Jazz by Ian Carr

Jazz by Ian Carr

This reference book covers the whole range of jazz from Buddy Bolden, pioneer of jazz trumpet, to young players of the 1990s, like Roy Hargrove. It is a completely revised edition of the "Essential Guide to Jazz", featuring updated and expanded entries, over 300 new artists, and the authors' personal recommendations of some 3000 key albums. The guide is both a "Who's Who" of jazz, detailing careers and developments, and a buyer's companion to the best albums on CD and vinyl. It features A-Z critical biographies of nearly 2000 musicians with reviews of their key recordings. A glossary gives concise explanations of all the crucial terms and ideas, from swing to neo-bop, and from improvisation to harmolodics. It is illustrated throughout with photographs of the greatest players in action. The authors are all jazz musicians themselves, and bring a musician's inside knowledge of the music and the scene. Trumpeter Ian Carr is a biographer of Miles Davis, and trumpeter Digby Fairweather and pianist Brian Priestley are broadcasters.
