  This is a history source book for the researcher, enthusiast or interested newcomer to jazz and its study. Max Jones collected interviews; the list of more than 60 musicians includes Eubie Blake, Count Basie, Coleman Hawkins, Billie Holiday and Joe Venuti. Many of the interviews are printed in full rather than as they were edited for his pieces in Melody Maker and shed much light on the wide-ranging lives and styles of each musician.
