A thirty year journey through the Australian contemporary music industry with a lawyer who was there.
It's the hottest new book that combines great storytelling of classic music biz scenarios, with just enough law for learning to balance the justice meted out to the guilty and guileless in a rollicking series of true tales. It's like George Orwell's Animal Farm – written on three levels – which recounts amazing stories of pyrrhic victories and devastating defeats; an educational weaving of music business legalities and copyright in context with the classic scandals of the past 20 years; and it's a comedy from one of the wittiest and wildest raconteurs in the Australian music industry.
Phil Dwyer is one of the countries top lawyers and this book is one of the great reads in Australian Music Business.
