Comprehensive "pop music on compact disc" book.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 27 years ago
Only a handful of books exist that provide collectors of popmusic withinformation on whether a certain song that hit the charts is available on compact disc or not. This is the best of them. Not only does it take the approach of listing every CD that a song may have appeared on, it also, as much as possible, provides important info on whether a song was a single or lp version, its time, stereo/mono, etc. Downey links all songs to its highest chart position and year of release using rankings in record industry mag, Cashbox, possible its only drawback considering that Billboard is the leading indicator. Nonetheless a fine book providing collectors with a much needed resource!
