Love for Sale: Pop Music in America is easy to devour for anyone who still feels a pang of nostalgia or despair when walking past a bank branch where a record store used to be.- The New York Times Book Review "One of our sharpest music critics."- The Wall Street Journal, " Love for Sale: Pop Music in America is easy to devour for anyone who still feels a pang of nostalgia or despair when walking past a bank branch where a record store used to be." -- The New York Times Book Review " One of our sharpest music critics." -- The Wall Street Journal " No, this is not just a standard history of "Pop Music in America." This is a very personal and utterly wonderful book about the subject." -- Buffalo News " Writing in graceful prose, Hajdu nicely balances brisk historical narrative, shrewd cultural analysis, and opinionated personal reflection in an absorbing account of shifting musical landscapes." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) " A highly learned pleasure for music and pop-culture buffs." -- Kirkus Reviews "This beautifully told history of popular music, like a great pop song, is full of memorable lines." -- Library Journal " Pop music is often dismissed as light, frivolous and artistically bankrupt. But in his new book Love for Sale , music critic David Hajdu argues that it's one of the most meaningful forms of expression in American culture." -- Time Magazine "A blend of history, criticism, and autobiography...it does touch on most major developments in how pop music has been produced and consumed in the United States from the 1890s through the present." -- Los Angeles Review of Books

Synopsis
Pop Music: Our Most Influential Laboratory for Social and Aesthetic Experimentation--Changing the World Three Minutes at a Time Named a Must-Read by Vanity Fair and the BBC as well as a Best Book of the Year by Publishers Weekly In Love for Sale: Pop Music in America , from the vaudeville singer Eva Tanguay, the "'I Don't Care' Girl," who upended Victorian conceptions of feminine property to become one of the biggest stars of her day, to the scandal of Blondie playing disco at CBGB, David Hajdu--one of the most respected music historians of our time--presents an incisive and idiosyncratic history of a form that has repeatedly upset social and cultural expectations. Hajdu, unbound by the usual tropes of pop music history, gives a star turn to Bessie Smith and the blues queens of the 1920s who brought wildly transgressive sexuality to American audiences decades before rock and roll. And Jimmie Rodgers, a former blackface minstrel performer, who created country music from the songs of rural whites and blacks...entwined with the sound of the Swiss yodel. Surveying the late-nineteenth century to the present era of digital streaming, Love for Sale is as authoritative as it is impassioned, drawing from the critic's unique history as a besotted fan and lifelong student of pop.

    I ordered 3 books. The "buy 2 get 1 free" almost sounded too good to be true. I was pleasantly surprised when the books arrived today. They are in great condition. No damaged corners. Shipping: Books were wrapped in plain brown paper. Then that packed into a padded envelope. I have saved you as a seller. Hopefully we can do business again.
