I was afraid the book would be too basic even for its 101 title when it first started out but as you get deeper into it the tips are better. In Part 2-- Recording it gets better and starts to give you advice that you might not have known. The Appendixes in the very back are actually better than you might expect. The way they show you how to work on the tracks to get your sound the way you want it make that part alone worth buying the book. --There are other sections such as setting up mics, traps , even websites to promote your band that are pretty good if you are new to recording.-- The parts about buying equipment or choosing band members aren't anything that you probably wouldn't have thought of, but they aren't useless either. They just fit into the primer attitude of the book on how to get started. -- All in all, you won't be mad at yourself for buying it and will probably learn some stuff from the more technical guides in the recording chapters.-- A nice intro to becoming a real band.
