Exploding

The Highs, Hits, Hype, Heroes, and Hustlers of the Warner Music Group

  • 3 Want to read

"That's how Vanity Fair described the record business turmoil of the 1990s, which moved the Warner Music Group - the world's number one record company - from the entertainment pages to the front pages. Suddenly, decades of riotous fun and booming business went splat. Top music executives got evicted from their offices, some escorted by company guards. Why? The answers are in Exploding - the most insightful and delightful book about the record business ever written.".

"In the rock explosion of the Sixties and Seventies, Warner Bros., Atlantic, and Elektra Records dominated the business as the Warner Music Group. But by the Nineties, the success of WMG was shaken by egos and corporate politics that left the company struggling for identity in a dramatically changing industry. This is the story of that long, strange trip."--BOOK JACKET.
