2. (PDF) Shake It Up Baby!: Notes from a British pop music reporter 1961-1972 Full

4. Description From Spector to Hendrix, from Little Richard to Marc Bolan, from the Beatles to Fleetwood Mac, Norman Jopling interviewed and wrote about hundreds of musical movers &ampshakers from 1961-1972 in music publications including Record Mirror, NME, Cream, Let It Rock and Billboard. He pioneered in print the UK rhythm &ampblues boom, was the first music writer to rave about the Rolling Stones, and his regular columns &quotFallen Idols&quotand &quotThe Great Unknowns&quotwere pasted into scrapbooks throughout Britain. In Shake It Up Baby! he tells what it was like to be a teenage pop reporter - profiling not just the big-names but the forgotten as well as the famous. He also reveals the arcane details: the week-in week-out lists of who was interviewed and featured, the stories behind the stories, the passions of the readers, and the day-by-day nuts and bolts of producing a weekly pop newspaper.
