Synopsis

Nouvelle collection : Rivages/Rouge « Quand les temps deviennent bizarres, les bizarres deviennent pros » aimait à répéter Hunter S.Thompson, qui savait de quoi il parlait. Du Blues du Delta à la pop des Sixties, du Rock le plus assourdissant au Rap et à l’Électro, Rivages/Rouge – à travers une collection de textes de référence – déroule la bande-son de toutes les joyeuses contre-cultures. La glorieuse histoire et l’avenir radieux des rebelles de tout poil s’écrivent désormais en rouge, volume à fond ! Cofoncateur et rédacteur en chef d''Oz, un des permiers magazines underground, l''Australien Richard Neville se retrouve à Londres, au coeur du cyclone, durant les années soixante. Hippie Hippie Shake retrace avec candeur et humour cette flamboyante épopée. De Lenny Bruce à John Lennon et Yoko Ono, en passant par Germaine Greer, Abbie Hoffman, Jerry Rubin, Robert Crumb, Mick Jagger, Pete Townsend, Pink Floyd, John Peel, Tiny Tim, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton ou Charles Shaar Murray, des rayons bariolés du magasin Biba aux light shows de l''UFO, du concert des Rolling Stones à Hyde Park au festival de l''île de Wight, de Sidney à Katmandou, de Londres à Tanger..., ce livre émouvant raconte les rêves de toute une génération et le combat acharné d''une "free press" décidée à lutter contre toutes les censures de l''époque. Une chronique haute en couleur, aux allures de roman picaresque, des swinging sixties."Une histoire invraisemblable, typique de la fin des années 1960. Terriblement réjouissant." (Charles Shaar Murray, Time Out)"Une évocation admirablement crue, autocritique, lucide. Extrêmement drôle." (Michael Horovitz, The Independent)
