We just got our hands on some brand new unblemished hardcover copies of this excellent take on the cornucopia of offerings on hand during the mid-1970s NYC music scene and how they shaped the future of music that we are able to offer at half price.  Here's a nice review by Gerald Marzorati of NY Times.  And author, Will Hermes continues to provide fresh material relevant to the era on his regularly updated blog for the book, which is totally worth a visit.
