Rock Editorial Review
**** "Brand New Beat: The Wild Rise of Rolling Stone Magazine" by Peter Richardson takes readers on an expansive journey through the first tumultuous decade of Rolling Stone Magazine, from its inception in San Francisco to its influential role in American culture. The book skillfully intertwines the magazine's evolution with historical events, such as the assassinations of Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy, the Vietnam War, and the iconic Altamont concert, showcasing how these moments shaped both the publication and the wider cultural landscape. Richardson's narrative is rich with detail and insight, providing a well-rounded portrait of the key figures behind Rolling Stone, particularly its founder, Jann Wenner. He paints a vivid picture of Wenner's navigation through shifting social dynamics and editorial controversies. Not only does the book spotlight the vibrant, counter-cultural roots of the magazine, but it also examines how it transitioned into a powerful entity in New York, balancing anti-establishment values with commercial viability. Readers will likely appreciate Richardson's ability to convey both the excitement and the bittersweet nostalgia of the era, particularly for those who remember the magazine during its golden days. The author deepens the reader's connection to the past by focusing on the influences, desires, and realities that drove Wenner and his team to create content that resonated with a generation in crisis and change. While the book showcases the vibrant essence of Rolling Stone's early years, it also reflects a sense of loss for a time when the music and artists were central to its identity. Critics note that contemporary Rolling Stone has often shifted focus to fleeting trends rather than deeply impactful artists, a departure that has left some nostalgic readers yearning for the publication's earlier priorities. Nonetheless, Richardson's work stands out among other retrospectives and biographies, illuminating why Rolling Stone played a crucial role in defining America’s cultural narrative. **
