Upcoming Project: The Best Music You’ve Never Heard
This book was given to me as a gift by a friend when we were at the airport on our way back from London. I was ready with all my flight pack: headphones, mp3 player (ok, it’s an iPhone), a couple of sudoku puzzles and something to read-“The Best Music You’ve Never Heard“. It is a perfect gift for someone who is desperate to learn about unknown artists. The first thing that came to my mind was to make regular posts about the songs in the book like I used to make before. But after I started reading it, I decided to turn this book into a project. I’ll be sharing some interesting information about artists from this book and my favorite songs of theirs with you. I know that I have to make a lot of research and listen to thousands of songs. This book will be my guide through this journey. As a matter of fact, I made my very first post about a song from this book (you’ve already seen it here ) three weeks ago.
“Sometimes the music was genuinely ahead of its time. Sometimes it simply failed to find an audience due to the stupidity and/or venality of record companies, managers and other hangers-on. But in each case, the result was the same – great music didn’t get the exposure or sales it deserved at the time” says the writer of the book, Nigel Williamson who is a former news editor of The Times, a rock writer and a journalist. There are also other writers such as David Smyth and Robert Webb, who have contributed to some sections. So, stay tuned for for the next couple of days bacause I’ll be sharing some playlists and amazing stories about the artists under the guide of this brilliant book.
