Taylor\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom the early days of radio through the rise of television after World War II to the present, music has been used more and more to sell goods and establish brand identities. And since the 1920s, songs originally written for commercials have become popular songs, and songs written for a popular audience have become irrevocably associated with specific brands and products. Today, musicians move flexibly between the music and advertising worlds, while the line between commercial messages and popular music has become increasingly blurred. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTimothy D. Taylor tracks the use of music in American advertising for nearly a century, from variety shows like \u003ci\u003eThe Clicquot Club Eskimos\u003c\/i\u003e to the rise of the jingle, the postwar upsurge in consumerism, and the more complete fusion of popular music and consumption in the 1980s and after. \u003ci\u003eThe Sounds of Capitalism\u003c\/i\u003e is the first book to tell truly the history of music used in advertising in the United States and is an original contribution to this little-studied part of our cultural history. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eTimothy D.
