The Business

A History of Popular Music from Sheet Music to Streaming

Simon Napier-Bell
After rejecting the offer to swap ‘swinging London for a songwriters’ Alcatraz’ at New York’s Brill Building in 1966, Simon Napier-Bell was left with a profound sense of songwriting as a business as much as a creative endeavour – something that endured throughout his fifty-year career. In this volume he presents an account of the industry’s evolution, from the 18th-century copyright laws that made publishing sheet music profitable to today’s streaming services.
