Review
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Good Book. Scholarly.By Larry AndreassenThis book documents the evolution of African-American RB music since WW II. The term RB is used loosely by me. and by the author. In order to fully understand RB specifically. a wider musical net is spread historically. The book is a good. and quite historical read. That was a great plus for me. My only very small negative is I would have enjoyed a few more anecdotes. vignettes. quotations. experiences to further paint the smell and scent of the world he describes.Read the book! Its worth the money.Oh. check out the publish date as it doesnt cover the most recent years of musical history.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
