Striking, keen, analysis of this scene- IN DEPTH,
By rbod (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sounding Salsa: Performing Latin Music in New York City (Studies In Latin America & Car) (Paperback)
As a participant in part of the time that the book focuses on, My hat goes off to Chris. It's probably one of the best examinations of ANY music genre done. Also in addition whether you be a musician, fan, etc. You will see yourself and be forced to examine your motives for your involvement. It really goes below the surface.
Also very nice theory examination of Clave controversies. The book seems to be currently under the radar as I haven't heard much rumbling about it. But I'm sure that that is to come.

This review is from: Sounding Salsa: Performing Latin Music in New York City (Studies In Latin America & Car) (Paperback)
From India getting into trouble for making sexual comments about bandmembers, musicians getting their instruments jacked on their way out the club, the "Vampire" after hour clubs in NYC, and even how certain vocalists like Frankie Ruiz lacked the respect of musicians, it is a great expose on the lives and issues Salsa musicians face.
Very enjoyable. |
