Book Description

1423454588 978-1423454588 October 1, 2008
The indispensable resource for anyone in the music business. Every business arrangement in the music industry comes down to the written agreement between the parties engaged in the project at hand. When you're co-writing with other songwriters or making publishing agreements, recording agreements with independent record labels, or film sync license agreements for music used in TV, film, the Internet and commercials, what is in writing is what ultimately governs the deal with you and your business. Whether you are the publisher, label, studio, producer, engineer, or artist, The Music Business Contract Library contains over 125 different contract templates and forms that you need, along with Greg's professional experience in commentary on how he has used them and why. This massive library comes with a CD-ROM, which delivers over 125 forms in fully editable Microsoft Word format for use in your own business.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Music Business by Hal Leonard, October 11, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Music Business Contract Library (Hal Leonard Music Pro Guides) (Paperback)
This is an excellent book to read for anyone who is interested in taking that pathway into the music industry. It sets good guidlines for starting a sincere interest in starting a band with business practices. The many contracts that appear in this book certainly shines light on ways to protect yourself legally and get the most out of your musical career. I would highly recommend this book to all individuals who would like to explore this musical venture.

3.0 out of 5 stars warning: Kindle version does not include CD!!, January 10, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
The book makes reference to the contracts included in the CD but the kindle version does not include the CD, making the book worthless for anyone who buys the kindle version.
