As founder and owner of the legendary store Norman's Rare Guitars, he has sold some of the finest fretted string instruments to the biggest stars in the world, including George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, and many others. In 1970 Harris moved to Los Angeles in hopes of hitting the big time in music. His first plan was performing, but plan B was buying and selling guitars, and he had no idea how much opportunity for this there would be. Many groups came to LA also hoping to hit it big, but those who didn't might have to sell their instruments. This helped make early-1970s Los Angeles a haven for beautiful vintage guitars. At the same time, Hollywood was beginning to realize the value of time-correct instruments in film, and the recording industry recognized the high-quality sound vintage instruments produced. The value of these instruments has grown dramatically since the '70s, and the vintage guitar market has become an international phenomenon with Norman Harris at the center of it all. Filled with fascinating stories and insights into the entertainment business, Confessions of a Vintage Guitar Dealer is an intriguing memoir from a man who has spent a lifetime getting extraordinary instruments into the hands of extraordinary artists."--Publisher description. 606 $aGuitar$xCollectors and collecting 606 $aBusinessmen$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aGuitar$zUnited States$xHistory 615 0$aGuitar$xCollectors and collecting. 615 0$aBusinessmen 615 0$aGuitar$xHistory. 676 $a787.8719092 700 $aHarris$b Norman W.$f1949-$01483313 702 $aYorkin$b David 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793318403321 996 $aConfessions of a vintage guitar dealer$93701361 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02868oam 22006615 450 001 9910783254603321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a1-280-15798-4 010 $a9786610157983 010 $a0-8213-6044-2 024 7 $a10.1596/0-8213-6043-4 035 $a(CKB)1000000000031534 035 $a(EBL)459840 035 $a(OCoLC)60716298 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000086439 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11112456 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000086439 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10026110 035 $a(PQKB)11598469 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC459840 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL459840 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10081844 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL15798 035 $a(The World Bank)2005043405 035 $a(US-djbf)13893882 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000031534 100 $a20050309d2005 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcn||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aEconomic growth in the 1990s : $elearning from a decade of reform 210 1$aWashington, D.C. :$cWorld Bank,$dc2005. 215 $axvi, 364 pages $ccolor illustrations ;$d27 cm 300 $aThis report was prepared by a team led by Roberto Zagha, under the general direction of Gobind Nankani. 311 $a0-8213-6043-4 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p. 331-356) and index. 327 $aContents; Foreword; Acknowledgments; 1 Overview; Figures; Part 1: Facts of the 1990's; Boxes; Tables; Part 2: Development Controversies of the 1990's; Bibliography; Index 330 $aThis book is part of a larger effort undertaken by the World Bank to understand the development experience of the 1990's, an extraordinary eventful decade.
