by W.RoyalStokes (Author)
In this vivid oral history, Stokes presents nearly a century of jazz--its people, places, periods, and styles--as seen by the artists who created America's most distinctive music. The words of musicians famous and little-known tell us about their origins and adventures, about the places and performers they have known. 26 rare photographs, most of which have never been published.
