5.0 out of 5 stars Worth Searching For, December 25, 2002
By 
"jazzrage" (Port Washington, New York United States) - See all my reviews
This is a classic book, not just about "new age" music (and all the negative connotations that embodies) but new music in general from electronic to world to folk to rock. John Schaefer, the host of radio's program of the same name here provides an insight into all forms of new music, though admittedly it is a bit weak in the rock arena. Other than that this out of print book opens up new listening environments for those seeking them. If only it were updated.

5.0 out of 5 stars An eye-opener, December 14, 2011
This review is from: New Sounds: A Listener's Guide to New Music (Paperback)
I encountered this book about 20 years ago, and it opened my eyes and my record collection to a whole new world of music. I have so much to thank John Schaefer for that I don't know where to begin. I've been waiting years for a new edition, but till it comes out this will have to do. If you have a bright teenager with an interest in unusual music, then they need this book NOW! Otherwise, why not buy it for yourself?
