The Rough Guide Book of Playlists, 2nd edition (Rough Guide Reference) [Paperback] Review

Fun and easy to read. It is British. Listening to music has changed from concept albums to singles on playlists. How do you find the tunes you would like?

This book has hundreds of lists of music listed by style.The lists, submitted by musicians, critics, and fans,have short descriptions of the songs, and is also a small music history overview.Perfect little pocket reader for the folks who haven't had much time to discover new stuff.I have downloaded many songs that have been a delight. The book has also helped me enjoy even more about the songs I already liked. The review on the front says "mind-expanding and irresistible" and I completely agree!

Product Description:
iPods and MP3 players have changed the way we listen to music: it's all about songs rather than albums, and making your own compilations. This is the first music guide that gets it: a book of 500 playlists, each of them packed with great music to rip or download. It features artists from Marvin Gaye to Nick Cave, Björk to Manu Chao, Rufus Wainwright to Thelonious Monk, Frank Sinatra to Franz Ferdinand, genres from Britpop to Krautrock, dub to Motown, bebop to bhangra, punk to drum'n'bass, fado to gangsta rap, and themes including Broken hearts, motoring music, protest songs, and covers that beat the originals. Packed with quirks and silliness including singing drummers, aliens, chickens and insects, drinking songs, and even music raved about in Murakami novels.
