Ellen Willis pioneered rock music criticism

September 28, 2011

Although she stopped writing about music in the early 1980s, Ellen Willis was an influential rock critic. The first popular music critic ever hired by The New Yorker, Willis provided a feminist perspective on the male-dominated world of rock. Out of the Vinyl Deeps: Ellen Willis on Rock Music (University of Minnesota Press) collects Willis’ columns and articles from the late ’60s and early ’70s, a time when many of us thought rock mattered. The volume is edited and introduced by Willis’ daughter, Nona Willis Aronowitz. Willis, who died in 2006, had a million opinions on the live and recorded works of the rock gods, including Minnesota native Bob Dylan. It’s a fun and edifying read. — M.S.
