Title: The Rough Guide Country Music (Rough Guides) by Kurt Wolff, Orla Duane ISBN: 1-85828-534-8 Publisher: Rough Guides Pub. Date: August, 2000 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $24.95 |
Average Customer Rating: 5 (5 reviews)
Rating: 5
Summary: Broad and well-researched book with plenty of info.
Comment: I bought this book at the advice of a friend and was not disappointed. Wolff is a thoughtful and articulate writer, and this book has plenty of recording artists that I was not aware of. It is arranged in chronological historical chapters, which show the progression of country music to the present. Interesting write-ups on all the major artists, and plenty of information on musicians you probably won't have heard of.
Rating: 5
Summary: You need this if you listen to country.
Comment: Love this book, just stumbled on it a few weeks ago, and can't put it down. I've been listening to country and loving it since I was a little girl, and this thing keeps turning me on to more music I want to go out and buy. Cool bio's on the artists and a great section on the seventies outlaw artists.
Rating: 5
Summary: Fascinating and informative.
Comment: An essential addition to your music library - whether you're a country novice or expert. The author has meticulously researched and written about country music in a well-organized chronological format that allows the reader to fully grasp the roots and progression of this music genre. The book includes biographies of country artists (those who are well-known, as well as some forgotten gems), discographies, reviews, and essays which fit the music into a broader social and historical perspective.
Great purchase - one of the best music reference books I own. Also check out the companion guide - 100 Essential CD's. Some interesting picks.
