No one, however, has examined the importance of spy technology, the Cold War and Carlos's gender to this critically important innovation. Through a postcolonial lens of feminist science and technology studies, Roshanak Kheshti engages in a reading of Carlos's music within this gendered context. By focusing on Switched-On Bach (the highest selling classical music recording of all time), this book explores the significance of gender to the album's--and, as a result, the Moog synthesizer's--phenomenal success.Country/Region of Manufacture: USBook Series: 33 1/3Genre: Music Dance & TheatreRelease Year: 2019 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
