5.0 out of 5 stars Explains how to survive and expand one's career, February 12, 2001

Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Moving up in the Music Business (Paperback)

Moving Up in the Music Business will be welcomed by any who want to work in the music business: it tells the pros and cons of working for a major versus an independent record label, explains how to survive and expand one's career within the music industry, and provides plenty of behind the scenes details on everything from publicity and music producing to making a career in touring. Outstanding.
