Featuring essays by luminaries across genres and spanning generations, the book offers an intimate look at the music that has privately influenced and moved these artists. Each essay features an album, artist, or a set of songs that the artist feels should have been considered classics among the collective consciousness but have been underappreciated. Some reflect chapters in the work of widely recognized artists, while others are long out of print, self-released, or hard to find. Many of the essays were written by the artists themselves, while others grew out of exclusive new conversations, shaped into written stories that preserve the voice and spirit of those exchanges. Each artist’s reflection is paired with album art and imagery that bring these records to life. \u003ci\u003eOn the Records\u003c\/i\u003e unfolds with the quiet pleasure of browsing a well-loved record collection—a book to linger with as much as to read.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is the book for music-lovers who want to be inspired again, by the discovery of songs and sounds that they’ve never heard before. For listeners who value discovery and the deeper connections people form with great recordings, \u003ci\u003eOn the Records \u003c\/i\u003eopens a path to extraordinary music, shared by the artists whose work has shaped the way we listen.","brand":"Clarkson Potter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48076800557311,"sku":"9780593800461","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780593800461_s600x595.jpg?v=1781541910","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780593800461","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
