Peter Doggett's weighty tome is a treasure trove of countercultural anecdotes and reportage. * * New Statesman * * Tells the story in an exemplary way. * * Financial Times * * Doggett has mastered hundreds of interviews, contemporary accounts and documents to put together this meticulously researched, scholarly and often gripping portrait of an era. * * Sunday Telegraph * * Doggett's encyclopaedic account of Sixties counter-culture is a fascinating history of pop's relationship with politics, examining the establishment's skill at assimilating rock 'n' roll rebellion into the mainstream. * * Independent * * Doggett has a brisk, readable style, with an astute eye for the idiosyncrasies of the period. * * Telegraph * * ...a fresh and near-definitive slant on a subject you might have thought had been picked clean by journalists and historians. * * Time Out * * Peter Doggett's There's a Riot Going On is a lot of fun, but it also needs to be read by anyone who wants to understand the significance of the 60s or the role of pop culture.
