Soda Goes Pop: Pepsi-Cola Advertising and Popular Music: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Soda Goes Pop: Pepsi-Cola Advertising and Popular Music" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

From its 1939 Nickel, Nickel jingle to pathbreaking collaborations with Michael Jackson and Madonna to its pair of X Factor commercials in 2011 and 2012, Pepsi-Cola has played a leading role in drawing the American pop music industry into a synergetic relationship with advertising. This idea has been copied successfully by countless other brands over the years, and such commercial collaboration is commonplace todaybut how did we get here? How and why have pop music aesthetics been co-opted to benefit corporate branding? What effect have Pepsis music marketing practices in particular had on other brands, the advertising industry, and popular music itself?Soda Goes Pop investigates these and other vital questions around the evolving relationships between popular music and corporate advertising. Joanna K. Love joins musical analysis, historical research, and cultural theory to trace parallel shifts in these industries over eight decades. In addition to scholarly and industry resources, she draws on first-hand accounts, pop culture magazines, trade press journals, and other archival materials. Pepsis longevity as an influential American brand, its legendary commercials, and its pioneering, relentless pursuit of alliances with American musical stars makes the brand a particularly instructive point of focus. Several of the companys most famous ad campaigns are prime examples of the practice of redaction, whereby marketers select, censor, and restructure musical texts to fit commercial contexts in ways that revise their aesthetic meanings and serve corporate aims. Ultimately, Love demonstrates how Pepsis marketing has historically appropriated and altered images of pop icons and the meanings of hit songs, and how these commercials shaped relationships between the American music business, the advertising industry, and corporate brands.Soda Goes Pop is a rich resource for scholars and students of American studies, popular culture, advertising, broadcast media, and musicology. It is also an accessible and informative book for the general reader, as Loves musical and theoretical analyses are clearly presented for non-specialist audiences and readers with varying degrees of musical knowledge.About the AuthorJoanna K. Love is Associate Professor of Music at the University of Richmond.

It takes a village to write a book, especially one that is almost a decade in the making. I would have to write another one as long as this to properly honor all of the wonderful mentors, colleagues, friends, and family members who have supported me along the way. Since the interest of space prevents such an endeavor, I name as many as possible here and hope that those, both named and unnamed, are aware of my deep and sincere appreciation.

I first thank my brilliant mentors at the University of California, Los Angeles, who helped me to cultivate many of the ideas present in this book. I am especially appreciative of Timothy D. Taylor, Mitchell Morris, and Douglas Kellner. I owe a very special note of thanks to Robert Fink, who guided me through each step of this process.

I express my sincere gratitude to my amazing colleagues who took the time to read and comment on individual chapters. I thank Marianna Ritchey, Alexandra Apolloni, Ross Fenimore, Jillian Rodgers, Samuel Baltimore, Lindsay Johnson, Sarah Gerk, and Danielle Sirek, as well as colleagues at the University of Richmond, including Rania Sweis, Mariela Mndez, Erika Damer, Julianne Guillard, and Eric Grollman. I extend my deepest gratitude to Danijela Kulezic-Wilson, who read the entire manuscript and offered insightful feedback to prepare it for review. I am also deeply appreciative of Karen Ahlquist and all those involved with the 2015 publication of the Journal for the Society of American Music article that would become portions of chapter 2.

I am further grateful for the opportunity to workshop various sections of this book at the first two Junior Faculty Symposiums sponsored by the Page x American Musicological Societys Popular Music Study Group. There were unfortunately too many attendees and mentors to name here, but I do want thank those who offered substantial feedback on early drafts, including Robynn Stilwell, Neil Lerner, Susan Fast, Brian Wright, Dan Blim, Kim Mack, and Katherine Reed. I especially thank the symposium coordinators, Eric Hung and Daniel Goldmark.

The University of Richmond has also provided me with invaluable resources for this project. I sincerely thank the Department of Music, and especially Jessie Fillerup, Andy McGraw, and Jeffrey Riehl for their support. I also acknowledge our wonderful music librarian and musicologist Linda Fairtile for helping to locate various materials. This project surely would not have been feasible without funding from the School of Arts & Sciences, Deans Office under the direction of Kathleen Skerrett and Patrice Rankine. I am further grateful for summer support allocated by the Faculty Research Committee.

I express my sincerest gratitude to the American Association of University Women, which made the completion of this book possible with a 201617 American Post-Doctoral Fellowship. I also thank those who provided access to essential archival materials, including Kay Peterson at the Archives Center of the National Museum of American History, Smithsonian Institution, and Martin Gostanian, who not only guided me through the materials available at the Paley Center for Media in Los Angeles but recommended excellent sources outside of the collection.

As always, I thank my strong network of family and friends. There are too many to name here, but I am forever indebted to John and Kathleen Love; Bill, Judy, and Kellen Evans; Christin Schillinger; and of course my rock and beloved, Mark Sanborn. Not least, I thank the University of Michigan Press and its exceptional faculty, staff, and reviewers. I am especially appreciative of Mary Francis who skillfully shepherded this book across the finish line along with Sarah Dougherty, Susan Cronin, and Kevin Rennells.

Forty-one years after a North Carolina pharmacist named Caleb D. Bradham compounded a fountain drink that would become known as Pepsi-Cola, Walter Mack was appointed the companys president and chief executive officer (CEO). The year was 1939, and the Phoenix Securities firm had been put in charge of mitigating the losses and lawsuits that plagued Pepsi and its parent company at the time, Loft Inc. Mack was cofounder and vice president of the securities company, but he would soon resign to devote his full attention to running the nascent soda brand.

The once failing company had finally begun to see gains due to its promise of 12-ounce bottles for only a nickela bargain that doubled Pepsis profits during the 1930s depression era. But even with its recent success Mack recognized that the brand needed a major image makeover to sustain its profitability. He knew the companys future rested on the ability of its consumers and franchised bottlers to invest in the company name, so he set out to streamline the look of its logo, as well as the products packaging. He also hired the Newell-Emmet advertising agency to create a nationwide marketing campaign that would solidify Pepsis value and win over potential consumers. The new campaign produced highly successful skywriting promotions, as well as a cartoon comic strip called
