"Mark gives a concise, yet powerful understanding of the overall music industry and the individual opportunities that are unique to all of us. --Mike Curb, Legendary Music Business Executive Mark has created the definitive guide to today's complex and challenging music business, written with all of Mark's renowned expertise, warmth, and wit. An entertaining, patient, and thorough roadmap through the bewildering landscape of today's music scene, it's the one book I would recommend if you want to understand and navigate any aspect of the music industry. Here's the go-to guidebook for any aspiring vocalist, musician, songwriter, publisher, or record producer (or any of the above who would love a refresher course!) --Rupert Holmes, Tony-award winning composer and lyricist, RIAA-certified gold and platinum singer-songwriter-producer Though this book is impressively comprehensive, beautifully organized and filled with vital, true data, the author has a purpose to inspire and genuinely wants his reader to succeed. This is no coincidence since aside from his being a great communicator and teacher, Mark is also a noted songwriter, publisher, playwright, and producer in his own right. This work is more definitive than most because its author is smart, literate and has ""walked the walk."" Thank you, Mark, for this extraordinary gift to all of your fellow artists. --David Pomeranz, Multi Platinum Award-Winning Recording Artist and Songwriter"
