Swamp Pop
This is very apparently an expansion of a graduate thesis. There is a lot of "The purpose of this chapter..." and "To summarize." There are some great stories in this book, and if you are unfamiliar with the genre, your musical life will definitely be enriched by following up the artists it chronicles. Unfortunately, the prose is clunky and dry, and the voices of the principals are encysted therein in such a way as to rob them off their vitality.
