Title: Not everyone writes rock songs
Review: If you are an instrumental/classical composer, if you don't know lots of A&R people (or if you don't know what A&R is don't expect him to tell you in the book), or if you want to save yourself some money that you could be using to promote your music online: don't bother with this book. I read it cover to cover and I didn't learn anything useful. A) It took several chapters before he even gets to the self-publishing. And B) once you are there you realize just how impossible it is. I'm not bitter, I just don't write the kind of music he is talking about. But I also think music is like any business: it's who you know, not how good you are. So, get out there and network!
