Rock On: An Office Power Ballad

A book recommendation:

I enjoy reading humorous, non-fiction accounts of life by people who never quite made it to where they thought they would. I figure you might as well. In Rock On, we're invited into the life of Dan Kennedy as he begins his longtime dream of working for a record label (Atlantic). If you've been alive in the past several years you know the music industry is a bit of a failing joke, and in this book you get to experience that failing from the inside, even if Kennedy never really addresses the industry's demise explicitly. It's an interesting look at how labels like Atlantic few the "hit making" process and a confirmation that some executives just don't get it.
