The most important book I have ever owned Sep 06, 2008
By Stephen A. Freund
"Zcloudman"
This book is an absolute must have for musicians. It is a "how-to" manual for musicians. I STRONLY advice never signing any contract or enter into any deal, as a musician, until you have read this book!!!!! It has saved my @$&@ more than once. Whether you are just playing gigs at bars and clubs, recording at home, or trying to go big, this book can be used as a stand alone road map. I have been using the first edition since the early 90's and just decided to purchase the 4th. This version is even better than the first because now it has been updated for the digital age. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. One browse through its pages and you will quickly realize the gem you hold in you hands. I must sound like a spoke person for the book, but I really believe in its value.

Must have this book Oct 09, 2008
By David G. Ray
"Davy Ray"
As an instructor of a Music Industry class at the University of Oregon, I highly recommend this book for the chapter on the recording contract alone. The publisher sent me a copy for consideration to use in class. While I currently use the Brabec book I do tell my students about the Biz and Legal Guide. Should I ever expand the class I will certainly require it. Meanwhile, I can at least give it a good review.

One of the holy trinity of the music business books Dec 12, 2009

Worth every cent... including the overnight shipping fee! Nov 20, 2011
By Rizzy I just received this book today, and I haven't been able to put it down. My brain is swelling with all of the amazing, and comprehensive information I've already taken in. My band is getting close to releasing our first album, and quite honestly, I wish I would have stumbled upon this book months ago so we'd have all of our "legal ducks in a row" before publishing. However, I'm still psyched to have it now. Great purchase!

music business Mar 05, 2011
By Abztrakt This book helped me to get through my music business class. Not only that but i get now a more sense of this business in this industry. It is a book definitely worth keeping for later on down the road. It will help you also with titles such as contracts, whats on the contracts, what to discuss, what to sign, the artist/band royalties and so much more. This guide is the legit handbook to have to get you to where you want and need to go.
