This review - of the volume by Simone Varriale, Globalization, Music and Cultures Of Distinction, The Rise of Pop Music Criticism in Italy, London, Palgrave Macmillan, 2016- focuses on the rise of Italian pop music criticism as a new cultural institution which, according to the author, contributed to the “artistic legitimation” of popular music and culture between 1969 and 1977, particularly of American and British pop-rock in Italy. It is a study which, using an interdisciplinary approach, also aims to promote an historical research about the rise of the Italian music press.
