Just yesterday, I read a review of a new book by two Cinti writers
called "Little Labels--Big Sound : Small Record Companies and the
Rise of American Music." I can't find the review on the paper's
website, but the book basically covers many of the small but
influential regional labels, like King and Sun. The book apparently
focuses pretty evenly on rock, jazz, and blues.
