Similar to Part One, but continues with the history of rock into more recent times (1990s). Very short course compared to the other one. Pros and cons from Part One apply to Part Two.

Excelent. Actually now is more fun to read about musicans (recently Iggy Pop & Black Sabbath) because context is better understood. (A bit weird that Tom Waits is not even mentioned)

John Covach's lectures are clear and well-thought out, and he does a good job of fielding the "fan mentality" that so often plagues other rock history and music history courses.

John Covach is a fantastic teacher that has a obvious love of music in general. I would definitely take other courses from Mr. Covach if they were offered. Great class!!

Amazing course, very academic and objective and yet extremely enjoyable. I'm very grateful for coursera an Prof Covach who made it available and easily accessible.

Love these two courses.I new alot of the topics but was suprised with a few of the topics.very well organized and understandible.Thanks for a fun course.
由 JD 提供Sep 7, 2017
Fun topic although having only a person talking can make the course tedious at times. Would be good if there was a Spotify playlist for the course.
由 RL 提供Oct 6, 2015
Very interesting information. I lived through a lot of this material so it was doubly interesting. Very thorough, unbiased and informative.
由 WC 提供Mar 31, 2017
More than a course on history of rock, is a course on history of culture and american society in the 20th century. Recommended.
由 GH 提供Jun 23, 2016
A great course especially if you follow along with the book and use the extra videos and music links from the book's website.
由 SA 提供Mar 9, 2017
Loved and truly enjoyed this course! I kind of feel sad it ended. Huge thanks to John Covach for his great enthusiasm.

Good course but too much focus on US and UK and too much on racial and gender issues - focus on the music
