Rock n Roll Grad School #83- The Rise of Arista Records

The 1970s were a magic time at the newly formed Arista Records. Overseen by Clive Davis, the label quickly became a contender with a murder's row of talent. Now, Mitchell Cohen has written the definitive history of the label, Looking for the Magic: New York City, the 70s and the Rise of Arista Records.

Also, we discuss this year's Gathering of the Juggalos, the new ICP filter and the exact size of Mitchell's book. You know, important stuff.

You can get Mitchell's book wherever you get your books. For more information, check out the website for publisher Trouser Press Books, or follow them on Facebook or Twitter.
