5.0 out of 5 stars
A book of biographies,
By Arena Connery "Arena" (Wisconsin USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: American Big Bands (Book) (Paperback)
After a few pages of interesting quotes by the big names in big band (both conductors and singers,) Dr. Taylor commences with over 350 pages of biographies and timelines for each decade of big band, beginning with the early 1900s. This is a wonderful reference for any music lover. The timelines give the stories of the musicians a new dimension. With the decline of 'classic' big bands, the sections on the 60s through the 90s don't have as much information, but they do discuss 'ghost bands' and the future of big bands.

Great Resource,
This review is from: American Big Bands (Book) (Paperback)
As a brief reference guide to any and all of the big bands, this book can't be beat. I own several similar books by other authors, but as a summary bio, this is the best!
