Title: Another little piece of my heart
Description: "In 1966, at the ripe age of 22, Richard Goldstein approached The Village Voice with a novel idea. "I want to be a rock critic," he said. "What's that?" the editor replied. It was a logical question, since rock criticism didn't yet exist.

From his unique position in journalism, he saw the full arc of events that shaped culture and politics in the 1960s.---
