No Customer Reviews
Decca is one of the great global names in recorded music. From pioneering techniques that revolutionized classical recording, to the 1960s and '70s pop explosion, through to the classical revival in the 1990s and 2000s, the sheer diversity of Decca's story and its influence on 20th- and 21st-century music is unparalleled. Featuring rare photography and never-seen-before archival material, this sumptuously produced history includes twelve chapters covering Decca's foundation and growth, its characteristic sound, its boom during the pop years, and its involvement with acts that range from Vera Lynn to the Rolling Stones, from David Bowie, Luciano Pavarotti and the Three Tenors, to today's crossover superstars such as Andrea Bocelli and Sheku Kanneh-Mason. Full of lively anecdotes and insights into the label's broader contribution to culture, Decca: The Supreme Record Company is a treat for collectors, aficionados, and anyone fascinated by the development of modern music.
