5.0 out of 5 stars A musicians instruction manual, April 6, 2000

Marc Freeman (Atlanta) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Platinum Rainbow: How to Succeed in the Music Business Without Selling Your Soul (Paperback)

I read the book in the Mid 80's while living in California and saw all of the myths that I thought were just that myths come to light out of the dark. This book is slimmer that the most of them but contains everything you need. "A musicians instruction manual."

This review is from: The Platinum Rainbow: How to Succeed in the Music Business Without Selling Your Soul (Paperback)

I have read the Platinum Rainbow, and it is an honest view of what you'd better know if you are trying to succeed in the music business. A must have for all aspiring musicians! I wish this book was still in print, because it makes a great gift for all my fellow bandmates and musician friends.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good, May 20, 2006

Crystal "www.MusicContracts101.com" - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Platinum Rainbow: How to Succeed in the Music Business Without Selling Your Soul (Paperback)

The title might seem as a joke to some people but selling your soul is just about the last thing you need to do to succeed in the music industry. Many actions and events in the music industry seem like playing Russian roulette with fait and in many occasions it's jus a matter of time before someone gets "shot" down. A cruel world doesn't accept weak people but this book teaches you exactly how to be the strong man in the equation. With interesting structure and ease of access this tile is one of the best guides to stardom that you'll ever see
