OLLI AT UVM PRESENTS

This online program examines music, media, and culture at a time of profound social upheaval. The intersection where they met in post-War America was pivotal, the effect they had on each other was unprecedented and altered them in ways that still impact society today. At its core is a classic struggle between art and commerce, innovation and orthodoxy, freedom and control. And it's only rock 'n' roll. We encounter soon-to-be famous musicians, tour (twice) with the Rolling Stones, and witness the birth of the Classic Era of Rock Music.
