Description

The US Army could have caused the collapse of rock and roll, and the mayor of New York very nearly transformed Woodstock into a musical riot. Imagine that.

The legacy of music is a precarious one. Might Jimi Hendrix and Jeff Beck still be alive today if it wasn't for rock's favourite designer Would Ethiopia have been better off without Live Aid

In Imagine that. Music young historian Michael Sells looks back at some the key turning-points and best-kept secrets in the history of music and reveals how they might have changed the world.
