The approach to cover art reflects the kind of sounds that make library music so compelling: take a simple template and add unusual musical approaches ad infinitum... The handsomely printed book offers pleasures that are purely visual as well, from minimalist variations on a theme to psychedelic., The amazing cover designs of over 100 newly discovered library albums are beautifully reproduced (alongside all the sleeves contained in the first book) and accompanied by exhaustive, updated captions.

Synopsis
Library music--also known as source music and, occasionally, mood music--was first made for people who needed cheap, somewhat generic music as backgrounds for animations, low-budget advertisements, and television programs. Unavailable commercially to the public, this music was pressed from the 1950s onwards in limited quantities, and then sent directly to production houses and radio stations for use when necessary. The Music Library is a compilation of cover artwork from some of the most important--and beautiful--library LPs made throughout the 50s, 60s and 70s, some of which retail for up to $2,000 today. Features record sleeves from the collections of Jerry Dammers (The Specials), Jonny Trunk (of Trunk Records), YMC, Luke Vibert, Steve Stasis, Jazzman Gerald, Lo Recordings, Intoxical, Julian House and The Reverend Martin Green. Compiled by Trunk--who also wrote the introduction-- The Music Library features a foreword by Dammers and an exclusive CD of rare library recordings.

Not thrilled, my entire reason buying this out of print book was to get the CD that was originally included when it was first published. CD was not included, no mention of this in the listing — this purchase was like roulette, I knew I was taking my chances but I’m still disappointed. I grew up in Berkeley where Moe’s Books is based, so this is a drag — book had a big dent in the cover as well, also not mentioned. Still seeking the CD that was originally included when new.

This is an outstanding seller to deal with. Fair prices that are more than reasonable in this economy. The product is in better condition than described, a true value for my money. Packaged and shipped well shows seller has concern for the products he sells to arrive in excellent condition. The seller is friendly and communicates timely with his customers. I highly recommend this seller and would do business again anytime. Thank you!

Great seller! Item is what I ordered; good communication; shipped promptly; good value. NOTE TO SELLER: packaging was NOT appropriate for item; it was a flimsy, plastic envelope, with no stiff material to prevent creases. The book came with two deep creases that involved the *entire* item: one is a 1" triangle lower left side (bound edge); the other is a 7" triangle on upper right side (open edge).
