Synopsis "The Stone Cold Truth on Payola!: Cash, Cocaine, Cars, and The Music Biz (in English)"
From 1946 to 2014, Henry Stone ruled the Florida music industry with an iron fist, a brick of cash, and a warehouse full of vinyl. Starting out as the CEO of his own independent record distribution company selling 78s to jukebox operators out of the trunk of his car, he built a recording and distribution empire that sold hundreds of millions of physical units around the world. Stone is without rival in the industry. Here is the true story of the money, cars, and drugs that powered his radio promotion during the height of the dance floor packed 1970s. The irreverent record mogul also relates his insider knowledge on the "Payola Scandal" of 1959, and how he got Alan Freed a a job and apartment in Miami Beach after he took the fall for everybody. Henry Stone is ready to give the world his Stone Cold Truth on Payola. Stone worked directly in dialogue with co-author Jacob Katel in their collaboration to bring this book to life.
