4.0 out of 5 stars Greil Marcus meets Paul Berliner, May 13, 2000
This is a good study of Juju and an essential read for anyone who likes the genre. Those interested in international pop music will probably also find it worthwhile.

I would have liked to see a little more analysis of the actual music, but that's really my only negative comment - and the chapter which breaks down a juju performance piece by piece is one of the finest works of ethnomusicology I've had the pleasure to read.
