"A most valuable and engrossing book that will surely be read by all those who write about jazz. Fans will also seek it out. It offers a wealth of perspectives, allowing the reader to learn what people in other disciplines have to say about jazz."--Lewis Porter, author, with Michael Ullman, of "Jazz: From Its Origins to the Present"
