Playback is the first book to place the fascinating history of
sound reproduction within its larger social, economic, and cultural
context-and includes appearances by everyone from Thomas Edison to
Enrico Caruso to Dick Clark to Grandmaster Flash to Napster CEO
Shawn Fanning. In a narrative that begins with Edison's cylinder
and ends with digital music, the ubiquitous iPod, and the
file-sharing wars, this is a history we have all experienced in one
way or another. From the Victrola, the 78, the 45, and the 33 1/3
to the 8-track, cassette, compact disc, DAT, and MP3, the story of
Playback is also the story of music, and the music business in the
twentieth century and beyond.
