Subversive Sounds,

This review is from: Subversive Sounds: Race and the Birth of Jazz in New Orleans (Hardcover)
This is a fascinating work about the origins of jazz in New Orleans. It is replete with biographical information on many of the key players, and references to specific jazz compositions. It is especially rich in its discussion of the relationship between the development of jazz and race relations, highlighting the role of each of the major racial groups (whites, African Americans, and Creoles). Readers familar with the history of Storyville will still learn alot from this book.
