Trade ReviewReceived the award for Best Research in Recorded Rock or Popular Music from the Association for Recorded Sound Collections (ARSC), 2011. Winner of the Belmont Country Music Book of the Year Award, 2011.
"A detailed and engaging account of music publisher Jean Aberbach's long life and the musical empire he built with his brother Julian. In telling the story of Hill and Range Songs, Biszick-Lockwood puts the emphasis right where it should be: on the innovations and forward thinking that made Aberbach's great success possible.”--Ronnie Pugh, author of Ernest Tubb: The Texas Troubadour
"Any reader with an interest in the music industry will find valuable information and analysis here, and fans of country music will learn much about the relationships among Hill and Range artists such as Elvis Presley, Hank Snow, and Eddy Arnold, and songwriters such as Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller. Highly recommended."--
