Today the industry will gross over $20 billion. How didthis change happen? From the moment Pete Seeger tried to cut thepower at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival debut of Bob Dylan'selectric band, rock's cultural influence and business potentialhave been grasped by a rare assortment of ambitious and farsightedmusicians and businessmen. Jon Landau took calls from legendaryproducer Jerry Wexler in his Brandeis dorm room and went on toorchestrate Bruce Springsteen's career. Albert Grossman's cold-eyedassessment of the financial power at his clients' fingertips madehim the first rock manager to blaze the trail that David Geffentransformed into a superhighway. Dylan's uncanny ability to keephis manipulation of the business separate from his art andreputation prefigured the savvy -- and increasingly cynical --professi

In Stardust Melodies, Will Friedwald takes each of theselegendary songs apart and puts it together again, with a staggeringwealth of detail and unprecedented understanding.
