I was very disappointed in this. I found it's treatment of the subject rather superficial. Sorry. Would you like it back?
A refreshing and original approach to studying the music industries
Very good to be used as an introduction of popular music and media
Well-written and engaging book. Insightful and covering a wide range of subjects that makes it essential for music industry/popular music students. A must-read, in my opinion.
Tara Brabazon has written an insightful and accessible book that covers the majority of core concepts and issues reflective of current thinking around how one should study popular music. Highly recommended for any student studying popular music.
Great book but covers only a little of what we look at.
Useful for our students studying the Music Industries degree as it gives a contemporary context and series of important subject areas for debate and discussion.
Useful, if a little basic at times
Interesting and detailed book which informs the reader about the historical factors of the music industry. It is easy to read and informative.
good book to aid those on course for reading material for extra reading and information
Covers a wide range of relevant topics and gives in depth insights to popular music.
This is an enjoyable read that covers a wide range of topics and genres around popular music. I've used this for Level 4 which seemed most appropriate, though Level 6 students did find the debates section useful and engaging in seminar discussions.
Provides students with useful tasters
An incredibly wide-ranging critical account of popular music. The book is an essential resource for all staff and students in the fieldProf John StoreyCentre for Research in Media and Cultural Studies, University of Sunderland
