Having explored the thinking of Alan Watts, who coined the term 'Beat Zen', and who influenced the counterculture which emerged out of the Beat movement, it celebrates Jack Kerouac as a writer in pursuit of a 'beatific' vision. On this basis, the book goes on to explain the relevance of Kerouac and his friends Allen Ginsberg and Gary Snyder to songwriters who emerged in the 1960s. Not only are new, detailed readings of the lyrics of the Beatles and of Dylan given, bu. 606 $aBeat generation$xInfluence 606 $aPopular music$y1961-1970 610 $a1960s. 610 $aAlan Watts. 610 $aAllen Ginsberg. 610 $aBeat movement. 610 $aBeatles. 610 $aBob Dylan. 610 $aGary Snyder. 610 $aJack Kerouac. 610 $acounterculture. 610 $asongwriters. 615 0$aBeat generation$xInfluence. 615 0$aPopular music 676 $a782.42164 676 $a810.90054 700 $aCoupe$b Laurence$0167132 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788624803321 996 $aBeat sound, Beat vision$93743166 997 $aUNINA
