Abstract "When a musician dies, it is rarely the end of their story. While death can propel megastars to even further success, artists overlooked in their lifetime might also find a new type of fame. But a badly timed move or the wrong deal can see the artist die all over again ... Drawing on interviews with those running music estates as well as music lawyers, record company executives, and archivists, Leaving the Building reveals how the music industry is constantly striving to perfect the business of death"-- Publisher marketing
