I am happy to note that the Oxford Handbook of Pop Music is now published -- as an e-Book at least. It was a pleasure to work on this project with so many terrific writers and thinkers. Nudge your library for access, please, but nudge me if that is not an option. academic.oup.com/edited-volum...
The Pop Conference deadline is less than three weeks away: October 22. Please, join me in spreading the word today. PopCon thrives on its ties to both lifelong presenters and dynamic new presenters. Got something good to speak to our Mayhem? Send in a proposal! www.popconference.org

I should probably avoid much comment on that New Yorker piece; have to prep for my Rock, Soul, Hip-Hop, and Country course, where this week we are reading the first chapter of the textbook, Major Labels, by one K. Sanneh.
psst: new Pop Conference call. Repost please. www.popconference.org
Also, will these substack essays be findable years from now? Eric, maybe pitch a fuller version of this to Ari Kelman at Reviews in American History . . .
