Make Mine Mondo!

More Info

Pop music was different in the beginning and never more so than in California, where Hollywood’s dominance of the entertainment scene meant that Los Angeles was scarcely aware it had a music industry until hotshot producers such as Phil Spector, Snuff Garrett and Lou Adler finally put the town on the recording map in the mid-1960s. Nefarious, transient and unaccountable, the music biz was essentially a hidden profession, shielded from the sons and daughters of good Americans.
