Useful for the Most Part
Most people, even if they've been living in Siberia, have heard of Bruce Springsteen, Jerry Garcia and Peter Tork - all famous and respected musicians. However, there are just as many unknowns profiled in this book, which makes identifying with their careers and music more difficult. (Just where does one find recordings by Julia Darling?) Other than that gripe, Bruce Pollock has broken his work into logical chapters - the first album, gigging, etc. If one is serious about making a living as a 'working musician,' then I could see how this book would be valuable.
