Book Review: Do The Devil's Work For Him: How To Make It In The Music Industry (And Stay In It!) 2009
This book is the thumb perfectly balancing your fans' metal horns
Putting down this book and picking up my mechanical pen to write this review feels right. Not just because the parting words advised, in
all capitals, to “put this book down and make something happen now”, but also because Amy Sciarretto and Rick Florino truly are the inspirational
forces on which the music business thrives. In their 2009 release, Do The Devil's Work For Him: How To Make It In The Music Industry (And Stay In It!,
Amy and Rick dole out the deeds and desires necessary to make it to that dream job.
Just about any person can understand the desire to be successful regardless of the given industry, and most who have ever worked in the music industry
know how difficult getting in and staying in really can be.
This book reads so easily, many will not be able to put it down. If the passion and positive energy grabs you like it grabbed me, you will finish this
132 page guide within an evening; hopefully before running out to cover a local show!
From local radio stations' homegrown networks to the national, glossy magazines, Amy and Rick provide the rundown, the how-to. Not just advice, but
anecdotes from having been there. Experience can not be given, but the guidelines and step-by-step breakdowns of just what to do and how to do it is
priceless.
Truly, Do The Devil's Work For Him: How To Make It In The Music Industry (And Stay In It!) generates the kick of passion necessary for any
hard-working wanna-be, whether it be a writer, publicist, label or magazine owner, to get through the night. Pay your dues early and never stop
believing in yourself, your dreams and your goals seems to be the most important message in this industry. Take it from Amy and Rick, digest this book
and “make something happen”.
