Keyboard Presents the Best of the 80's ReviewIf you grew up in the 1980's and lived through the technical revolution that MIDI created, then this book is for you! These are reprints of articles from Keyboard magazine from the 1980's with bands that were on the cutting edge of music technology. There's more here then just dance music though. The interviews with Peter Gabriel and Frank Zappa are wonderful, in-depth explorations into these artist's creative process.
If you are looking for non-technical interviews with the bands represented here then I suggest you look someplace else. These interviews go into gear, recording process and touring issues. Given that much of this technology is somewhat out of date makes reading the articles a bit difficult. If you are interested in more of the overall history of electronic music, another Keyboard publication would be a better bet. "The Art Of Electronic Music" is an earlier book and has some of the same interviews that this book contains. However, there are some wonderful articles in the earlier book about electronic music before the days of MIDI, even going back to experiments in electronic music from the first half of the 20th century.
This book is definitely a great resource for anyone who enjoyed 1980's synth-pop but I was hoping for something just a little bit deeper!Keyboard Presents the Best of the 80's Overview
