Review # 1 was written on 2009-12-09 00:00:00 Keith Shaw Ok, I admit it, I'm a geek: before going to bed at night, I read a few pages of a textbook or some academic work, generally on jazz. This was the project book from the past couple of months. This wasn't bad, but it was pretty high level. I would take issue with their assessment of Wynton Marsalis as a towering figure at the level of Ellington, Parker, Davis, or Coltrane...after listening to jazz for 40+ years, I'd rate him as a relatively minor figure.

Review # 2 was written on 2021-01-15 00:00:00 john allen In anticipation of reading Crouch's book on Charlie Parker, and having seen him speak in such an erudite and informative manner on the Burns "Jazz" documentary, I thought it would be a good move to read this collection of his jazz writing and criticism. I liken reading this book to taking a master seminar with an incredible storyteller. Crouch has the incredible ability to evoke music, history, personal narratives, and the true swing and power of jazz music with his words. I found myself transported by the words, critical rigor, courage, and love of art in this book. It's a true testament to the importance and arc of jazz music.
