klwest21 's review for:
If you are looking for an ode to the 80s and a hefty dose of music talk, then this is the book for you. If you wish you could listen to more hours of Sound Opinions or jump inside and edition of Paste or Rolling Stone and banter about the merits of your favorite 80s one hit wonder or which band was the most stellar in 1983, then you've found the pages of your dreams. However, I like a more predominant story line with the music playing a solid supporting role and a little less internal music debate.
He discusses a dichotomy in his book about how girls like songs with melodies and guy prefer a big bass/drums and lyrics.
What can I say? I wanted more Melody in this book! I would rather read about people with the bonus of the accompanying soundtrack, rather than have the focus lay predominantly on the merits of the music alone. I really liked a previous book of his, Love is a Mix Tape much better because it seemed to draw you in to the personal story and weave in musical references smoothly in a supporting way rather than the main attraction.
