Shaw, Cilla Black, Millie Small, Dusty Springfield, Lulu, Marianne Faithfull, and P.P. Arnold, reveal how vocal sound shapes access to social mobility, and consequently, access to power and musical authority. The book examines how Sandie Shaw and Cilla Black's ordinary girl personas were tied to whiteness and, in Black's case, her Liverpool origins. It shows how Dusty Springfield and Jamaican singer Millie Small engaged with the transatlantic sounds of soul and and ska, respectively, transforming ideas about musical genre, race, and gender. It reveals how attitudes about sexuality and youth in rock culture shaped the vocal performances of Lulu and Marianne Faithfull, and how P.P. Arnold has re-narrated rock history to center Black women's vocality.
Freedom Girls draws on a broad array of archival sources, including music magazines, fashion and entertainment magazines produced for young women, biographies and interviews, audience research reports, and others to inform analysis of musical recordings (including such songs as "As Tears Go By," "Son of a Preacher Man," and others) and performances on television programs such as Ready Steady Go!, Shindig, and other 1960s music shows. These performances reveal the historical and contemporary connections between voice, social mobility, and musical authority, and demonstrate how singers used voice to navigate the boundaries of race, class, and gender.
A thoughtful, nuanced, and beautifully written study of British girlhood and music through the upheavals of the 1960s. This book offers a terrific range of case studies including Lulu, Marianne Faithfull, Millie Small, and PP Arnold, to consider girl singers and their fans as bearers of social change in Swinging London. With attention to the materials and metaphorical functions of the voice, Apolloni restores authority to the girls and young women who were raising their voices and remaking the world.
