I have to admit, I didn't read Appendix 2 but since I knew the music well enough I didn't feel I needed to.

I enjoyed this essay. I think the author is smart, I think she did her research, and I love her writing style. Her humour is apparent, and her scathing critique of her own behaviour and biases was refreshing. Was this perfect? No, but does it need to be? This was a great look into an influential decade and the women who shaped Canadian music. 4 stars.

No book can live up to this premise. My personal, "You Learn"-quoting bar was set far too high for this semi-memoir extended cut long read.
