Jazz gentry
Great book that gives insight to multiple eras of Jazz music. I especially enjoyed the interview portions of the book because it gave the sense that Williams not only respects these musicians, but is familiar with them in a more intimate way than just a mere critic. Several of the conversations would not be out of place at a coffee shop where two friends have gathered to fill each other in on what they had missed while being apart. Great book. If you love Jazz, pick this one up.
