"Murphy's book is an important contribution to academic understanding of singer-songwriter repertoires and flexible meter. Her attention to the work of Buffy Sainte-Marie offers a long-overdue analytical examination of one of the most important Indigenous popular music artists of the last hundred years. Murphy's work highlights Sainte-Marie's advocacy for Indigenous rights alongside analytical details, modeling one of many paths forward in the ongoing process of decolonizing music theory and analysis." -- Dr. Robin Attas, Educational Developer, Equity Diversity Inclusion, Centre for the Advancement of Teaching and Learning, University of Manitoba "Times a Changin' provides a much-needed and insightful study of musical techniques used by the singer-songwriters of the 1960s and 1970s--artists whose lyrics and voices have resonated deeply in the history of popular music but whose creative approaches to musical time have been largely unaccounted for until now. Readers interested in these artists, and in the theory and analysis of meter in popular music, will come away from this illuminating book with new appreciation for how singer-songwriters have been able to connect so profoundly with their audiences." -- Joti Rockwell, Associate Professor of Music, Pomona College, "Murphy's book is an important contribution to academic understanding of singer-songwriter repertoires and flexible meter.

Synopsis
How did emerging singer-songwriters in the 1960s and 1970s develop traditions for musical self-expression? This book takes a new listen to the music of beloved songwriters Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Paul Simon, and Cat Stevens to show how they used malleable metric settings as an important part of their self-expressive toolkit in performance., In 1960s and 1970s singer-songwriter music, some artists used malleable metric settings alongside other features of self-expression in performance. This resulted in songs with extremes of self-expressive timing flexibility that cannot be accounted for using a single conception of meter. This book proposes a theory of flexible meter that recasts metric structure as encompassing the variety of metric scenarios presented by the self-expressive performance practice of singer-songwriters, from metric regularity to metric ambiguity, and vacillations between these two possibilities. Author Nancy Murphy explores performances by Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Paul Simon, and Cat Stevens to investigate the individual metric style of each artist and how their flexible metric techniques contribute to the self-expressive rhetoric of the singer-songwriter performance tradition.
