As a child of the 70's and coming of age in the 80's (born in 1970) I was pleased to be taken down memory lane by the Author as I was both reminded and informed of events that helped shaped my thinking as I grew up a member of the 'Hip Hop' generation.

Any book on music technology can become dated quite quickly, but when one concentrates instead on hearing a very wide variety of artists, producers, technologists and industry executives talk about how they *think*, then you have ...             Artist Management for the Music Business1 review Paul Allen Focal Press, 2007 Artist Management for the Music Business This is a great no-nonsense "how-to" book about the business of managing recording artists.

I urge any young band or solo artist to get this book and follow the author's advice. Reasonable price, meat 'n' potatoes information, and no fluff -- ...             Defining Moments in Music: The Greatest Artists, Albums, Songs, Performances and Events that Rocked the Music ...1 review Cassell Illustrated, 2007 Great, Fun, Comprehensive Look at Western Music This is a very good book.
