My
Review:
Having had some (not a lot) of personal first-hand experience with some of the headaches involved with self-promoting via the airwaves and over a variety of newer listener supported and commercial avenues, I could have really used this handy and unbelievably valuable handbook many years ago. This handbook is a highly detailed, informative, user-friendly, concise and well written manual in relation to wading thru the obstacles musicians find in the simple act of just being heard. This handbook is geared towards musicians, but would be a great asset to own for anybody concerned with self-promotion through communication. I give this book my highest accolade! Five stars!
