During the one and a quarter centuries since recording began, entirely new kinds of music have been invented and within those genres, different variations have been explored. At the beginning of the twentieth century, jazz, the blues, and country had barely started. Rock music was still more than fifty years away. For many people, the whole question as to who were the inventors and the innovators through the years within these and the other musical forms is a matter of intense interest. Who was the first electric guitarist or synthesizer player? Who invented sampling? What was the first progressive rock or heavy metal or modern jazz or funk record? This book seeks to find the answers, with the help of around 850 pictues of record sleeves and artists. Nick Hamlyn is the author of the best-selling Penguin Price Guide For Record And CD Collectors.
