  <default_description>Described as the perfect fusion of poetry and garage band rock and roll (the original concept was &quot;rock and Rimbaud&quot;), &lt;i&gt;Horses belongs&lt;/i&gt; as much to the world of literary and cultural criticism as it does to the realm of musicology. While &lt;i&gt;Horses&lt;/i&gt; pays homage to the record's origins in the nascent New York punk scene, the book's core lies in a detailed analysis of Patti Smith's lyrics and includes discussions of lyrical preoccupations: love, sex, gender, death, dreams, god, metamorphosis, intoxication, apocalypse and transcendence. Philip shaw demonstrates how Horses transformed the possibilities of both poetry and rock music; and how it achieved nothing less than a complete and systematic derangement of the senses.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[I love these 33 1/3 books.

    <body><![CDATA[These 33&amp; 1/3 books are as addictive as--well . . . .  But they are uneven affairs.  Some of them are extremely most tedious subjective  appreciations masquerading as &quot;creative&quot; writing.  Others are solid and well researched.  Shaw's book on the great Patti Smith album falls mostly into th...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/26476674">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Really good close reading of Patti Smith's excellent album.  Though I'm not usually a fan of psychoanalytic theory, a lot of Shaw's readings hit the nail on the head.  Sometimes a bit of a stretch or a little over-intellectualized, but for the most part a good analysis.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I enjoyed reading this, particularly a lot of the development issues dealing with the construction of Smith's works. I'm glad it didn't go too far into her various romantic affairs, focusing on her work instead. As usual, song by song analysis gets a bit old for me. ]]></body>
