And Party Every Day: The Inside Story of Casablanca Records, released in 2009, is a definitive account of this particular music industry powerhouse record label of the 1970's. It was written by the then senior vice president Larry Harris. The title is taken from the chorus of the KISS rock anthem "Rock and Roll All Nite".This book traces the history of the label from its inception as a Warner Bros (WB). subsidiary label started by Neil Bogart. Before the label started signing acts, the label released a few one off records by artists such as Bill (now Barb) Amesbury and Peter Noone, but soon, signed other acts, such as KISS (the label's first signing) The Hudson Brothers, Donna Summer, Parliament, Buddy Miles, Greg Perry, Hugh Masekela and the Village People, to it becoming fully independent after Neil Bogart broke free from WB, mainly because WB refused to promote KISS, even though they would become their top selling act during it's 1970's heyday, with Donna Summer, Parliament, Angel, Fanny (an all girl rock band that featured Suzi Quatro's sister Patti), Larry Santos (a much underrated blue eyed jazz and soul singer-songwriter who was actually a very good and talented artist in his own right) and Village People rounding out their top sellers. They also later signed established acts such as Mac Davis, Dr. Hook, Tony Orlando and the Captain and Tennille. Casablanca would also have three subsidiary labels, such as Chocolate City (which later became Atlanta Artists after the 1980 Polygram buyout) and the short lived Oasis (which was the label that Donna Summer's records were released on initially) and Parachute (later used as a short lived children's music subsidiary through Polygram). The book also shows how tough it was to run a record label and also, the label became a haven for wild parties loaded with drugs and alcohol. Casablanca went to the extremes in promoting all of its acts during its 1970's heyday and also engaged in risks that the other record labels were afraid to do, such as try to pay people at music trades such as Billboard to up the anty on their records on the charts to make it look like that their records were selling mighty huge and also, it also shows the mistakes of the label, such as the ill fated release of "Here's Johnny: Magical Moments from the Tonight Show" and the KISS solo album debacle of 1978, alongside the passing of signing Canadian rock band Rush (who were later signed by future Polygram imprint Mercury Records for US distribution and becoming one of the dominant rock bands of the 1970's 1980's and 1990's) and the passing of signing Dire Straits and Peter Gabriel, alongside with the decline of disco (where the label had most of the monopoly on as they had more disco acts on it than most of the other labels did, with KISS and Angel being the sole rock and roll acts on the label) as Casablanca was feeling the fallout on, which led to Polygram buying out the label and dismissing Neil Bogart as label CEO and also, the termination of Harris and most of the staff who had been with the label since its inception. The book also has a nearly complete discography of the label's album releases (with only Animotion's Strange Behavior missing as that was the label's final album release in 1986) that has nearly all of the label's releases from its inception and after the Polygram buyout in 1980. It also has where are they now pages on those who recorded and worked for the label during it's heyday in the 1970's. This book covers its entire history and nothing is left out.Larry Harris, who was senior vice president, was also Neil Bogart's cousin and as a result of his smarts and business know how, was hired by Bogart to be senior vice president. He and Neil worked hard to get their artists' records out and tried almost anything to get the records out to the stores and also, hype them to the extremes to get the records sold. Harris writes with style and flair as he shares his entire career with the label from its inception until its end after the Polygram buyout. Harris writes well in his book about his entire career and leaves nothing out. The book also features pictures of him, Neil and many other employees and many industry insiders on how they worked to promote the label and its established acts. The book is a definitive account of this 1970's powerhouse label and how hard it worked to make sure that the records got out to the shops, then promoting its acts and also, hyping to make sure that music buyers bought the records it released onto the public so the public could buy them.Neil Bogart died in 1982 at the age of 39 of cancer. KISS paid tribute to him by dedicating their Creatures of the Night album to his memory as a way of thanking him for giving them a chance and believing in them, even though nobody else in the big time music industry didn't. The author would die 35 years later in 2017. May they both forever RIP.Overall, And Party Every Day; The Inside Story of Casablanca Records is a great well written book and a definitive account of the label's history and the day to day business of the label from its inception until its end. No fan of any of its musical acts or music lovers should be without this book in their respective libraries of music and label biographies. I highly recommend this book as great reading and also, very informative and right on.
