Thompson weaves issues of class, age, gender, and ethnicity into his narrative, beginning with the rise of British beat groups and the emergence of teenagers as consumers, and moving into the competition between performers and the recording industry for control over the music. He interviews musicians, songwriters, music directors, and producers and engineers who worked with the best-known performers.
