What is Encyclopedia of popular music in America : 1888 to the present about?
This meticulously researched set includes 200,000 songs that were "hits" between 1888 and the end of 1994. The first two volumes include alphabetical and chronological lists of the songs. The third volume lists the songwriters alphabetically. Each song entry includes the year it was written, the writer or writers of both the words and music, the band or individual who first performed the song, and the record label. Lissauer frequently adds interesting trivia to the entries--especially to his favorite show tunes or historically important music--about Broadway performances, film adaptations, unique instrumentation, or important events. c.
