Product Description
Synopsis
Since the earliest music companies began at the end of the 19th century, many record labels have come and gone, been taken over or merged. Some have been owned by retailers, DJs, agents or managers, others by artists or vast media, electronics and film companies. From A&M Records, to Motown, to ZTT, "The A-Z of Record Labels" explores the colourful history of one of the most important aspects of popular music. For many fans, a song on the "right" label is as important as the artist recording it. From classical to soul, jazz to rock, folk to rap, every record label has its own successes, its own agenda and its own story. Those stories are collected here in "The A-Z Of Record Labels", offering an insight into one of the most important parts in the history of popular music.
