Customer Reviews

A good place to start

This is a compact, reader-friendly guide -- a good entry point into what is becoming a dauntingly large literature of jazz. Some sections are set up like a reference book, with alphabetized entries, making this a keeper for looking things up in future. Others provide good topical overviews. I recommend this book to students in my introductory "Evolution of Jazz" course. One quibble: no entry for "mainstream jazz."
