Volume I: Media, Industry and Society
Order Now!
This volume contains two major sections: ‘Social and
Cultural Dimensions’ and ‘The Industry’. The former contains
many entries on social phenomena of relevance to the practise
of popular music : entries such as class, deviance, fashion,
gender and sexuality, love and courtship, politics, race,
religion, spirituality, and youth. It also includes entries
on three other sets of phenomena that provide contexts for
the practise of popular music: institutions and practises
that document popular music; the study of popular music; and
stylistic and textual practices that are not themselves musical
in nature. Thus, for example, this section covers disciplines
and trajectories (for example, poststructuralism) that have
contributed to research and publication on popular music.
The section on ‘The Industry’ contains numerous entries on
recording studios, music publishers, record labels, many of
which are of historical importance. For reasons of historical
documentation, the sheet music listings, discographical references
and discographies for these entries contain the first publication
details of songs and recordings. However, to assist readers
in hearing this music where possible, reference is also frequently
made to reissues of older recordings on compact disc. This
section also covers the broadcasting media, copyright issues,
audio-technical and other hardware terms.

From Reviews...
‘This is an extraordinary achievement and it will become an
absolutely vital and trusted resource for everyone working
in the field of popular music studies. Even more broadly,
anyone interested in popular music or popular music culture
more generally will enjoy – and find many uses for – the wealth
of information and insight captured in this volume,’
Lawrence Grossberg, Morris Davis Professor of Communication
Studies and Cultural Studies, University of North Carolina
at Chapel Hill
‘This is a fabulous book. It will be indispensable to students
of popular music not only as the ultimate work of reference,
but also as a good read. Start browsing and it is almost impossible
to stop!’
Professor Simon Frith, Department of Film and Media, University
of Stirling
