You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

This 2014 book is about the promotional guys of the record labels called "record men". It begins at the invention of the phonautograph in 1857. Acording to a later chapter, many of the early CDs were manufactured from cassette masters instead of the ones made for vinyl as there wasn't a special master mixed for CD. I finished reading it a few days ago. Interesting book.

This also came out in 2014 and is about Mike's business dealings during his lifetime and how the estate rebounded after his passing
