-Denisoff . . . has produced in this book the first serious study
of the business of the contemporary record industry. A valuable
addition to libraries.- --Choice
-R. Serge Denisoff, who in my opinion is the heavy weight champion
of rock trivia, extracts the inner core of the popular record
industry and shows how the rock and roll apple is sliced. . . .
Denisoff has cranked out his own special artifact: Solid Gold is a
robust, self-styled classic that is useful to the rock connoisseur
and the sociologist of music and popular culture alike. . . .
[Keep] a copy of Solid Gold handy. It goes well with paradigms
and/or stereo headphones.- --Joseph Damrell, Contemporary
Sociology
-Since its publication . . . Solid Gold has understandably become a
staple in the popular culture literature. A richly detailed
portrait of the popular record industry.- --Edward R. Kealy,
American Journal of Sociology
