Customer Reviews

the best book on jazz ever written

an scholar approach full of wisdom and wit very, very insightful and entertaining one of the few real serious investigations

A classic!

Dr. Stearns's book still stands as a good source and has many clever insights. But Collier's "The Making of Jazz" clearly surpassed this book as the best history of Jazz.
