Joynson, V. Dreams, fantasies, and nightmares from far away lands, 1999 (rock and pop, 1963-75)

Shuker, R. Key concepts in popular music, 1998 (pop music; while the use of the word "popular" in relation to the lighter forms of music goes back to the mid-19th century, the abbreviation "pop" was not in use as a generic term until the 1950s, when it was adopted as the umbrella name for a special kind of musical product aimed at a teenage market; often used in an oppositional sense to rock music; seen as a somewhat watered-down, blander version of rock'n'roll, associated with a more rhythmic style and smoother vocal harmony; best of pop survives as "golden oldies"; musically defined by general accessibility, emphasis on memorable hooks, and preoccupation with romantic love as a theme)

New Rolling stone encyc. of rock & roll, c1995 (pop: basically any popular music that places a premium on accessibility; employs various means to boost both instant appeal and memorability (distinctive syncopation, novel instrumental flourishes, danceable rhythms, repeated riffs), but its signal feature is melodic emphasis; generally, any pop record avoids the experimental, arcane, or edgy, aiming instead, in its production, structural familiarity, and clear sentiment to reach the widest possible audience)
