This book is primarily concerned with the story of traditional jazz
in Edinburgh since the mid-nineteen forties; that is, traditional
jazz played in and around Edinburgh by local jazz musicians and
bands. It is not much concerned with jazz played in and around
Edinburgh by visiting bands, professional or otherwise, except in
passing and when such bands have had a marked effect on local jazz,
this being especially the case in the early years. Similarly, the
significant number of local jazz musicians who went on to become
distinguished or even famous professional players at a UK or
international level, will primarily be discussed in respect of
their careers when playing in Edinburgh in local bands, rather than
their contributions in a wider and better known context. In some
cases, the wider reputations will be covered more than adequately
in more resounding publications than this.
