Comments and Reviews


scrough ● 9th Sep 2018		Rated 4/10 I'd seriously advise against anybody buying the 3rd edition (1994) of this book. I got it based on things I'd read suggesting it was a comprehensive review of the recorded music industry 'from tinfoil to stereo'. It wasn't. So I got a copy of the 2nd edition (1976) and found that all the later chapters had been removed in the 3rd edition. I've posted images of the contents pages from both editions so you can see how much more the 2nd edition contained. This 3rd edition may be more up to date in light of more recent findings, but it is totally Edison-centric and written entirely for the American market, ignoring Europe almost completely. (this review is from another edition of this book) 5 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
