Yet as Born emphasises, music is never singular but always a multiplicity, and it exists only in and through its multiple and changing mediations. There is, thus, no musical object or text that stands outside mediation (Born 2010, pp. 87\u201388). Contributing to this process of mediation are heritage practices such as the construction of music exhibitions and museums, monuments and tours, collections and archives, books and films.3 Material places and artefacts are, thus, an important aspect of popular music heritage and our concern is with heritage practices that relate these material sites to musicians and musical sounds and performances. In the UK heritage plaques have increasingly been used in this way, marking places where musicians lived or died, places in which music was made or, as with the Ziggy Stardust plaque, people and places imagined through music. These plaques represent different and often competing interests and, thus, provide a fascinating focus for research into the politics of music, memory and place whilst also prompting debates about musical value that have been so central to popular music studies.&#8221; <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.researchgate.net\/publication\/263684773_Unauthorising_popular_music_heritage_Outline_of_a_critical_framework\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.researchgate.net\/publication\/263684773_Unauthorising_popular_music_heritage_Outline_of_a_critical_framework\">Article Here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">*****<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>***** Critical Heritage Studies &#8220;Critical heritage studies is about the present, not the past \u201c[H]eritage [is] a practice that is constructed in the present\u201d (Emerick 2014).
