description: What is it about popular music that makes it so pervasive in our society, influences our emotions, can make us tear up or want to dance? For author Don Tanner, that music has always been as vital as breathing-signed, sealed, delivered most effectively and influentially through radio.In No Static at All, Tanner, a former radio DJ and reporter (WWJ-AM in Detroit), music programmer, consultant (Mediabase) and journalist, takes you behind the scenes and behind the microphone, to see and hear what it's really like to live on-the-air-from the ground floor up. It also examines why radio is at a crossroads today and what it will take for a brighter tomorrow.It's a 50,000-watt, clear channel journey through radio tubes, grooves, news and career moves, where you're in the zone one minute and dodging kamikaze pilots the next. From 45s and 33s to iPods and MP3s. Don't touch that dial!
