Reviews

-Denisoff . . . has produced in this book the first serious study of the business of the contemporary record industry. A valuable addition to libraries.- --Choice

-R. Serge Denisoff, who in my opinion is the heavy weight champion of rock trivia, extracts the inner core of the popular record industry and shows how the rock and roll apple is sliced. . . . Denisoff has cranked out his own special artifact: Solid Gold is a robust, self-styled classic that is useful to the rock connoisseur and the sociologist of music and popular culture alike. . . . [Keep] a copy of Solid Gold handy. It goes well with paradigms and/or stereo headphones.- --Joseph Damrell, Contemporary Sociology

-Since its publication . . . Solid Gold has understandably become a staple in the popular culture literature. A richly detailed portrait of the popular record industry.- --Edward R. Kealy, American Journal of Sociology
