Galley Friend Gabriel Rossman’s long-awaited (for me) book on how FM radio still drives chart success in the recording industry is finally out. It’s called Climbing the Charts.
If you’ve followed Rossman’s stuff elsewhere you know how good he is at taking complicated pointy-headed models and making them accessible to normal readers. He’s one of those rare academics–like Paul Cantor–whose base sensibility is firmly popular. He just happens to have the formal scholarly structure built on top of it.
Go pick up a copy. You’ll thank yourself.
