Abstract
It is a “rite of passage” for the aspiring pop music scholar, myself included, to refute Theodor Adorno’s well-known condemnation of popular music (Gendron, 1986; Toynbee, 2000: 3-8; Middleton, 1990: 34-63). But why has the Adorno refutation remained so central to our critical endeavour? Isn’t it time we moved on?
