"LOVE IS THE MESSAGE"
...I think if any, that would be the main theme running
through Last Night A DJ Saved My Life. Which I finished
reading last night...and i really want to share it with
everyone...in fact i would have posted this last night
but the book had me digging through my old cd's and
listening to music for hours...so please believe me when
i tell you, It's SOOO Good! This book ties a myriad of
musical forms that have evolved in the past fifty plus
years, and shows the fascinating and sometimes
surprising relationships between them. In addition to
a variety of musical genres, dj's, and dance, the book
even covers radio...one of my favorite quotes from
the book is:

"The entry of broadcasting into the history of music has
changed all forms of musical creation and reception.
Radio music is a kind of magic and the radio set
becomes a magic box." -Helmut Reinhold

So make no mistakes folks, there's magic at work!
