This book was a perfect fit for me. I am of an age where I know almost all the music covered in this book (many of the early songs are among those enjoyed by my parents and grandparents). The short chapters on the creation of each piece made it convenient to pick up this book and read even just a chapter or two when I had a few minutes to spare.
Mr. Faine‘s discussion provides alternate information when there is more than one story about the origin of a song. His research is well documented and shared in an easy to read format. Best of all, he even adds links to some so that the reader can listen to them on the internet if he/she chooses.
This book is a real treat for those who love a variety of musical styles. Mr. Faine has covered everything from jazz to big band to show music and pop tunes in a time frame ranging from 1918 to 1989. It would also be a great gift for the “hard to buy for” music fan in your life.
I am looking forward to Book Two.
