33⅓ (Thirty-Three and a Third) is a series of books with each volume written about a single album.[1] The series title refers to the speed of a vinyl LP.[2]
History
Originally published by Continuum,[3] the series was founded by editor David Barker in 2003.[1] At the time, Continuum published books on philosophers; series editor Ally-Jane Grossan mentioned that Barker was "an obsessive music fan who thought, 'This is a really cool idea, why don't we apply this to albums'."[3] PopMatters wrote that the range consists of "obscure classics to more usual suspects by the Beach Boys, the Beatles, and the Rolling Stones".[1]
In 2010, Continuum was bought out by Bloomsbury Publishing, which continues to publish books in the series.[3] Barker was replaced by Grossan following his leave in January 2013.[2] In 2016, Daphne Brooks, Kevin Dettmarr, Amanda Petrusich, and Gayle Wald assumed co-editorial duties.
Published titles
As of January 2017[update], 118 books have been published.
