On This Day in Music History—Warner, J.
Anyone who has ever read anything about a
favorite musician will find that it is often the
so-called trivia that makes things memorable
about that person. Nowhere is this more
apparent than in this book. Add the context
of the progression of hundreds of parallel
lives through the timeline of a pseudo
calendar format and it becomes anything but
commonplace. This is especially intriguing
when coupled with music history. Over 2,000
entries are listed in chronological order,
covering every day of the year. By combining
a calendar format with wonderful photos and
illustrations, and an elevated element of trivia,
this new kind of to-the-point history in on-this-
day format sets a new trend in books for the
instant gratification of 21st-century culture.

Ska: The Rhythm of Liberation—Heather
Augustyn. In this book, the author examines
how ska music first emerged in Jamaica
as a fusion of popular, traditional, and even
classical musical forms. As a genre, it was a
connection to Africa, a means of expression
and protest, and a respite from the struggles of
colonization and grinding poverty. Ska would
later travel with West Indian immigrants to the
United Kingdom, where British youth embraced
the music, blending it with punk and pop and
working its origins as a music of protest and
escape into their present lives. The fervor of
the music matched the energy of the streets as
racism, poverty, and violence ran rampant. But
ska called for brotherhood and unity.

Song and System (The Making of American
Pop Music)—Harvey Rachlin. This investigatio
n of how music entered American homes
and became a cultural institution that would
expand to become a multibillion-dollar industry
weaves a history of the evolution of pop music
in tandem with the music business. Exploding
in the 1950s and '60s with pop stars like Elvis
and the Beatles, the music industry used new
technologies like television to promote live
shows and record releases. More recently,
the development of online streaming services
has forced the music industry to cultivate new
promotion, distribution, copyright, and profit
strategies. Pop music and its business have
defined our shared cultural history. This not
only charts the music that we all know and
love but also reveals our active participation in
its development throughout generations. This
great resource for recent music history delves
into all of this and more!
