Follow the Music: The Life and High Times of Elektra Records in the Great Years of American Pop Culture - Softcover
(Book). Follow the Music tells the story of one of the finest and most respected record labels of the golden age of pop and rock music from the perspective of the man who founded the company and nurtured its stars. It follows Holzman on his journey from overseeing limited pressings of obscure folk artists to signing international stars such as Jim Morrison, right up to the sale of the company and beyond. Since its initial publication in 1998, the book has been described as "a must-read addition to the best chronicles of popular music in this over-stimulated century" by Timothy White, editor in chief at Billboard magazine, and an "extraordinary history ... funny, enlightening, and entertaining" by the All Music Guide . This edition includes a 26-track CD of recordings by Elektra's pre-rock artists.

Synopsis:
By the founder and 23-year president of Elektra Records. Jac Holzman witnessed a cultural transformation during the time he ran Elektra Records from 1950 to 1973. Follow the Music captures pivotal scenes of pop culture as Holzman saw them, from what happened backstage when Bob Dylan went electric to Jim Morrison's legendary shenanigans. Jac was instrumental in the development of many of the top artists in the history of recorded music, including Phil Ochs, Judy Collins, the Doors, Tim Buckley, Jackson Browne, the MC5, the Stooges, Carly Simon, Bread, Harry Chapin, and Queen. This paperback version contains the definitive discography of the albums recorded during Jac Holzman's Elektra years plus a new bound-in CD featuring 25 complete tracks of early Elektra artists, most of which are no longer in print.
