Love Goes To Buildings On Fire: Five Years In New York That Changed Music Forever by Will Hermes

4.0

A great book that takes an in-depth look at music in New York City between 1973 and 1977. In those five years, as the city faced monumental challenges, punk rock, hip-hop, loft jazz, disco, salsa and minimalism were either created or reinvented. Hermes does a great job of following the artists who pushed music forward, as well as those who were lost in the shuffle. It's the story of immense change in a city that's always changing.
