This book concerns itself with only recorded popular music. The definition of popular music is simple. It is the traditional characterization of any genre of music having wide appeal (but usually only for a short time), although I personally do not agree with idea of it being popular for only a short period of time. Another description is any form of music without classical structures. So that means many genres have been considered in putting this project together. From country to folk, big band to disco, rhythm and blues to hip hop, show tunes to television themes, rock to heavy metal, jazz to new wave and many categories in between - all of them have been a factor in American recorded popular music history therefore they were considered. This book contains what is arguably the greatest overall artists in the history of recorded popular music taking into consideration all the talents that have brought them to be described in this publication. It is a fascinating trip through the years that puts into perspective a genre of entertainment that has been a part of almost every person"s life. For a music lover, the book is a perfect trip to enhance their enjoyment of their favorite form of entertainment and for the casual music listener it is informative and quite interesting,
