This review is from: Fifties Jazz Talk: An Oral Retrospective (Studies in Jazz) (Paperback)
This is an excellent compilation of interviews with jazz artists from the 1950's. Some famous some fairly obscure. It is part of the Rutgers University Studies in Jazz series of publications.It makes for fascinating reading. Many interesting anecdotes from artists such as Mose Allison,Dave Bailey,Bob Brookmeyer,Bill Crow,Herb Geller, Frank Isola,Lee Konitz, Gerry Mulligan, Lennie Niehaus, Hod O'Brien,Phil Urso and Phil Woods. They speak of their own careers as well as many of the great musicians like Charlie Parker,Sonny Stitt, Dizzy Gillespie, Bud Powell,Chet Baker, Miles Davis,Stan Getz,Stan Kenton,Joe Maini,Gene Quill,Red Rodney, Zoot Sims,Lennie Tristano etc. Very valuable!
