RAND BISHOP is an Assocciate Professor of English at the State University of New York at Oswego.
Among the Best This book covers a lot of topics regarding song writing. It could use more sample contracts and other examples. Because it's a few years old, it doesn't have much about the changes that have made the music business in the digital age even harder--easy to get new material out, but hard to make money. There's a whole new definition to what's a good song and what's a commercial song and the difference between the two.That said, it's among the best of this breed so it's worth the price.
Your greatest desire is for your original songs to be recorded, released, and broadcast. But do you have a realistic plan to make this dream your reality? Author and hit tunesmith Rand Bishop draws from 40 years of on-the-job experience while visiting with some of the most-honored song crafters of the last five decades, unveiling a long-term strategy for building a career composing hit songs. The lessons, essays, quotations, and profiles in this book reveal how a Song Dog becomes Top Dog.
