THE COMMERCIAL ALBUM
Liner Notes
CD Liner Notes
• Point one: Pop music is mostly a repetition of two types
of musical and lyrical phrases, the verse and the chorus.
•
Point two: These elements usually repeat three times in a
three minute song, the type usually found on top-40
radio.
• Point three: Cut out the fat and a pop song is
only one minute long. Then record albums can hold their own
top-40, twenty minutes per side.
• Point four: One minute
is also the length of most commercials, and therefore their
corresponding jingles.
• point five: Jingles are the music
of America.
• Conclusion: This compact disc is terrific in
shuffle play. To convert the jingles to pop music, program
each song to repeat three times.
