Unless someone else has already volunteered, I would be delighted to host this bibliography on an audio history site I’m developing. Estimated go-live date is early May, because it’s a project for grad school and I have to have it up and running before finals!!

I am currently researching American pop music of the acoustic era and I've found that in general histories of recorded sound, the acoustic era is often treated as a footnote to everything that came after it. For those who focus on that period, could you please recommend what your indispensable list of books about recording production and history during the acoustic era are? (Meaning not straight discogs or catalogs, per se.) I'm looking for info more about the production side rather than the recording personalities (although there is of course overlap in many cases.) I am a classically trained musician with a background in music history (albeit medieval studies) so please don't be afraid to suggest more technical works. Thanks so much in advance!
