Review: "We All Want to Change the World is the first book devoted exclusively to the sometimes antagonistic, sometimes mutually beneficial relationship between rock and politics over the past five decades. Surveying recordings, articles, books, and firsthand accounts, former congressional staff member Tom Waldman has written a funny and fascinating account of the impact of politics on rock and of rock on politics.We All Want to Change the World gives equal time to Elvis, the Beatles, Bob Dylan, the Rolling Stones, the Sex Pistols, James Brown, Bill Clinton, Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, and George W. Bush."--Jacket.
