The '50s and New Criticism

Track Talk is back with a very special premier of the new Decades series! This week, Baleigh and Nathan discuss New Criticism as it pertains to the music of the 1950s - Elvis, Muddy Waters, the Andrews Sisters, and much more. They get into how we can listen to Elvis without thinking about Elvis's image, close readings of some of the most iconic music of the '50s, and even some of their own personal issues with New Criticism! Who's YOUR favorite artist from the '50s? What are your experiences with and memories of '50s music? Let us know!
