  In May 1968, France teetered on the brink of revolution as a series of student protests spiraled into general strike. This title examines the social, political, and cultural effects of May '68 on a variety of music in France, from the initial shock of 1968 through the 'long' 1970s and the election of Mitterrand and the socialists in 1981.
