(Book). In this funny and insightful investigation, Steve Karmen dubbed the "King of the Jingle" by People magazine takes us back to a time when consumers happily sang along to "Pepsi Cola Hits the Spot," "This Bud's for You," and "Hershey Is the Great American Chocolate Bar," and brings us to the era of borrowed melodies, electronic sounds, and lyrics that never mention the name of the product. Did Madison Avenue get too sophisticated for its own good? Too cheap? Too sneaky?

Karmen explores the demise of the advertising music business and why the future of advertising is so precarious.
