POP! I'm a big fan of bubblegum music (it's not often someone will openly admit that), and I thought this book was going to be interesting. It was, to an extent. All of my favorite bands were listed (1910 Fruitgum Company, Ohio Express, and my personal faves, The Monkees), and a lot of the cartoon rock bands were talked about, too (mostly from Hanna-Barbera Studios, such as The Impossibles, Josie and the Pussycats, and the Banana Splits, just to name a few). Another one of the book's best moments was the "100 Greatest Moments of Bubblegum" list in the beginning (or something like that)However, . Bubblegum Music finally gets its' due!! R. Koenig It was quite a treat to see many of the records/artists of my youth mentioned as well as pointing out that the music I heard as a kid may have been quite suggestive! Explains what Prince was listening to as a child! I liked your inclusion of items ranging from David cassidy to TV show cartoon music to even early punk. The book, being a collection of articles made the book a bit fragmentedbut still a good read! Missing a few artists, but then many were listed I didn't even think of. If you liked Saturday Morning cartoon music, PLEASE buy this book!!. Bob Ashley said Brilliant!. If you,like me,are an avid fan of the bubblegum rock bands of the 60s-70s you will love this book!Besides looking at classic bands like the archies,ohio express,1910 fruitgum co,boyce and hart,etc the book covers the people behind the scenes who were,literally,pulling the strings.Very revealing read.Buy this!
The truth behind the pop music we love most.
University libraries should also purchase for popular music studies collections. The book excels at showing the human side of these mostly forgotten artists and their producers. Law Sch. An excellent "Recommended Listening" section and a useful index round out the volume. More than 30 contributors offer essays on forgotten artists whose songs are still played on oldies radio stations: the Archies, the Cowsills, and 1910 Fruitgum Company, among others. Full of illustrations of classic album covers and artist photos (regrettably in washed-out black and white), this quirky and entertaining book is recommended as a reference for all compre
