Reviews
A well-researched valentine to a lost world of seedy con men, promoters and club owners, the power brokers and hustlers who made the 'circuitry spark.', Lauterbach spins the tale with enormous vitality and it's terribly fun to read. He masterfully explains the complex logistics of the entertainment industry, and studs the book with fascinating, little-known characters. . . . The reader will finish with an overwhelming urge to turn up the volume., This sprawling, fascinating history drops readers into a chaotic, dangerous, utterly vanished world., Opens new doors in pop-music scholarship as well as American (and African-American) cultural history., ...crucial to our understanding of late-20th-century pop music and all the more impressive for its exhaustive research. Preston Lauterbach's book--spirited, studious, surprising, occasionally hilarious--is absolutely persuasive on its subject.
