Music, Management, Marketing, and Law: Interviews Across the Music Business Value Chain (Music Business Research)

"This collection of interviews captures a period of historic change for the global music business along with a wealth of professional knowledge that extends from the late 1960s through to late 2012 when the interviews were conducted. They record the experiences and insights of people who helped to shape a global business that is quickly passing into history and transforming into something entirely new, often because of decisions the interviewees have been directly involved in making. The material includes the aesthetic, artistic, technical, commercial, legal, and strategic aspects of the music industry. What is said is timeless in its historical significance for the music business and in its relevance for researchers engaged in studies on the dynamics of change in the global commercial music landscape."--Page 4 de la couverture Front Matter ....Pages i-vii Introduction (Phil Graham)....Pages 1-14 Michael Smellie, Global Record Executive (Phil Graham)....Pages 15-32 Peter Colby, Production and Logistics (Phil Graham)....Pages 33-55 John Watson, Music Manager (Phil Graham)....Pages 57-86 Michael Taylor, A&R Manager (Phil Graham)....Pages 87-105 Stuart Rubin, Global Marketing Manager (Phil Graham)....Pages 107-131 Shane Simpson, Music Lawyer (Phil Graham)....Pages 133-150 Shaun James, Music TV (Phil Graham)....Pages 151-176 Toby Cresswell, Music Journalist (Phil Graham)....Pages 177-196 Harley Medcalf, Promoter (Phil Graham)....Pages 197-218 Kate Miller-Heidke and Keir Nuttall (Phil Graham)....Pages 219-235 Retrospective Conclusions and Predictions (Phil Graham)....Pages 237-246
