Lessons, Tips and Inspiration from Music's Biggest and Best Paperback – May 1
Recently I was looking for a book to learn more about the music
business, contracts, marketing, new ways of distribution, etc. I
encountered this book and was surprised by the lack of reviews. But
nevertheless I decided to get a sample into my kindle and read the first
chapter. After that I bought it and kept reading. The book isdivided
into 14 different lessons which are organized in a logical manner
analogous to the way you go into starting a business, producing and
album and selling it. The book covers a lot of material and it iswritten
in a very friendly way, easy to understand, but still using a language
that professionals are not to going to find silly (if you know what I
mean). If you've been doing music for a while, you will find that many
of the things you already do. But there are some not very obvious things
that are worth the reading of the book. I am sure it will vary
depending on the kind of experience you've had. I will say it is a very
holistic , and not that superficial, coverage of the music business. It
is a fact that music is changing so fast that without doubt many of the
things in this book will soon be obsolete, i.e.software programs,
websites, etc. So I hope that there is an update at some point in the
future. This being said I don't feel the book is dated in any
significant way at this point. If you are interested in music and music
business you willdefinitely find some sound advice and a lot of
inspiration in this book. It opened my mind in many ways.
