Highly recommend:

The Bastard Instrument
A Cultural History of the Electric Bass
by Wright, Brian F.

Remarkably similar in style and format to my #AccordionRevolution book

Readable text, good stories, many unheard of but memorable players

Focusing on the social changes around the instrument and in music

Add in some pictures and break into bite-sized chunks

Was there a seminar on readable music history books for disreputable instruments?

Loved it 🎸
