How Women Made Music: A Revolutionary History from NPR Music by National Public Radio, National Public Radio, Alison Fensterstock
Mini Audiobook Review: **I do not rate Non Fiction books**
I first saw this book one night while working at the library and thought it would be a fun one to dive into. Anyone who knows me on a personal level, knows my love for pop culture and music runs deep. So I knew I would enjoy this.
I did read this book primarily via audio but I did check the book out from the library just to see how it was formatted compared to the audio. The audiobook was narrated by a handful of narrators: Alison Fensterstock, Ann Powers, Janina Edwards, Hillary Huber, Maggi-Meg Reed, Chanté McCormick, Inés del Castillo. What made this really neat was that the audiobook has the actual sound recordings of the artist which matches the interviews in the book.
What made this really neat is that it focused on women musicians of ALL genres. And if you are dreading to learn or read about X artist, don't worry, each tidbit on the musicians are in small dosage and then they move on to the next. I think they did a wonderful job covering all the different female musicians from the early 1900s to current artists.
If you love music, this is one to have on your shelf and its just full of knowledge on these female artists.
