Summary: NASHVILLE SONG SYSTEM DESCRIBED IN HELPFUL GUIDEBOOK
Review: Koller is a working Nashville songwriter who also sits on the board of the Nashville Songwriter's Association International (NSAI), which does a terrific job of mentoring capable young songwriters and giving them an entry point into the Nashville writers' community. The title pretty well describes the book, and Koller is an author equal to his task. On another point, as Writer's Digest pulls back from its ten years of leadership in the field of music business books (mid-80's to mid- 90's), I'm glad to see former Writer's Digest authors such as Koller and Paul Zollo finding good second homes. In the case of Fred Koller, our thanks go to Allworth Press in New York, a division of Billboard Books. Ron Simpson, School of Music, Brigham Young University. Author of MASTERING THE MUSIC BUSINESS.
