Product Description

Book Description

The story of dance music told by the people who made it happen --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

Product Description

This book is a tribute to the obsessives, the playboys, the musical eccentrics who founded the craft of DJing. They developed wild new techniques for performing with recorded music, and revolutionised the way we create and enjoy it. They gave us new ways to have the times of our lives and built a worldwide industry of nightlife and dance music. From unsung pioneers to overheated superstars, these are the people who made playing records matter.

The Record Players includes in-depth interviews with 50 of history's most significant DJs, including Fabio, Derrick May, Jeff Mills, Cool Herc, John Peel, Grandmaster Flash, DJ Shadow, Jimmy Savile, Paul Oakenfold, Norman Cook, Pete Tong, Tiesto, Dreem Teem, Jeff Dexter and many more.

Superb 18 Dec 2010
Format:Paperback
One of the , no sorry,the best book covering the subject ever written.
Frank and Bill know there stuff and have an obvious rap-ore with their interviewees.

An excellent historic review of the genre and the play lists are the icing on the cake. However my iTunes account is becoming rapidly overdrawn!!
